What is the most amazing venue that you've competed.
I'm in the process of writing up the 6 October Delaware State VEX Championship that we held at the Dover Air Force Base, Dover Delaware.
We were inside one of the three hangars on base that can hold an entire C-5 airplane. It was a perfect blue (Air Force blue?) sky day, so the hangar doors were open and we could see a row of C-5s parked across from us. We had the DAFB Bomb squad robot, remote controlled front loader, a mini fighter jet, one of the snow blowers they use to clean the runways and the EMT rescue van.
We had a portable clam shell stage and bleachers, with 6 VEX fields and the 40 pits around the outside walls.
It is one of the most impressive venues that I've been to a robotic event. As far as I know this is the only robotic event to be held on a military base. (And I don't want to appear to be splitting hairs with the Chesapeake Regional when it was held at the Naval Academy. That has my vote for second best venue).
Other than Worlds, what is your choice for most amazing venue that you've competed?
I'll post the event writeup and pictures in another thread...
