Tourists don't need to buy admission into Disney to partake in all the glory that is FIRST. They may have to pay for parking, but that's all I can guess.
PLEASE.....make sure to tell your relatives what division your team is in (when the divisions are released) and your team number.
You would be surprised at the number of tourists who come into the media tent and expect to find their kid's team, when they only know the town they are from, which by the way, doesn't help....I flash back to moments of...
Me: May I help you?
Person: I need to find my nephew's team.
Me: Ok, what team number?
Person: There's team numbers?
Me: Ok, what state?
Person: Michigan.
Me (thinking): Oh, greeeeeat.
Me (out loud): Ok, do you know any sponsors?
Person: My nephew lives in Detroit.
Me (thinking): .....
Me (out loud): Ok.....(fade to noise of me rustling through pages and pages of information...)
(Hope noone takes that offensively, I love my job and its a wonderful challenge...but I also like poking fun at it)
And if they get lost, tell them to look for the Pit Administration table, which is almost always in the center-ish area of the pits. There they have a pit layout by team number.
