Now that the two venues are over a mile apart, I doubt we'll have much better attendance at Closing or even Opening ceremonies for CMPN (is that what we're calling it now?).



*plus Jr. FLL-FTC teams
Agreed. I'd love to see the Chairman's award winners and what not but the team (myself included) would rather get to the hotel early, eat some dinner, go swimming, etc. than wait through an hour delay until there's some silly presentations than watching the video at 9:30pm than getting back to the hotel at 10:30

On a side note, 1678 (or one of their mentors) seems to be calling it FSRN (FIRST Super Regional North). The FS part of this confuses me because I'm a baseball person and FS# is usually Fox Sports, but I do agree that it isnt a true "CMP".
