Soft Tip Darts Tournament at SCC 2023

Sin City Classic XVI 2023 is in the books! What an incredible tournament organized and executed by Anthony-Paul’s Event Planning hosted by QUADZ Video Bar Las Vegas and supported by Atmosphere Bar Chicago and AAC Dart League. The effort and love put into the event was evident in the camaraderie and enjoyment shared by all participants.

AAC Dart League was represented by John Nino, Michael Pfeifer and Dave Sawyer (team ‘Double Tops’), and Juan Munoz. The league represented — reaching podium in three of four events! Check out a few pics from the shenanigans and start getting ready for next year!

Congrats to all the darters — you make this event what it is, amazing!

Sin City Classic XVI

The sixteenth Sin City Classic is just two weeks away. More than 8,000 athletes from around the world come together for a weekend filled with competition, social events and fun!

AAC Darts’ very own Juan Munoz and Pauli Cook from team @mosFierce of Atmosphere Bar host the soft-tip darts tournament as part of this fabulous event. This is their third year volunteering to run the tournament for darters from across the United States and the world. Competition consists of a partner and individual match for the 501 and Cricket formats.

We have a few more darters from our league who will be traveling to Las Vegas in a couple weeks to represent Chicago and the AAC Darts League including John Nino, Mike Pfeifer and Dave Sawyer. John Nino is teaming up with former league member, Ryan Whitney, for their second consecutive year playing together in the tournament. Dave and Pfeifer are teaming up as team “Double Tops” to resurrect their failed attempt to partner last year (thanks COVID!).

Tournament dates are Jan 14-15 and is being held at QUADZ Las Vegas. Don’t forget to ask the darters about the tournament when you see them after!
