Pits were great, venue was the pits...

Hey folks,

While the complex that Disney constructs to host the Nationals is awesome and the pits in particular were truly fantastic, the venues were aweful.

To show you how bad it was, I LOVE this sport, yet I could barely bring myself to stand in that merciless sunshine on the chairs squinting my eyes in order to watch the final matches.

It was HOT!

It was hard to see!

It was hard on the knees!

It was not a spectator friendly sport at all.

The smallest regional had more people watching the finals than watched the National Finals!

It was the worst venue of any of the FIRST events I have ever attended.

In fact, as crazy as I am about this FIRST stuff, I am seriously recommending that our team skip the Nationals next year in favor of another regional if the venue is not significantly improved.

What do other team think?

Joe J.
