Plus, we had our human player up there, so was R.Lopez from the boards, so that was funny to watch. The food was decent, not the best, but the fireworks were awesome. Also, the provided ice water and excess cups made great weapons against team mates, coaches, and mentors. Also, the centennial fountains were loads of fun, especially when you throw your friends and teachers in. Now, if torturing friends, teachers, and mentors wasn’t fun, nor the fireworks, nor the hypnotist, you can be seriously bored. So, for the party, I give a ‘nearly good as Disney’ 9 out of 10.
..umm what DID i really do while being hypnotized? .. :x mwahaha.. im still afraid of the chairs... they might bite me ;[ hmnn my opinion on atlanta, it was nice.. i like the city so i enjoyed it.. and of course our team drenched each mentor and team coach with ICE COLD water in the after party.. then with a little shaving cream fun later on taht night (*shuts up*) the centennial water fountain was great.. i loved it.. heh.. in my opinion transportation (the bus) was okay.. there what "quiet time" but i dont think it happened much ;D .. walking, it was a pain in the beginning but then i began to think "hey i have a media pass i can get in and out of the pits easier ;D" the food was awesome because u had a great variety of food to choose and u always had a few bucks extra to get more if u wanted anymore.. i was left with about 15 dollars of that paper money stuff afterwards.. the hotel was awesome.. we didnt sleep much tho ;D but it was worth it.. about watching tv, i dont think our team was interested much in watching it except when movies were coming on..the pool WAS pretty small, but it wasnt much in our interest in going in it because we were always finding other things to do.. one thing in the hotel/cnn center that i loved was the 8 story escalator.. it was one of the biggest in the us.. .. so overall, i liked it.. even though ive been to only 2 championships.. i still enjoyed it a lot
