That actually sounds pretty cool to me - play DDR at your school and then move on to play kids from other schools? That would be a lot of fun.

Perhaps they're hoping younger kids won't complain about the way the tournament will be ran.

Either way, I think it's a cool idea. I wish they did stuff like this when I was in school.

Perhaps they're hoping kids who don't really play DDR won't complain about the way the tournament will be run.

But yeah that is pretty sweet. I hope it catches on in more states than just West Virginia.

... I wish they had these at my school.  I'd be able to place pretty high I'd think.
