Just have to add a little point here..
FIRST isnt that big. The city of Houston is the 4th largest city in the United States, and will be hosting the 2004 Super Bowl for about 60,000 fans. Im sure many larger cities wouldn't have any problem hosting about 10,000-15,000 FIRST participants, especially Houston and Atlanta. Also Atlanta hosted the 1996 Summer Olympics, where they host hundreds of thousand fans and participants.
In other words, right now size is not a problem.
