State Farm Stadium, GCU hosting Super Smash Bros. tournament to fundraise for foster children

Before the Arizona Cardinals take on the San Francisco 49ers on Nov. 16, gamers will battle in a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournament at State Farm Stadium to raise funds for children in foster care.

Arizona’s Children Association, Grand Canyon University and the Cardinals partnered to set up a two-day tournament, with Day 1 at the GCU Esports Arena and 16 finalists making it to Day 2 at State Farm Stadium. 

    When players sign up to register, they will get the choice of a Cardinals ticket. Game tickets are included in the package. Tournament competitors will receive postgame photo opportunities on the field, while $20 from each ticket will go toward Arizona’s Children Association.

    “As someone who was adopted at 13, I understand the importance of finding a place where you belong,” Jay DeShong, director of GCU Esports, said in a release. “Esports gave me that outlet in a way to compete, connect and grow without financial barriers. Hosting this tournament allows us to celebrate gaming while supporting a cause that changes lives.”
