I hate to disagree about Houston, but do you really want to lug your robot up all those ramps, through a crowd, and across the Reliant floor? It was hard enough for me to get myself in--and I was a volunteer and found a way in that few used in the morning! 15 minute walk without a robot? Ugh. They need a robot only route that climbs fewer ramps if they return to Houston.
Atlanta? See you there.
New Orleans? Never been there, so I don't know.
