Is the 75% playing for nothing district an anomaly, as I think I remember that Bedford may have not been on the original district list when registration opened last year?
Or do you typically see this in the last event before MSC?

I believe there were a couple that made it through that would not otherwise. Last year, there were just barely enough teams to call for the extra district. This resulted in a lot of 3rd event teams. The 75% is an anomaly as previous years there were not a lot of lottery slots, and they were more evenly distributed. By the very nature of it though, this is most likely to occur at a late season event. Bedford was also a late add, so most teams had already signed up for and planned on attending two earlier events.
