Past Results

It Never Drains in Southern California began back in 2012 with only 45 players packed into the back of a sports bar in downtown Riverside, CA. After a two year stop at a bowling alley in San Dimas and a few years as part of the former Museum of Pinball’s INDISC Pinball Festival, we’ll be competing for the first time at Riverside Convention Center as part of Riverside Game Lab’s Festival of Fights event.
