Re: Championships location from 07 and onwards

Everyone keeps mentioning that the teams in the west have such a longer distance to travel than teams in other parts of the US. They all say that somewhere in the middle of the U.S. would be the best so that is is equally available to all the teams. But distance isn't the issue. Somewhere like Atlanta is a perfect place for the competition because Atlanta has such a major airport. Airfare is determined by the number of times a flight goes to a specific city. If the competition was held in the middle of the U.S. airfare would actually be higher for teams everywhere. So if the westerners really want everyone to pay less, somewhere like Las Vegas would be the perfect venue. There are so many flights in and out of the airport there that flights would be cheap and obviously the city can hold the number of people who would be attending.
