Last year's field was pretty decend, as it was big enough and well designed for a challenging and exciting game. But it was really hard to move around, not to mention the amount of material to build a similar structure of the ramp + goal. We were trying to move the field to demonstrate the game, and end up bringing one goal and half of the ramp because of transportation problem.
I will have to say the puck and floppies from 1999 was much more effective in showing/telling about the FIRST competition, and still provide a really fun game to play/watch. You have got to love how a small moving platform created the whole exciting atmosphere!
