Re: This Is Appalling Behavior At A FIRST Event
While I agree that this is not the kind of behavior we should tolerate, there are some things that could help reduce some of the crowd problems. I will say that at some point on Saturday morning there was a woman trying to get on the elevator when the door opened there was a surge of people trying to get on before her. I was actually able to block part of them from behind me but was surprised how many people got on the elevator ahead of her.
Foot traffic at St Louis could have been directed much better. There was only one entrance to the pit, once you got past all the people standing in front of the entrance (great place to just stand) and actually got into the pit area, you were met with people trying to go out the same way everyone was coming in. Then you had to cross the line of foot/robot traffic that was coming and going from the fields not just FRC but FTC as well. I wont even go into the people that feel they need to stop for what seems like no reason when waking in a crowd. Kind of like getting to the top of an escalator and stopping to look around to find where you want to go next.
Now back to the original subject...
I think if I was in a wheelchair and someone tried to jump over me to get somewhere faster or ahead of me, they might find them selves looking up at me from the floor.
