As someone who has carried a robot up that incline multiple times (Youth Engineering Science Expo), my vote is against Ford Field. I've been in the under tunnels and locker rooms (for marching band state championship) and there is no place for the pits down there. The Detroit bid is definitely Cobo and the Joe. Also if Detroit (magically) wins, don't tell anyone about the free parking at Greek Town, I don't want it to fill up!
