Last years walk for FTC wasn't nearly that long. The only part we walked was starting at 20 seconds in your video. Because of the tornado last year the pits were a lot closer than previous years. I hope this year the FRC pits and the FTC pits are in the same hall again. It makes the pits a lot more interesting.

For anyone who doesn't know. A tornado hit Atlanta a few weeks before the championship. It was pretty much cleaned up by te time we got there. Alot of windows were blown out all around the city. Here is a picture of the Dome as we drove up. All the plywood should have been windows.

Also, for anyone who has never been to the Dome. Here is a short video about it. There's a lot about the Dome I didn't know.
