Another reason I've heard floating around is that teams are not looking to do back-to-back districts if it can be avoided. So lots of teams are hoping for a week2 & week4 season. Since the northern part of the state is more heavily populated with teams than the southern part, it makes sense that they'll go for the Tippy event. And, as Alan said, the other two are pretty much interchangeable.
Also since Purdue has been so good to us over the years, and Tippy is sort of the BMR replacement, with the possibility of campus tours and the sights and sounds (and smells) of West Lafayette being so appealing.
