Right--I know that's the case. I was referring to someone suggesting that the entire event, pits and all could be held in the LOS with nothing in the convention center.

That looks like a beautiful building. But, (serious question) what would be the need for a change in venue if this was even considered? I loved Atlanta and the GA World Congress Center.

Cost, and location would be the two primary factors. FIRST is going to want to find the cheapest venue possible, and the venue that the most teams can get to the easiest.

It's time for a change. Sure, me being from Indiana, I want it to be in IN for a few years, but I think it would be best if it moved around every 3-4 years to give more areas opportunity to hold it.

That is a good plan once all major cities have their own dedicated FIRST Robotics arenas! :cool:

I agree. And much closer than Atlanta...at least for us!

I wouldn't bet on it moving any time soon. The venue looks nice, but for the foreseeable future, I don't think it'll happen.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 11:00.
