Ahhh Ramp Riot is a great event for teams situated within the Delaware Valley or anywhere within a 3 hour radius. 341 knows how to put on a excellent showing for new rookies and future teams. Sadly, I will not be attending this year do to college but I hope the best for Daisy at the event and I know they will not disappoint.

TEAMS,

If you are still looking for an offseason event, go to RR; you will not regret it.

I always feel that Ramp Riot is so great because of the TEAMS!!
1647 is definitely one of those teams that makes Ramp Riot so competitive and so much fun!

Ramp Riot is one of my favorite events, including season events. It is a great venue with great people, a great team running it, many other great teams attending, and great competition! What more can you ask for?

I am not sure if I will be able to attend, but I will definitely try to come.
