Bumper Inforcement at Regionals?

This weekend I noticed a lot of teams that didn't have regulation bumpers. Some teams didn't have the required 6" minimum hard bumper segments, other's didn't have any kind of structure to support behind them, and some just didn't look right.

Did anyone else notice this? I'm not complaining as our bumpers meet all regulations and standards but I'd just like to know if the inspectors are well versed in bumper rules. Also at the same time I'd hate to see a team get to their next Regional or the Championship and have their bumpers rules as illegal when they were legal elsewhere.
