Re: Atlanta: The Wrap Up and Grading

Weird. That was the one thing I definitely liked better in Houston than in Atlanta. I loved having the FLL event in the pit area, scholarships table set-up in the area. The matches playing in an area where you could see all field cameras from your pit. A place for team member to sit in the seating when not needed in the pit or stadium or while eating. The ramp to enter was wide enough it made coming in and out easy. The size of it all and able to see the complete pit area from the stand was an amazing site. This is just most of it. A large area to practice autonomous mode when not wanting to use the practice fields. And more space. A lot more space. Also you can't say your pit was on third base at GWCC, but saying your pit was on third base of the Astrodome is something beyond special. If you had a pit like the Astrodome (without the ramp even though I thought they were fun) next to everything else in Atlanta that would be awesome.
