Wow. you people sure do take your decective work seriously. Still, even if that is the day, I think it's important to remember that it hasn't been officially announced by FIRST, and more importantly, that anyone jumping the gun and booking flights and hotels now is going to miss out on whatever packages FIRST is diligently working on for the teams. Indeed, booking things now will probably undermine FIRST's efforts.
I agree. If you book the hotels and/or flights right now, you are very likely going to drive up the price of the FIRST package. And besides, what if the rumor is wrong and it ended up being another weekend? Then you will have to go through the trouble to cancel your reservation.

Also, we don't exactly know where in houston the event is going to be held. The FIRST package is likely going to provide the best hotels closest to the event... They might even set up transportation just like the buses in Disney World so that its easy for team to travel from hotel to the event to whatever recreational park there is near the event. You don't want to accidentally book a hotel far enough that you have to rent cars to get to the event, do you?

Just wait... I am sure it will be announced very very soon. And if not... I wouldn't risk listening to rumors and book hotels right now...
