They were sorted by name last time I picked them up, not team number. Though I expect that to be different this year.

Thats how it was in 2012. Thanks!

You're not the only curmudgeon here. If it is indeed stadium food for the 4th day in a row I am not going to enjoy the looks on my kids' faces... /ducks

Want better music that's still appropriate? Get Imagine Dragons next year.

Boys like Girls huh? Still cleaner then half of whats trending on the radio now anyway. Personally instead of sheltering kids from what they will eventually be exposed to I would rather have kids be exposed to something in a controlled environment where I am more able in influence reactions. But that is a complete other conversation.

Hah. Yeah. The more I work with teenagers the older I feel :rolleyes:

I wondered if I was missing something with the Mandy Moore reference.

Will i am volunteered himself and his group to give us a concert for free.

He attends FIRST kickoff.

He has been to every Championship since 2011.

He brings his mother to the Championship.

NASA selected him to write a song about science to be broadcast from Mars.

He personally funded a 1 hour FIRST documentary during network television prime time

We don't have a huge list of celebrities willing to spend these kinds of resources to help us. Thank you again Will, please keep it up

I miss Orlando as well. And those bottles of FIRST water from Mt. Shasta. Granted, I think more was thrown on my fellow students then consumed in 02.

Yes I'd be all for this! Boys Like Girls is too much of a throwback to my middle school years...not sure how much I like the concert finale in general though. I liked the variety of activities at the finales last year and the year before, plus you could actively mingle with other teams :)

No, you won't be hearing, not after the concert that is.
