Re: A Question for FIRST teams particularly in the New York State Area!
Well, speaking from (very) recent experience, the shlep from NYC to Syracuse isn't much of a problem if you have an overnight stay. I would love to have an offseason tourney at the Fair, since it will promote FIRST in Syracuse and help out 891's recruitment base.

The overwhelming issue would be the transportation for downstate teams and accomidations. The hotels during the Fair were in the $200/night range in Syracuse. I do know that 4H can hold us in their barracks, but that is not a very attractive option at all.

Side note: How did the event turn out? I worked it Friday with 1155, 2265, 891 and 694.
