Big Fish Internet Hub is hosting an event for Ragnarok Online this coming Friday, June 8, 2007!

Below is an article from Carlo San Juan`s Blog. Carlo San Juan is currently serving as Ragnarok Brand Manager for Levelup! Games which is one of our partners.

The cafe is along E. Rodriguez in Quezon City. I`m trying to get the cafe owner to give us a map so we can post it on the official website. We were thinking of doing another BTA but it`s getting really old. We`ve been doing it the entire summer and we wanted to try something new. Instead of just doing a BTA, we`ve come up with a completely new live event called the "Monsters Strike Back!". Oh yeah - we`re giving away an headgear that you won`t find anywhere else - the Valkyrie Feather Headband! More details on the event and the headgear after the jump.

These mechanics are directly quoted from the Ragnarok official website.
