I agree. I was there today as a spectator, and finding space to see the field was very difficult to do, especially with the robot traffic. While there probably wasn't much of a way to get stands in there, finding space for that in the future would be a great addition. Thankfully it wasn't jam-packed.

I want to say that it did, but I'm not sure. All of the hangs from today are kind of blurring together. That may have been the one where the robot was either touching the top of the platform, or cleared it by probably a centimeter.

From what I was there for today (about half of the matches), everything looked great. It was a really relaxed and event, with great robots and people (we even had a brief tweetup halfway through the afternoon. It was nice to met Zach and re-meet Andrew after months of talking to them through Twitter and elsewhere). I really wish I could go back up to visit tomorrow!
