The Kansas City thing is interesting, but there really isn't a facility just yet in the area — at least until either Wyandotte County or Olathe builds an arena. And Salina for 4A would be great — just like Hays for 3-2-1A.

Funny thing about the Manhattan idea is that a year or so ago, a bunch of us were kicking this one around: Move the tournament to Manhattan — put the 6As and 5As in Bramlege and the 4As and 3-2-1As in Ahern.

I know, there's probably very little chance that will happen; the 3-2-1A Western bloc will NEVER allow a move from Hays, but the Manhattan thing is interesting...

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
