They used to call it “Four In A Row”. The even older version was called “The Captain’s Mistress”. By the time the game came out in 1974, it was renamed “Connect Four”, and this two player game has become an American staple, championed the world over. The Bell House is very proud to present, the world’s BIGGEST Connect Four championship beginning on November 3.

Connect Four is a two-player game in which the players first choose a color and then take turns dropping their colored checkers from the top into a seven-column, six-row vertically-suspended grid. The pieces fall straight down, occupying the next available space within the column. The object of the game is to connect four of one’s own discs of the same color next to each other vertically, horizontally, or diagonally before one’s opponent can do so.

The Bell House will begin the preliminaries in the front lounge on November 3 and by connecting four Tuesdays in a row, after many rounds of red vs. black, we will declare a Connect Four champion of Brooklyn on November 24th in the main space on a MONSTER sized, custom made Connect Four board.

Well drinks & select pints are only $4 from 7pm on. Big cash prizes for the winner plus bar tabs, gift certificates, board games, and all kinds of fun for the runners-up, lest we forget the glory of winning: priceless.

Registration for night two is open to anyone 21+. Winners from this qualifier will come back to compete against winners from the other 2 nights in the final tournament on November 24!
