Championship General Question?

[Emily3204]

My team is going to ATL for the 1st time this year, and we heard from another team that described the competition as "10,000 kids jamming the Georgia Dome for 3 days…more nerds per square foot than a Star Trek convention…and more purposefully employed "

Is this true?, Because I don't think there could possibly be a more wonderful place on earth

[Chris is me]

Yes.

Well, I've seen much less social functionality and much more "nerdiness" at cons like Genericon... but you're about dead on there.

Its an amazing three days and there are a lot of great things that happen outside the competition itself such as people constantly playing ultimate frisbee.

I had the chance to go last year, our rookie year, and it's possibly the most epic thing I've ever been a part of. I met some awesome people, a few of whom I still keep in touch with. I can hardly describe it, it's just that amazing

Also, a reason why I wish I could go this year:

I've been to Atlanta twice. Let me tell you, it isn't just a nerd convention. The energy flowing in the Georgia Dome is incredible. There are a lot of things to do in Atl besides the Dome. All kinds of restaurants, the ballpark, aquarium etc. I was a /Parent/Mentor and loved every minute of it.
