Rim Rattler 3-On-3 San Luis Obispo
Tourney June 5 & 6--(April 29, 1999)

If you missed out on the NBA Hoop-It-Up 3-on-3 Challenge, or if you can't get enough of the half-court game, then you'll want to reserve the weekend of June 5 & 6 and make plans to travel up to San Luis Obispo for the Rim Rattler 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament. Ok, so San Luis Obispo seems like a long way to drive for a 3 on 3 tournament, but hey, it's a great area, and if you've never been up that way, you'll appreciate the warm sunny weather, the close proximity to the beaches, and the clean air and reasonably priced accomodations. Here are the details:

What: Rim Rattler/SLO 3 on 3 Basketball Classic
Where: Downtown San Luis Obispo (3 hours north of L.A., 3.5 hours south of S.F., 2 hours west of Fresno)
Who: 6 divisions (Open A - H.S./College experience; Open B (Weekend Warriors); Legends (Over 35); Womens Open; High School Boys (18 & under); High School Girls (18 & under)
Cost: $95 - guaranteed 3 games
Sponsors: San Luis Obispo Parks & Rec Dept and Rim Rattler

The e-mail we received also said something about a "Live D.J" who "will be performing each day" and we just hope that it's not the same group of guys who were at Pauley Pavilion for the Dada thing. :-). There will also be a special kids area where the youngsters can show their skills and win prizes. All players will receive: Free tri-tip BBQ dinner, Hospitality Snack & Beverage Area, Free Event T-Shirt, Free Event Hat, Free Players Bag (includes: socks, water bottle, antenna ball, key chain, stickers & more), and we all know that you can't have too many antenna balls, right? There will also be several kinds of contests, including a slam dunk contest (with prizes to top 3 finishers), a three point shootout (again with prizes to top 3), and there will be drawings throughout the weekend for free Rim Rattler clothing.
