It was awful but so incredibly inspiring. Much like many of these nightmare experiences turn out to be. Because of the spirit of FIRST.
Edit: And actually, the events of this Mission Mayhem, and the way in which the teams and volunteers worked together to make the competition happen, were so inspiring that I decided that I had to travel to Florida and attend Mission Mayhem and support it in some small way. And I did. And it was so much fun! I learned a lot from this off-season on the two occasions that I made the trip.
