GGL Global Gaming Announces New Big Air Gaming League

Today GGL Global Gaming announced their new “Big Air Gaming League (BAGL),” which just adds to the list of GGL’s Sports and Celebrity League Series. The launch of this new Gaming League will be presented by GameStop at The Honda Session on February 7, 2008.

Here is info on the BAGL from the press release:

“Open to amateur gamers everywhere, the February 8-10, 2008, competition will attract extreme sports athletes and enthusiasts from all over the globe. As the case with other GGL leagues, BAGL will include top sports professionals including snowboarders, skaters and major celebrities. The format will consist of three live public tournaments throughout the year and feature popular titles such as Guitar Hero III and other top games.”

The winner of the BAGL Honda Competition will receive the Commissioners’ necklace, and will be named the 2008 BAGL commissioner. The winners of the year long competition will receive prizes such as cash, trips to the 2009 Honda Session and customized snowboards.

Director of Partnership Alliances and Tournaments for GameStop, Joseph Heilner, said “As the number one retailer for videogamers nationwide, bringing GGL’s experience with online videogame competition and creating social networking for game players makes them a natural partner for us.” It will be interesting to see what all professionals and celebrities sign up for this competition, and who will come out of the 2008 Honda Session as the BAGL commissioner.
