Yeah but as far as I can tell the Bayou Regional website hasn't been updated since last year. I also checked the events calendar at both the Convention Center and UNO Lakefront websites but their calendars don't go out far enough to next March.

I still dunno where the Bayou Regional is this year????

So with the event less than a week away, who's pumped for Bayou? 2815 will be making its FRC debut there, after a red-eye bus ride from Columbia. (It's only 678 miles...) Just look for the garnet.

Only 678? Billfred, you are one crazy chicken.

[ChuckDickerson]

456 is more than pumped! We are counting the hours till we head down on Wednesday and they just aren't going by fast enough!

Where is everyone staying? There aren't many hotel choices near the Lakefront Arena. 456 will be at the Marriott Residence Inn in Metairie.

See eveyone there!

I am pumped! I was just looking at the team list and making a few notes. Not a lot of data on the rooks, but team 2992 looks interesting.

What other rookies should I look out for?

I'm still surprised that we don't see more teams making the trek down from up north. This regional is a blast every year.

Yeah this is one of the smallest regionals. I guess with the new Dallas regional, everyone wants to go there instead. Oh well.

And now I realize how old this thread is.

Oh well, maybe the OP is still reading this and doesn't know where it is.

[Kris Verdeyen]

Anyone know whether this event will be webcasted? Robotics.nasa.gov has "TBA" for week 4.

[ChuckDickerson]

Yes, it is supposed to be. Go to BayouRegional.org and find the link. I'm on the road to New Orleans and don't have the link handy.

[Josh Drake]

I have to give a shout out to the rookies from SC (2815). They came to a pre-season scrimmage. Not a typical rookie.

Thanks. For those who are too busy to run over to... uh.... another website:
