Thousands turn out for eSports convention

Isaiah Bradshaw of Jetmore, Kansas, is just like any other person out there. He has a wife, a kid, and a full-time job. He also has a recognizable passion for video games.

“My grandma used to play Super Mario with me,” Bradshaw said. “My father, my brother, my siblings, we all played video games.”

He bought himself a PC, and started the steady grind of playing the popularized game, Fortnite.

Bradshaw is one of 1,000 plus video game lovers that made the trek to Wichita for the Midwest eSports Convention. Bradshaw went on to compete in convention’s Fortnite Challenge.
