The venue is near the airport so there should no problems getting a hotel within a few miles. We are 35 miles from Irving - please PM if you need any help or advice from a local.

The field is one of the toughest of the season. 1296 will be there (and OK City) - we've picked 2nd to 4th many years in a row, hopefully we break through to #1 this year. One can dream anyways...

See you there!

FYI - there is a Fry's nearby also!

You've jinxed it now! We only do well when people write us off

It'll be just like Texas Robot Roundup minus the Robonauts 118 and Cryptonite 624

Too bad they aren't coming.

Should be a fun event!

**Team 359 loves FRY'S! and will spend an off-day all day there.

Strange, once you live near one you don't go nearly as often. Now I only go when we run out of purple zipties.

Dallas is going to be great this year, many of the best teams in Texas and some fresh faces from out of state as well.

In my opinion, Dallas should be one of the premier week 3 events to catch on the webcasts along with the Howell FIM District.

Last year the devastators and a few other team booked rooms together. If your intrested we can talk to our coach about that again.

[2789_B_Garcia]

We're looking to redeem ourselves as Dallas was our one rookie event, and needless to say it didn't go well. I like the idea of going in as a "wild card" lol

This should be a great regional. Can't wait, but we're focused on Alamo, first

Oh, and we do houses instead of hotels. Its cheaper, gives us the chance to cook some meals together, is easier for keeping tabs on the kids and bedtime, and it's also easier for having team meetings.

Definitely excited to watch this one! Seems like Dallas, Alamo, and Lone Star are all stacked this year, also seems to work logistically for Texas teams looking to do 2 or 3 regionals.

Makes those pass down invitations handy

I enjoy going in a black horse sounds mysterious. I know as a student im looking forward too seeing all these great teams that I chat with on the chief delphi so often. I can't wait!!!

I'll be there helping out inspecting, first regional for me down south.
