Man Houston would be great for our team, cut about 2/3 of our travel budget. Phoenix is still probably 17 hours drive away versus 10 to Houston. We've been to the Lone Star regional three years now and they always do a good job and the complex out there is huge. There would be no problem holding the championship there. The afterhours activities would be the only concern. I'm sure FIRST is looking to bidding this event out to cities,and maybe disney also. just like the Olympics, who comes back with the lowest/best bid package. Think of it this way - instead of the prestige that Disney brings to FIRST, the prestige of hosting the FIRST National Competition would bring to the host city. Stay tuned
