FIRST still has location listed as "USA" on the 2003 Competition Page, plus if it was in Canada, our school board would not let us go, and most likely other school boards won't let their teams go



<edit>
My choice still stands: The Astrodome in Houston, Texas from the 24th to the 26th of April

You never know....it may be at Universal Studios. US FIRST is crazy enough to do it, they've done crazier stuff before. I'm talking from experience. "As long as there's water on earth..." is obtuse and you don't know the fact for sure about the location.

Well, considering it is a different country, it would be much more difficult for most of the people involved. As I would guess you need Passports or something similar, plus, just getting the school board to let you out of state for overnight is hard enough.

However, I could be wrong, I know that some of the teams from the US do go to the Canadian regionals, so how about a primary source?

Ahhh...that makes sense.
I still like to think that if nationals were in Canada, we'd be going with the school board's blessing.

If that was the reason FIRST chose where it is going to hold the nationals, then it would be a toss up between a New York location and one in Silicon Valley (erm.. California somewhere). We'll find out in about 17 hours or so..

Would anyone care to explain why they'd be setting up tents in November for an event that's taking place in April?

Thanks.
