Denver is actually about in the middle. Funny, I always thought it was further west, but it isn't. It's 18 hours from San-Fran to Denver, and 18 hours from Denver to Detroit. That's a drive, but it's possible to pull off. Plane tickets to Vega are cheap... there is always that option
St. Louis, however, is quite close to the mean center of the US Population. Though, I don't think FIRST teams are really representative of the US population. Someone should redo this calculation with the locations of FIRST teams.

Interesting how close both Denver and St. Louis are to Lebanon, Kansas.
