🌟 Entrepreneur Spotlight: Tiffany Radsick with The BIG E-Z Bar + Games

Tiffany Radsick started The BIG E-Z Bar Games with a simple goal: create something of her own that brings people together. As a single mom, she wanted to build a business that made space for community, fun, and connection—without overcomplicating it.

The BIG E-Z is a mobile entertainment service offering oversized bar games for pop-ups, private parties, and community events. Think giant Jenga, Connect Four, and other low-tech, high-engagement games designed to get people talking, laughing, and off their phones.

Early wins include her first game rentals, community partnerships, and even donating a pack-and-play to a follower—an example of how she’s using the business to stay connected and give back.

With the first official BIG E-Z pop-up in the works and plans for a permanent space down the line, Tiffany’s building more than a business. She’s creating space for people to connect through a shared experience.
