11.1.05 Get out your Wet Ones, we’re about to grub on some downhome Mississippi style BBQ. That's right, the Vibe Game Tour took over Jackson State in Mississippi, where people stood in line just to play video games. Also going down was an MC battle where cats where holding down on the mic for their chance to win a Boost Phone. But by midday, the BBQs started upm and you could smell the ribs for miles. That's when the students came from far and wide. But they could not eat until they took a quick minute to stop and listen to the masterminds of the Game Behind the Game. The panelists gave some great advice on how to get your foot in the door and make it in the industry.
10.31.05 The Game Behind The Game made a stop at Alabama A&M University on Monday—Halloween night. All the ghost were out to see what was up with the Game Behind The Game, and as always the panelists kept it real and told the kids how it was in the real world. The gaming was crazy with everyone wanting to try their hand at Halo2 to be king of the hill and win a new Boost Phone.
10.26.05 Grambling State University
Stop three of the Game Behind The Game was the best so far. A crowd of 150 students sat, listened and soaked in all the valuable information given by the panelists. Like the other stops, the energy from the participants was great and made it easy for the panelists to relay their message in a non-conventional way. The students on campus were very appreciative as they invited all the panelists to a comedy show—a part of their Homecoming week activities.
10.25.05 Prairie View A&M
If you feed them, they will come! That was the plan and it worked perfectly as 75 to 100 college students came out to the Game Behind the Game at Prairie View A&M in Texas. The room was full of energy as the panel answered many questions for the students—enlightening them on how to get behind the game to make a living. After the formal part of the forum, about 25 kids hung around for an additional hour to pick the brains of our guests and get all the info they could take away from the session.
10.24.05 Texas Southern University
Stop one of the twenty-stop college tour started off at Texas Southern University. The Game Behind the Game has officially begun and started off with a bang. The students that came and stayed received some valuable information from our panel. Starting off the day, Yardfest was a huge draw, as Bubba Sparxxx touched the stage and electrified the crowd.
