Good thing I got my hands on some of those that didn’t have holes in them. And oh about the whole costly thing.... One, FIRST gets an amazing deal on all of these, or they are donates. Second, Even if they don't they only cost like two bucks a piece, and there is like 100 per regional, there is like 30 regional’s, so 100x30x2 = $6000 which is nothing considering the fact that there is 50 teams per regional, that pay 5k each, and there is 30 regional’s, which is 50x5000x30 = $7,500,000 so pretty much that is like chump change. Anyway good thing that I got my hands on a couple of those that were left over from GLR! They were handing out the ones that were in "Used" shape. Which mine was brand new. But yah.... I agree it is sad to see them all there. And even worse to think about that at the end of nationals they just get thrown away.... Does anyone else think that it is rediculus that the judges just knife them out of grabbers that dont let them go..... WOW when I saw that I just thought what a waste! No big deal... I guess they have to do what they have to do. This is a great picture though!
