I think this is particularly interesting... I wonder how the geographical distribution changes from year to year, at least in the US.

Which also brings up an interesting question. Clearly with the majority of teams east of the Mississippi, and the next concentration of significance on the west coast, why are we doing 2 central US championships next year?

(And no, I'm not including the international teams here as one would expect the cost to fly to either cost would be a minor increase, if not a decrease, to the total cost of attending in the first place.)
