The board was made by my roommate brian and our friend jeff. the story behind the idea for the life size connect 4 goes: when the duck duck first opened, jeff and brian, two connect 4 enthusiasts, were thrilled to find a regular milton bradley connect 4 game. they were also very pleased to learn that the owner of the duck duck was a fan of the game. they called another friend and told him to "come to the duck duck, they have connect 4, it's huge." the friend misunderstood and expected to find a giant connect 4 game.
brian and jeff decided that was a great idea, and began constructing the 5 foot tall board and the chips. their hard work paid off, the results are a fully functioning connect four board with a working chip release slider and beautiful chips each painted with the duck duck logo.
the bartenders will bring out the board upon request any day of the week (space permitting) and wednesday nights they have a connect 4 night.
check the calendar on the window of duck duck for connect 4 tournament nights.
