Providence actually would be a great place to hold a regional. Almost all of providence is made up of hotels, inn's and restaurants because of Johnson and Wales University. The Convention Center is actually very big. several floors of just open Space. Though I don't think it could hold a regional of 100 teams. It could very well hold a regional of 50ish teams.
Also RI has the Dunkin donuts Center. Though I have never been in it I know it is rather Large. They are constantly holding Monster truck shows there so it must be very large. Also it is a dome with stadium seating. So it would be like a mini-Atlanta.
