Domino Day April 20, 2013

Fun is falling into place at Domino Days, the Maryland Science Center’s annual tilting and toppling extravaganza, taking place Saturday, April 20 from 12:30pm-2:30pm.

Visitors will watch world-renowned domino topple expert Scott Suko, along with a team of local engineering volunteers, create a massive domino tumble throughout the Maryland Science Center’s Legg Mason Gallery – 11,000 dominoes in all.

Guests will see the set-up and stack dominoes at “do it yourself” tables around the Maryland Science Center, testing designs of their own and getting advice from experts – including Scott.
The topple starts at 2:00pm, with multi-colored dominoes of various sizes zig-zagging, spiraling, climbing stairs, crossing tables and collapsing into pyramids.

Scott Suko was a member of the team that created the Around the World Domino Topple for the 1986 Coca-Cola Centennial Celebration which was noted in the Guinness Book of World Records. Scott retired from domino toppling in 2005, but is making a comeback for this event.

Domino Day is made possible by Northrop Grumman and RFID Global Solution.

All Domino Day activities are free with paid admission to the Maryland Science Center. The Maryland Science Center is located at 601 Light Street at Baltimore’s Inner Harbor. For information and ticket prices, visit www.marylandsciencecenter.org or call the 24-Hour Information Line at 410-685-5225.
