I totally agree. The connection to real sports in the past was amazing.

The first thing that came to mind when I saw this was LARPing. (Madison mentioned it as well). I can't see kids from sportsball getting excited about something that looks like a LARPing advertisement (albeit now with more robots). As someone who participated in High school sports I can say if this was what was supposed to get me interested in Robots I would probably have just stuck with cheerleading.

Hopefully this turns out well. Disney is a wonderful company who hopefully has helped create a great experience for the students. I'd love to see more kids want to be involved in FIRST.
