Do people really care about entry fee prices as long as they're under $30
or so?  I know for me entry fees are a pretty small part of event costs.
Sure, I'd like to pay less like anyone else, but I'd much rather pay $30
vs. $15 and have a well run event with equipment that doesn't break on a
lot that lets a course designer do something interesting.
