D'oh!

The FIRST question is how quickly they can be assimilated.

There are currently 6 Hawaiian teams.
Geogia had 1 last year, and got a regional this year.

Reno? Why not Vegas? There is plenty of show space, lots of cheap hotel rooms, and ample public transportation.

A European regional would be great! It's the only way to get a critical mass of European teams. As long as they have to cross the Atlantic to compete, there won't be many, but as soon as we get a regional on the other side of the pond, there will be teams jumping at the chance. I'm sure a few North American teams could be persuaded to go over the first year to jumpstart the competition, too...

CNY regional

What about Syracuse, NY?

It would be cool to have one here, we've got the Carrier Dome and lots of hotels, two teams locally plus Rochester's only an hour away, Clarkson's team is only 2.5 hrs away, albany's 2-3 hrs away - we're in the center of most things, albeit there is a six flags near Rochester....

They already refer to it as the "Championship Event." Dave Lavery was bugging about that the other day... If they start a European regional and want to make the final event more special, they can stick a "World" in front of "Championship."
