I do hope they don't move robots/pits around. Houston has a reputation of rain and flooding happening in minutes and to transport to those other venues, I don't see much covering available. The convention center is very large and has 3 different floors. If they only have 4 divisions, I can see it all fitting nicely in the convention center. Maybe two divisions on the first and second floor with Einstein being on the 3rd floor. FLL and FTC could be on the third floor all together.

It could all work out but I think they would want use the Toyota Center or Minute Maid Park for opening and closing ceremonies. It would give them the seating that everyone is used to from past Championships.
