Re: 2015 SBPLI Long Island Regional
 
One other interesting thing that occurred during the Long Island Regional was having Conner O'Malley of the Late Night with Seth Meyers show taping a segment related to Robots taking over the world or something to that effect.

He came out on the field prior to the start of a match. Unannounced and dressed up as a bright silver "robot" he addressed the crowd with a rant about robots taking over the world, human sublimation and other things along that line. Part of his intention was to get the crowd to 'boo' him. At one point he was asking the crowd to "Boo me!".

What I found interesting was that while everyone in the stands looked somewhat puzzled and curious, no one actually booed.

Both he and his director were surprised and we later explained to them that this was not that type of crowd. They ended up later on in the day taping a couple of the teams grouped in the stands doing various "crowd reaction" segments.

They also went around to a couple of teams and interviewed the teams robots. Yes that's correct, not the team members, the robots.....

I believe it's supposed to air sometime in the next week or so a segment of the show. It should be interesting to see what they do with it.

Is that what that was? I saw him filming by one of the restrooms and was a bit confused

He interviewed me and my robot and let me tell you it was interesting after his several pre civil war racist jokes (they were awful) he went to calling me a little Jewish boy slave robot owner. It really caught me off guard. Not to mention the fact that me being a video person was wondering how they got their follow focus to get so smooth. I don't know if I'll make the cut being I probably looked so confused and red after his little joke but whatever I managed to get an optimum news crew to come and 3137 got news 12 so I'll stick to being on more pg things.
