Just want to know what you think... Do you want to be famous in FIRST? Why or why not? Do you think there are any prices you have you pay for being famous? Maybe some day you will wish to go to a competition without being recognized and just walk around the pit area quietly looking at robots?
All I know is there's no turning back after you've turned famous, nothing short of quitting this wonderful community can get rid of all the attention ;-).
Maybe fame isn't the best thing you can get from this program ;-).
Your thoughts?

Would you like to be famous? Why not
Price you have to pay for it? Yes, definately, you have to actually do something and make a difference
Fame isnt the best thing you can get from this program? Yes, true.. there's a LOT more you can get from this program
Wheather you like it or not, if you have made a difference in the FIRST community, you will end up being famous, and yes, there is no turning back then.
And being famous doesnt always mean that your privacy has been robbed. If it has, it also means you have people respecting you and helping you wherever you go.
Personally, I have no aims to become famous. I just like this world and want to do the right things.
