It's a bit more walking than St. Louis (and based on the shape of the convention center, some divisions would walk a bit further), but probably pretty close to what we had in Atlanta.

There's also Reliant Arena just across the parking lot, which couldn't handle FRC but could support some FLL/FTC. However, most people would like to keep all the levels together, so everyone can easily see it all at once.
So the Astrodome that did not work well for 2003 has been shut down now.So those that attended in 2003 what was your opinion of just Reliant Stadium? And since I have never been to the new Reliant Center, which compares to St. Louis America's Center only larger, how would that work?
