Not really. The host determines if there will be and how much that gate charge will be. Some are moving away from a gate charge by going with some pretty high entrance fees.
This past year, one of the East nationals charged a $900 entry fee, but there were no gate charges or food/beverage/cooler restrictions. The key here was the tournament was on open county park land and access could not be legally restricted or for that matter controlled.
Never been to an Eastern, but ASA/USA has always been a hefty gate fee anytime I have been.
