TEAMS: If you see this at your event. You can request them to fix it. The field is not in spec.
This x100. I know how much work goes into setting up the field, but that field is far out of spec for all of those reasons.

Additionally, the red/blue tape in the center is supposed to be 100% on the center vortex base plate.
