I agree 5000% the bigger events are more fun. Paul Kloberg actually told me this after Final Bin Bash. He said that FIRST was a girls' sport because it was about socializing. It's about getting out there and meeting people and learning things, and yes, you can learn and do great things at mini-regionals, but so much less overall.
