So anyone that knows me knows that I am a big computer gamer. I even go to large computer gaming events to compete in games and to have fun. Normally I'll only go to events that are near where I live. (the East SF Bay Area)
So last month a couple of friends of mine asked me to fly from California to Phoenix, AZ for the weekend (June 13th and 14th) to play in a Call of Duty 4 competition with them at a LAN. Although I had very little money, I said sure I'll go, so they had a full team. While one of my 2 friends was willing to pay for other people to fly to the event so their travel cost were lower, I asked for no help, and funded my own trip
