This was my introduction to FIRST Robotics! I had done FLL before, but this was my first year doing FRC, and man was this quite the year to enter in on! Catchy theme song (it grew on me, only took a year or two, lol) and a very unique game idea! Many good memories coming back with this one...

[@benlyman7880]

I love how they actually got Professor Elemental for this! So fricken cool!

[@PatrickLohKamp]

I love the Professor, He's a riot in person and on stage. Can't wait to see my team taking this thing with both hands.

Well.... The water game evades us for yet another year... Soon. Still, This game looks amazing! Good luck to all the teams. (Team 2471)

[@dylandailey3191]

An all-terrain game would be amazing; particularly water and air.

[@TickTheNomad]

yes a all terrain game would be good but not water!! (team member from team 4409)

[@TickTheNomad]

k

[@rat_man]

water game would be... difficult.

[@ImDelphox]

If you think about it, the robots in this game are like airport ground support equipment (meaning the little vehicles that transport luggage and stuff to and from planes, among other tasks).

[@akashshanmugam7162]

Yes but to power steam engines

[@ac3_train3r_blak34]

[@MarkTomczak]

History has suggested that if you give teams a slightly-too-hard to accomplish challenge, they suprise you. Year after year after year after year. :-D

[@TickTheNomad]
