2015 Lake Superior Regional
 
63 teams are registered for the Lake superior regional. Figured I would start a thread for this since its only 4 days away. Can't wait to see all the teams up at the DECC!

This should be a fun event. It will be interesting having a week 1 event here in MN. There will be lots of people viewing these events to see how this game plays out.

I will be rooting for 1816, 2052, and 2538, 2823 since they could bring some wildcard spots to 10K Lakes. Likewise, I'll be rooting for 525, 2500, 2502, 2509, 2518, 2705, 2846, and 3026 on the other side of the arena. I'm expecting a lot of wildcards to be available at 10K because of the new wildcard rules this year.

Running a week 1 event is certainly going to be an interesting experience!check, just getting all the volunteers through training and testing in time has been tough.

I know the volunteers are all ready for it. After a history of having a field show up at midnight in the cities and building half the support structures for one of the Duluth fields from 2x4's when we were missing parts, I'm pretty sure our volunteers are some of the most experienced at improvising a way for teams to have a good time and a successful event! Plus, we'll have 5 LRI's on site. If we can't get your robot working for its first match, no one can!

Very excited to watch the webcast on-line this weekend. Good luck to all.

Ahh, that was fun building the wooden field.

Weather looks to cooperate this year. It's going to be cold, but not unseasonably so. There's no snow in the forecast and we don't have 38 feet of snow on the ground like we did last year. I anticipate build and load in going smoothly.

And we're jinxed. I'll make sure you're the first person Laurie visits when things go wrong tomorrow!

2883 packed and on our way, 4 hour road trip.
Go F.R.E.D

2823 packed and on our way, 3 hour road trip. We'll be careful to take your pit spot, since no one will be able to tell us apart. ;-)

I'm just glad 2502 won't be at this regional; we always have both 2052 and 2502 at 10K and my aging brain can't cope.

I couldn't tell you when but I think I remember one Wisconsin or Midwest regional that had all 3 of 2220, 2022, and 2202.

Imagine 2883, 3883, and 2823 at one regional as well. What a mouthful.

Good luck to all the teams in Duluth! My boys have their favorites:
