If you ask people now what FIRST Robotics is, you'll be able to get a response from much more people than you would have 2 years ago. Newspaper, magazine, and tv coverage have been increasing each year for FIRST and now with Battlebots not on air anymore, FIRST will begin to impact much more into society. If you look at it along the lines of 'which competition has changed peoples lives the most' FIRST beats out Battlebots by a long shot. I think thats what leaving an impact is, not just getting someone excited about making a robot to destroy other robots.
