To me it does not matter where they have it, but it should be advertised more. I was in a hotel that was mere block from the dome and nobody knew that there was a robotics competition there. If we really want to spread the word we need to pack the spectators in. I know in our town nonprofit organizations get free radio time, I am sure that there is something similar in other cities. At least throw up some posters or banners around town, and announce that it is free to get in, and let people know that they are allowed in the pits. I mean there are how many people that live in Atlanta, and how many that are in the downtown area I think some people would have stooped by if only for an hour if they knew what was going on.
