Re: Clowns or Announcers?
I can sincerely relate to the thoughts of the OP. I admit I can get annoyed easily. Particularly by mascots, loud music(and loud cheering), the exaggerated costumes and the standing in the crowds. Yes, I've heard plenty about "hating fun"...but I just don't get any fun at all out of these things. I just don't. This really bothered me when I started FIRST(particularly while I was a student) but its just a part of the deal. They supply a great experience with the thrill of design and competition. The catch is sometimes you have to put up with some annoyances. Sometimes I don't like it, but I hold nothing against others that choose to have fun in different ways. In fact, if it helps them enjoy it and doesn't annoy me too much...I would encourage it.
