... I didn't even think about that. Sorry.

I just think it would be nice to have an outdoor venue sometime. Call me crazy. I don't have a valid reason for it other than it would be nice to get outdoors at a robotics competition.

Maybe not for an actual event, but at least for a summertime off-season event.

Having an offseason outside in a tent when it's 95 degrees it the definition of amazing. 68 went last year, and hope to go again this year!

Please excuse JWallace; first year on the team and all

This was a really powerful alliance and they deserve a big congratulations even if they didn't compete outdoors. Well built and driven robots are hard to beat.

IGVC is great, but I also agree. With this years game, It would be fun to have an outdoor event. Judging for wind would just add to the game.
