 At first, "water game" was funny. Then it went to silly. Now it's just dumb. Not to mention unrealistic for FIRST. - EricH [more] |

Re: 2009 Championships
Canada? I mean it would be great to see the Championships to an international event change which country its in every now and then. Then after its been to Canada, we could have it in Brazil or Isreal.
btw I don't actually see this ever happening(unless the structure of FIRST events or demographics of its teams changes dramatically). Last edited by d.courtney : 01-04-2008 at 17:50.

Re: 2009 Championships
The RCA Dome in Indianapolis would be a great facility. They have the capacity to have everything under one roof with the stadium and convention center. And it's not like Indianapolis is freezing cold in April. The average high temperature for the third weekend in April is 65, compared to 74 for Atlanta. (Data from NOAA.) The real question is finding a venue that works for FIRST and that wants FIRST. There really aren't going to be that many places with a setup conducive to hosting the championships. You pretty much have to look for large domed stadiums that have considerable attached space. I love Atlanta as a venue, and I don't mind going, but moving the championships around some would not be bad.

Add a couple of new hotels being built and a downtown entertainment area that you don't have to be afraid of your students walking in and you have a winner. The only thing that ATL has that Indy doesn't is a great mass transit system. That could be a problem.

Re: 2009 Championships
I think next year will be the last year in Atlanta. I also wouldn't be surprised if it moved back to Orlando.
