Imagine how long it will take to go up and down all the rows and clean up all the hundreds of paper airplanes. I think its very likely they now have a different feeling of FIRST other than being inspired about science and technology.  |

If people took more time to pick up after themselves and took efforts to not make a mess, then the people who are paid to clean up could go home sooner. Yes it's their job to clean up but we shouldn't make it harder and more tedious for them by making a mess just because its fun and other people will clean it up.

This was my first thought! Also, I'm fairly certain that whatever the arena staff did sweep up, they put it into the trash. Think of how much recyclable material that is!
