Not sure if this has been covered but...

When considering Disney consider that there's one key criteria that it doesn't meet. When last we saw Disney as home to Nationals* there was only FRC to contend with and the limits of what Disney could put together in terms of a temporary compound were already over extended. Now consider that we have, FRC, FTC, FLL to contend with. As far as I know, they didn't a few years ago, Disney lacks pretty severely in terms of an adequate arena. Their rain plan for Einstein back in those days was "here's a cute Mickey Poncho, enjoy the competition." Also as someone who was overrun by the extreme heat and humidity one of the years I was down there the climate controlled Georgia Dome certainly has its merits.

Of course Disney holds a special place in the heart of old school FIRSTers and it is Disney there's lots to do, lots of hotel space.

Try This!! For those of you students who weren't around for Disney walk up to someone who was there back in 96, 97, 98, 99, 2000, 2001, especially student alumni. Simply throw this at them and see what happens "Please stand clear of the doors..."
