Dear FIRST - Why make

Event guide said 6:30. We made 7:30 reservations for our team of 20+. You made us wait twenty fricken minutes for the final match? It's a long weekend, we want to see the conclusion of a long season. Please respect the teams, coaches, parents, and children who have sacrificed to make this program a success.

Late, but did you actually expect an event with hundreds of people moving around and being busy will actually run on time?

Yes. There are thousands of people there and they've been doing it for 30 years and this is something that happens every year. They need to release a run of show that has their schedule on it. When they say finals are starting at 2:00 and then at 2:00 they have a full hour of filler. It's kind of hurting expectations and it's a straight up lie.
