I can't speak for CalGames, though. Perhaps the event is Just That Good as well, but a much better kept secret?

I for one would like to see CalGames become a prestigious event. It’s one of the oldest, best run, and largest offseasons on the west coast. I would say the matches are usually quite competitive; we have a lot of talent in the Bay Area.
We have enough talent on the west coast that this could easily become an IRI in its own right, provided more teams chose to travel and we found a bigger venue.
And I'm really excited #2122 is coming! Great team, and a great robot!
