Feel free to attend with your team next year, we will choose to spend our money more wisely.
Maybe we will, we haven't been down to Louisiana yet - and heck, we'd even volunteer our team to help with organizing and planning.

I know what we won't do - get on Chief Delphi and complain about it in the way you have. Constructive criticism is one thing, but that's not what's happening here.

Again, you're the most veteran team from Mississippi. Have some class and handle this appropriately or simply don't attend next year.

There's a right way and a wrong way to handle things. Tactfully stating what went wrong and right at the event would be a way to start. Simply posting how horrible things went isn't really a great way to make things better.

I also applaud them for 'trying their best' to host an off-season event in Louisiana. Nearly every state should have an off-season event, maybe 3337 is just trying to supply that to their local teams?
