Default whats the draw?

First, I am not dissing rock crawling. I was just wondering what the draw is to this? It seems to be gaining more and more popularity, and I can't for the life of me understand why. I've never driven one, but it looks to be fairly boring. But given the popularity, I know that I am missing something, so what is it? Is it a particular challenge to be able to hit the gates right? Or is it more that it's challenging just to take the lines without flipping? The setup and building of a crawler? I've been involved with rc for a long time, numerous airplanes, sailboats, powerboats, swamp buggy's, nitro and electric off road trucks. But I can't see the draw to crawling. Once again, I'm not dissing crawling, I'm just wondering what it is about it that draws people to it.
