Re: Where was the GP at Championships?

The lack of GP can be blatent or subtle.

Many people were wearing team Media badges with no intent on taking photos or writing articles about their teams... but were OK when I asked them to leave the field unless they were truly media people (I think that's horrible that someone would try and use that badge just to have access to the field so they can coach their teams or scout).

During Saturday afternoon we were sitting in the reserved section for VIPs awaiting the start of finals on Einstein when several teams started to fill in the seats. Show Ready personnel asked them to leave and most did. A venue staffer was brought in to monitor the area and one team in particular was rude. We were shocked.

We witnessed several other instances of rude behavior at the many other regional events we attended this year. It's a shame that the isolated incidents overshadow all the great behavior shown by the majority of people there.
