Attempting the Bonus Round

I think a lifetime of learning properly and then teaching others and inspiring the youth is more important to myself at least than being on the news for a couple seconds during a voice over. - Elgin Clock [more]

One thing I'm wondering is how secure the tower is? If you hang 3 robots off one side of the tower (approx. 450 lbs) will the tower hold up or tip over? I'm pretty sure they never lag anything to the floor at first events right?

Anyone get up close and personal with an official field and get to feel the rigidity of the tower?
