Understood that what you've linked to is a distinct memory, but quite a negative one to have as your "best" memory without much of a sentence to support it. I for one am glad there were no fatalities during the incident you have reminded us all of.

On a more cheerful note - I will miss all the Chief Delphi Web Hugs that were had at this venue! Safe to say that the ATL year Web Hugs were the first time I met many people I've grown quite close to (and am still close to today!). Just did a quick image tag search and found all of the old photos uploaded from the years 2005-2009 and they brought back quite the memories! First time I truly felt that the FIRST community was a big welcoming family. Hoping this is a tradition to bring back in the venues to come.

Also - wondering if anyone remembers the name of the place I'm talking about downtown, but I also had my first bison burger in Atlanta and it's left quite the memory as well!

Yeah I guess by the time I finished reading all of the posts prior, I thought about distinct memories rather than necessarily good ones.

I'll never forget being so excited when, in 2010, 254 drove into the tunnel in auton in attempt to block 469's robot from getting into scoring position on Einstein. Too bad it didn't work. The volunteers were nice enough to allow some of us who had gotten eliminated earlier spectate from the floor on Einstein, and let us move closer to the field every time a match started. Best seats in the house!

It helps to leave the position controller on after you get where you are going.

probably Ted's Montana Grill - it is a chain so there might be one near you.

A venture partly owned by Ted Turner of CNN fame. He owns over a billion acres and ranches bison.

OMG yes, that place was so good! Mary Mac's was very good too.
