I think it would be great to eventually have an event in Madison. Right now, though, it doesn't look like there are enough teams in the area to justify it. That seems crazy considering that 850,000 people live in the Madison metro and it's home to the best engineering program in the state. An event there would only realistically be day-trippable for 3 or 4 teams, though. We don't have enough teams overall to justify a 4th event, and I don't think Madison makes more sense than either La Crosse or Appleton.
If the Madison CSA had the same team density as the Milwaukee CSA, they would have 10 teams. If they had the same team density as the La Crosse metro, they would have 38!
