excitement at post season comps
IRI 2001 was the only post season comp I've attended so my sample size is limited. Based solely on that competition, post season comps are as fun as regionals. There is less stress (at least for me because we didn't scout at all) and the competition is still good. IRI last year was as good as or better than almost any regional. All the teams that showed up were there to win, and the elims were a blast.
I think the post season comps are also more laid back. Most teams don't bring as many students and the students like to wander off talk to their friends instead of cheering during the matches.
