I'd prefer Orlando where we used to have it. It was warm, nice and kid oriented.
FIRST needs to grow a pair and play hardball with the hurting Disney right now and get some good rates for their rooms. Bookings are down year over year, who wouldn't want about ten THOUSAND people guaranteed in rooms for about a week that will buy park admission, eat, and buy stuff?

I say Indy though becase they are courting FIRST, and knowing FIRST's somewhat passive nature, they will go with them. I was in Indy this past summer for GAC and had lots of fun. There is a great shopping area, a GameWorks, several large hotels, lots of cheap/well priced food, and for those my age, bars.

I have a good feeling FIRST will not be going back to Atlanta mainly due to the crime in the area. My sister saw a guy get shot in Centenial Park.
