It comes as no surprise that Pinebox Rock Shop, Bushwick’s diveiest bar that serves only vegan drinks, is also the Big Buck Hunter capital of New York — racking up 285 more games in a month than its closest competition.

Nor does it come as a surprise that the bar, on Grattan Street between Morgan and Bogart streets, was an honored stop on Thursday during the video game’s Summer Training Tour, which pits Buck amateurs against the Buck master — Chris Fream, the 2012 world Big Buck Hunter champion.

Yes — that exists.

In honor of the visitation from the champ, the bar had four Buck Hunter consoles on free play, saving quarters better used for laundry (but not tips, we hope).

There was even a mini-tournament, hosted by the “Big Buck Girls” (models in tight T-shirts). That this was part of the event should be obvious to Buck fans, since the game has almost as much cleavage as it does caribou.
