Re: 2013 Hub City Regional

Head mentor of Team 1817 (Lubbock FRC Team) reporting in.
I can answer a few questions:

The venue is the City Bank Coliseum, it is located on the Texas Tech campus.
It's a decent size, should be sufficient for a new regional.

Lubbock is a college city. Texas Tech has a huge beautiful campus (one, if not the biggest college campus excluding Air Force and their runways.) There are a few museums and cool things to see on campus. The Lubbock area doesn't have anything to really brag about other than Tech however.

For food, I for one recommend One Guy From Italy Pizza, best in LBK in my opinion. There are a few chains like Texas Roadhouse and that are always good. There is a phenomenal steak house named Cagel's located near the limits of town, (conveniently located close to our workshop), it's pricey but worth it.

Not sure on a webcast yet, but I don't see why not.

Team 1817 is very excited to compete on our home field, and bring FRC to West Texas.
