I'm not too sure about this... FIRST is very fortunate to have large corporate sponsors and government money, but I'm (fairly) sure that FIRST doesn't MAKE any money off of champs with the current entrance fee. I'm (fairly) sure that if FIRST could, they would lower the entrance price.
I guess what I'm saying is that I don't think that it's FIRST's fault that the entrance fee is what it is. In fact, I think it's kind of a bargain considering what is involved in making champs happen.
Just my opinion.
