Will there be a Louisiana States this year?

[waynegg]

Well, will there? LOL!

[EeveeLover]

I'm sure there will be. You just have to be patient and wait for the details.

[AoTF]

March 20th I believe at Rockets Hideout.

[Squirtle]

There had better be. Gotta come defend my title for the 4th time!

[Cyrus]

There had better be. Depending on schedules, I may go to this over Texas or Oklahoma - I want a shot at Steve's title!

(The smaller title, that is )

Yeah it would be nice to spank Steven again, lol. One of two of my greatest victories in Pokemon.

1. Against Steven last year.
2. Against Cyrus years ago.

I cherish those wins, lol. I can say I beat two of the finest players in the USA.

[AoTF]

You never know this is a new time and a New Age. Maybe someone else unexpected will win the title as state champ.

[Rocketman]

Yep,there has been a Louisiana states every year since state championships have been held! And I have held them all.
March 20th is the date at this time, and Rocket's Hideout will be the place. You players coming from TX will have an hour less drive.

[ryanvergel]

Zach won LA like 3 years ago I think. I won the day before in MS.

[Rocketman]

Oh, it looks like March 13th.

[Squirtle]

Ugh, I may still come but IDK. Really wanted a shot at FL states this year. I guess we'll see

[Team Cook]

Rick will have to make a decision lol, does he want Florida players or Texas players to come in and empty the cookie jar?

Top 8 the last time I was in Louisiana and my game has elevated, I'm feelin' kinda spunky.

[Nekizalb]

The Defending Senior LA State Champion will be there to defend his title whether the Championship will be the 13th or the 20th.

waynegg- you kinda spelled "Louisiana" wrong. It's only got 1 n, not 2. Just sayin'.

[AoTF]

Last I heard it was changed to the 13th.. Crap 6 days before I hit 30 Instead of the day after lol.

[Mach]

I hope there's a LA States. I was planning to go to it.

[Rocketman]

I hope all the Texas players come that will. I really don't care who wins, so long as everyone has fun.
Besides, it's not like Louisiana players haven't had great success in Texas! We all have! And right nowthe reigning world champ is the Louisiana champ. if he comes again ( and I hope he does) I have some fun ideas, like a world champ challenge game called Win Steven's packs.
But the fact is, no texas master has ever won anything in Louisiana.
No Texas PTO has ever finished 2nd like I did in Texas States! And we did take your regionals.
So if you guys can handle it, come on over. It will be an hour closer from either Dallas or Houston!

Well said, the facts have been noted. Man, I bust your chops for a little giggles and you come on and lay down the word.

Well,on the flipside, I know Austin has done well here in the kids div. And it wouldn't suprise me to see him do well in masters , He's a very good player.
Like I said, I'm more interested in having a fun event than who wins. I have no doubt the best player will win regardless of where they are from!

Austin has quit playing although he's showing some interest in attending States but you never know with him, lol.

Is the 13th set in stone? We do have a few Houston players that are interested in attending your event.

[Rocketman]

So far yes. Birch has posted that TX will be the 20th, so I'll do LA the 13th.
Who knows, I may want to play in Texas this year. It's my event!

...Didn't Diana Chambers deny Brent a Worlds '04 invite wayyyy back in 2004? That's one instance of Texas winning in Louisiana!

(And what an unusual instance it was! I wonder what happened to the Chambers family???)

John,you are right! But it was Chris Schell she beat. ( Brent however was denied worlds that year)
So Diana is the only Texas player to win in LA? Pick up the pace, boy and girls......

[Drugall]

Yep, the tourney will indeed be on the 13th of March. I was talking with... well, I think he's a coordinator, or something, this past Saturday.

Super psyched! My wife and I will be competing. I seriously doubt we'll win, but it'd be cool to place, or at least get a door prize. ^^

[jkwarrior]

Are we be allowed to use 66 card decks if we come?

[Nekizalb]

I will be there! Hopefully it'll be as good as last year!

I don't think so; it is a State Championship. You would have better luck asking if we can use 66-card decks at Worlds.
