The passage from the pits to the floor of the Georgia Dome is indoors through a series of roped off walkways and loading docks so you don't have to worry about inclement weather. Just hope that it's nice for Saturday night, because the party's held in Centennial Park - where you and 20,000 of your closest friends will have a blast together!

You forgot da Vinci (Edison and Frankin divisions) for FTC, and Einstein field...

If you aren't on the drive crew/team media, you can't go the indoor route to the floor. That's robots only. There are ways to get to the Dome's seating area without exposing yourself too much to the weather, but they involve lots of escalators and going well out of your way, or lots of running from shelter to shelter. The team party may be moved if the weather's too bad, but don't worry about that yet. If it is moved, they'll tell you.
