Also, many events do no have a city name associated.
So, if I want to find the event in Cleveland, searching for 'Cleveland' or 'Ohio' gets no results. I have to know it is 'Buckeye.' And now there is 'Miami Valley' to deal with.
A newcomer would have a real pain trying to figure out which events in their state or nearby states they can attend.
The old site had them all in one long list and including the state. Piece of cake.
Also, the phone friendly version doesn't get enough info on each page.
If someone is making a list of gripes...
End rant.
Alternatively, you can use The Blue Alliance for that here:

Just choose "Events"
