DirtyBird213 is on a distinguished road
Our team (213) stayed at the Houston Hilton Plaza. It was a beautiful hotel, (our kids all had suites with 2 bathrooms, living rooms and bedroom w/ 2 beds). However the food there was HORRIBLE!! Day 1 consisted of runny scrambled eggs, bacon and home fries. Day 2 was pancakes and sausage (over cooked!) and day 3 was cereal and and apple or banana. Don't even get me started on the prepaid food. My one question is this: Would Woody and Dean eat the same food we were subjected to in Houston? Answer NO, they had VIP catered meals (of which we all paid for) I think next year, Dean and Woody should be required to eat the same food we have to eat, then maybe we'll get something decent to eat!
My only hope is that they have learned what was wrong this year and can fix it for next year. If you take out the food situation, and the distance from the pits to the playing field, then it was really not a bad place to hold the competition.
