Totally in agreement there in respect to the idea. The event is free and open to anyone to attend.

Sadly, for most teams getting to the venue is expensive, especially those coming from outside the US, or even the East/West Coasts. I don't doubt that some teams currently do attend champs even though they don't qualify, but I highly doubt that those paying to travel to the "weak" champs event will then turn around and travel back out to the "strong" champs event.

It's a great idea, and in theory it works well, but in reality there is a cost to going to championships, even if you aren't competing.*
