2. What were the first 3 regional competions, and where were they located?

3. During what year did the human player have to be seatbelted to the player station?

Good Luck!

NJ in 1997 was a dead perfect tie from what I understand. There were several ties in 2002, including at least one that went down to a coin flip. However, since a coin flip was the last tiebreaker, it can't be said that it was a dead perfect tie.

New England was the first Regional with Motorola Midwest and Johnson & Johnson Mid Atlantic (NJ) coming in 1997.

1996 had the seatbelted HPs.
