I believe it for about ten seconds, myself. The amount of attention and space being devoted to FTC does make it plausible that they couldn't satisfy their need to give it prominence and still have all five FRC fields on the dome floor. I think the main problem with what they want to do is that FTC just doesn't work as a stadium sport. The fields and 'bots are too small.
It looks to me like everything would fit if they put FTC and Einstein at opposite ends of the dome...but that would mean inconveniencing one program by having it at the "back" side of the show, and it would place the FRC division fields perhaps too close together to keep the sound from one from interfering with another if it was too loud.

Hardly.
I knew I didn't care for their music before I went, but I still expected to be entertained. The word that describes what I got instead is "assaulted". I mean, you'd think that people designing the lights for a stage show would know to point them at the
performers! I probably saw less than half the show because of the spotlights blinding me, and the strobes kept me from seeing a lot of the other half. The music was too loud by far; the bass literally had my clothes shaking in the breeze, and it was impossible to make out most of the words because they were drowned out by the rumble. I could
hear the words if I covered my ears, but I still couldn't understand most of them.
And what was with that electric ninja DJ at the end?
