And this is a little earlier than I usually book. To be fair, I am picky.

But I would encourage you to go ahead and find something. If FRC 16 doesn't get selected, I will auction off my 7 nice rooms.

I actually started looking in the week between MAR Champs and world's and I couldn't find any either. I didn't want to take a bus but we might have to because I will need a charter bus the entire weekend to get back and forth to the venue. There is nothing within reasonable cab distance available. Assuming we are lucky enough to be selected. My students already sleep in our pit normally so I will just bring a few more "boulder" pillows.
