An entertainment venue comprising a performance area and a spectator area surrounding the performance area, wherein the spectator area includes a static spectator portion and a dynamic spectator portion, the dynamic spectator portion including a track substrate defining a continuous loop around the performance area, a plurality of spectator pods adapted for movement around the loop relative to the track substrate; and a platform located adjacent to the track substrate, wherein each pod is spaced from and not physically connected to a neighboring pod; and each pod includes at least one proximity sensor connected to a controller, the controller being adapted to maintain a predetermined minimum spacing between adjacent pods when the pods are in motion and/or detect a foreign object located between adjacent pods.

The present invention relates to the field of hanging tubular space frame truss (truss) using truss picks. Truss units include tubular longitudinal truss chords, and tubular webbing elements interconnecting the truss chords. Truss picks attach to truss via the truss chords. Prior art truss picks were rigid and therefore incapable of adjusting attachment locations to account for variations in truss chord spacing. The invention described herein provides an adjustable truss pick having a swiveling saddle and clamp assembly that, as a result, creates adjustable spacing of truss pick attachment locations long desired in this field.

The present disclosure is directed toward a foldable cheer box that may be easily stored or transported while folded in its collapsed configuration and sufficiently rigid to support a cheerleader performing routines when unfolded into its deployed configuration. The cheer box is in the shape of a cuboid having a front, rear, left, right, and top panels. The left and right panels are further divided into two equal subpanels. All of the panels are connected by hinges and drawing the left and right panels together causes the cheer box to fold into its collapsed configuration while separating the left and right panels causes the cheer box to unfold into its deployed configuration. The top panel may be releasably attached to the side panels when the cheer box is in its collapsed configuration for storage and to prevent the cheer box from unfolding into its deployed configuration. The cheer box may be transported by means of hand straps, a shoulder strap, or wheels used in combination with a telescoping handle.

Improved containment mats and systems of containment mats may include multiple adjoining mats with a top surface and a bottom surface. The multiple mats may provide a modular structural mat system that may be installed at a drill site, with multiple mats placed adjacent to each other with a lap joint connecting adjacent mats. A geotextile may be used to cover the lap joints and a coating applied to the geotextile. Such a system may provide containment of potential spills, a reliable working surface for drilling operations, and relatively fast and less expensive installation.
