I’m just curious if most teams are planning on attending the party being held on Saturday evening/night. If you don’t know what I’m talking about here is the link.
In case people don’t know, you have to buy tickets and the tickets are $25 until Monday (16th). After that they will be $40.
I want to buy tickets for my team before they get more expensive, but I want to verify that indeed many teams have plans of going. (wouldn’t be much fun if 20 teams show up)
Our team is going, but I don’t think that a lack of teams going will reduce the amount of fun you have. In fact it might increase it. Imagine, an entire amusement park with practically no lines. That night is reserved exclusively for VEX and it also includes dinner.
I know many of the new vex members don’t remember when worlds used to have after parties.
Elevation and Cleansweep worlds had them and it was a lot of fun. I doubt a lack of teams will be a problem.
Yes, three Vexmen teams attending worlds will be going to the party at the amusement park.
The kids are really looking forward to it. Parents - not as much thinking they will be dead tired by Saturday. They need to get a better mindset and enjoy the experience. This is the fun part of worlds and I am glad to see they added it back.
One of our team members on 81M was at the last Vex party at the 2010 World Championships in Dallas. He was in 6th grade at the time, is now in 11th, and is our longest tenured Vexmen member. He loved it then and is really looking forward to it this year and got the rest of the kids psyched!
Going to vex worlds without competing can be the most fun experience of your life.
Not sure how different it would be now after they added “Tabor rule”.
