Also the biggest crowd pleaser in recent game history was the bridges from 2012.
Heavy game object which can be un-scored + requirement to balance with game objects + robot v robot interactions would be awesome.

This years' game involved picking up and dropping off ~60 lbs. The problem with heavy objects is that the game looks less like a sport and more like a bunch of construction equipment.
