I would say under 10. You forget, there are around 90 teams in the Twin Cities, only 2.5 hours away. I bet a bunch of them would be willing to take that as a second play, especially considering that the other nearby regionals (Duluth, Wisconsin, Midwest, etc) have all been full for ages, and Iowa, despite being a rookie regional, was almost at capacity last year. This area has needed more events to accommodate growth, the event won't be nearly as empty as you think.
