Re: GOING TO THE ATL! Wait..... what's it like?
From my previous two years experience there, if there are any announcements made in the pit area (I didn't hear a single one), you will not hear them. You must keep track of what match is currently on your field (by means of video screen or otherwise), and leave the pit area several matches in advance, to make sure you are queued up in time. Do not rely on anyone to come and get you, I've seen teams miss a match without ever knowing it. You're paying a lot for this; don't miss a match. The field is not just on the other side of a curtain, as in a regional. It's a good little walk away. I'll reiterate what was said about having a good cart.
