World Series of Video Games Ready to Rumble

June is a popular month for wrapping up sports championships as both the NBA and NHL crown their season's best. But don't overlook the World Series of Video Gaming starting June 21 in Louisville. With the release of new gaming systems, such as Xbox 360 (2005), and PS3 and Wii (both last year), these "athletes" are game for anything and are taking their "sport" to new heights (despite being just 3 1/2 off the ground and mostly stationary).

Think it's child's play? Think again. Last year's WSVG had 20 hours of TV coverage on MTV, CBS, College Sports TV and Gameplay HD, dished out $1 million in purse money and prizes, and attracted 100,000 spectators and participants, about the same amount that fill a sold-out Rose Bowl.

So game on and good luck!
