2013 Buckeye Regional

[mathking]

I went to CWRU for grad school in the early 90s, and my wife went to Cleveland State. We both have family in the area, so we get there a lot. And This will be the 7th trip 1014 has made to the Buckeye Regional. I have attended 4 others. The area around CSU is a lot nicer now than it was 10-15 years ago. Probably safer too.

I heartily agree with Travis' recommendation to park in one of the CSU lots. There is actually a CSU parking garage across the street. We are staying in the Hilton Garden Hotel again, which is a couple of blocks away. We take a school bus up from Dublin, which drops us off and comes back on Saturday. So we walk everywhere. We have not had any problems with crime in the area outside the venue. (I actually had my car broken into once on my trip to the regional, but it was broken into out in the suburb of Walton Hills. Just goes to show you that you need to be careful everywhere I guess.) It is a city however, so you have to take reasonable precautions. We make sure the kids know that they don't go anyplace outside the venue alone.
