Re: [BB] What Do You Want at St. Louis Championships

The venue in St. Louis is large enough for the pits and fields and spectators for all 4 events at the Championship. However, I'm 99% certain that it would be difficult to get a second field per division in there.

I've been there, and I'd say that it would be possible to get those extra fields if and only if FTC and FLL and JFLL were held in the America's Ballroom (upstairs from the convention halls) and the theater in the complex and the other side rooms, or in a lobby area on the second floor. That would clear a space where Franklin and Edison typically go, and open up Einstein for use in matches. Some clever floor arrangement could get the rest of the space. I don't think it's worth the effort, though, particularly since now you're taking FTC and FLL robots up stairs.
