Re: Overview: Nationals

Good Things
-shorter walk to playing fields
-didnt have to push robots up 5 flights of ramps
-shorter walk to stands from pits
-FIRST apparel shop
-Large screens in pits with Field action and Rankings for each division
-Better packing/loading situation on saturday
-Wide selection of restraunt choices in Atlanta
-Social!!

Bad Things
-screens in the middle of pits, we had alot of people standing in front of our pit which made leaving and coming back with the robot a little difficult
-Having to lift the robot off the cart and move it through a door barely big enough for the bot to fit through when there was a huge bay door 20 ft away, and only about 3 of the small doors were open at any given time.
-Food prices
-Lack of organization during Thursday unloading, the police in Atlanta werent very helpful in helping us find a spot to park and unload and threatened alot of others with tickets when they were trying to find a spot to park
