Re: Free Ride
I agree with most of the posts here that teams should pay for the championship if invited, because there really isn't any other practical place for the event funding to come from.
What really needs to happen is in increase in robotics enthusiasm in every community, state, and country, as per Dean's homework this year, so that robotics can grow and become more and more respectable as an extracurricular activity. I would love to see the day when FIRST is as popular, or moreso than football or other school sports. When this happens, the school will be much more likely to help out with funding for regionals and championship.
