‘WAR! at the Market’ — Robots will battle Saturday on Capitol Hill

It will be “WAR! at the Market” Saturday on Capitol Hill.

Western Allied Robotics combatants will gather Saturday at 15th Ave E’s Quality Flea Center for a day of tournaments and robot on robot martial violence.

The event is free for spectators but serious business for members of the Pacific Northwest robotic combat club. Organizers are planning a giant arena and more than 20 tables for teams to prepare their wired gladiators and make repairs.

The fights go down Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM at 416 15th Ave E.
