Re: Nationals, this year and beyond

Then again, it would also be nice to see something that started its first year in a high school gym grow so large as to need a giant football stadium to house it.
take this into account as well:
this year we have teams from the UK, and now another from Germany. If this keeps up FIRST may grow into an INTERNATIONAL competition with teams from all over the world. So in maybe 10 years, a thread like this may be focused not on Nats, but on the location of the International championship.

Imagine the accomplishment from starting with about 14 teams in a highschool gym, to teams from all over the world with many more regionals, nats, and and international championship (not that the 800+ teams and 23 regionals isnt an accomplishment)
