Professional E-Sports Arena Opening Soon in Columbus, Ohio

[RiBBz22]

A new dedicated E-Sports arena is headed to the Mid-West, opening soon in Columbus, OH. Check out the link below for more information. Hopefully this can be used to host fighting games along with staples like RTS and FPS titles...especially with MKX nearly a half-year away.

The United States will be getting its first pro-focused esports arena in Columbus, Ohio when Major League Gaming opens the doors to MLG.tv Arena in late-October. An existing building close to Easton Mall will be revamped with "a main stage set up, sound proof booths, lights, video screens, bleachers, monitors, IT and video equipment to broadcast via MLG.tv," Katie Goldberg of MLG tells SB Nation.

Saw this on Engadget and immediately became giddy. But does this mean we will be getting an MLG event there on the grand opening of the arena?

Edit: Naw, probably not a major MLG event, at least. It would be too late of a notice for something like that.
