So again, is this a "oh man, you just can't miss this" kind of an event?

I haven't been to the science center yet, but last year the team attended the finale at The City Museum and it was astounding! If I had to pass on the finale i'd go back in a heartbeat, and I think it's cheaper per person but it wouldn't include dinner.

Wait? What are you paying for? I mean it can’t be the science center.

I am from a local team, so I guess since we didn’t stay in a hotel we missed this information. The science center along with many other Saint Louis altercations is Free to enter or a very reasonable price.(Science center, the zoo, and the forest park art museum are free, along with other things) So are you paying for the food, and/or other things invovled with FIRST?
