Denver is actually about in the middle. Funny, I always thought it was further west, but it isn't. It's 18 hours from San-Fran to Denver, and 18 hours from Denver to Detroit. That's a drive, but it's possible to pull off. Plane tickets to Vega are cheap... there is always that option  |
St. Louis, however, is quite close to the
mean center of the US Population. Though, I don't think FIRST teams are really representative of the US population. Someone should redo this calculation with the locations of FIRST teams.
