You know it's bad when Georgia Tech, notorious for having class despite weather, cancels classes for 3 days due to the snowstorm that passed through the Atlanta area. Although our team wasn't able to meet for those 4 days, we pulled extra hours and an additional day on the weekend to try and make up for the lost hours, but other teams in our area can't do that, and the 45 pounds is a life saver for those teams.

+1.

Not meeting in a school we did only miss three days but that's also three days of no deliveries and slower shipping to here from the north/northeast at many times during the season hasn't been fun

Another great thing about this allowence is if you have been wanting to make a practice bot it's that much cheaper, now you have that much more stuff you don't have to buy seconds of.
