The mascot of FIRST
 

~

SO MANY CHOICES!!!

Well, not really...

Bill Nye: Mental Defective and addicted to Concord Grape Jelly

Tom Morrow 2.0: A great singing star of the late 1960's, it would be a shame to see him sell out as manslave to Dean Kamen...

RoboCop: You can't be both Cop and Robot, that's what I've always said

Donatello: Obviously mugged Raphael for the position in the poll...I mean, come on...

Seeing the other choices, the only REAL answer is everyone's favorite form of foreign flight, Sequé. All the technology and family friendliness with none of the addiction to jam or trilogy of bad movies...

I'm looking in your direction, RoboCop

In my humble opinion, this is clearly a toss-up between Segué for his charm and accent, and Donatello, for his knowledge of machines. Others beg to differ.

I disagree with that. I think that RoboCop would be great because he shows a great example of how the robots that we are building today may turn into something more advanced that could be used to save a man by turning him into a robot. I think that was what that movie was about. It has been a long time since I saw it. That is just my opinion though.

SO YOU'RE THE ONE who voted for Robocop! :D Just kidding.

NO! Big Mike is our mascot!

What about the robot that went to Mars. I mean, if it got to go to Mars, it must be important?

If the nearest moderator would like to add "Big Mike" and "that robot on Mars," go ahead

The point of RoboCop was to show us that really big intimidating looking robots can't go down stairs, and also, that you must wait until your boss is fired to shoot and kill him.

I think that robot on Mars lacks personality, and that's why it's losing.

hey what about a transformer like Optimus Prime??

Is "Big Mike" that robot mascot that was hanging out in the pits at nationals. If not, then I would like to know who is "Big Mike" and that robot from Mars because I have no idea.

WHAT?
No Astro Boy?

This poll is bogus!!!:mad:

ok.. maybe it's 'cuz I'm biased (seeing how he is on my team and all...but I would so love to see "Big Mike" as the mascot of FIRST...he sure has it.

Big Mike I support ya! ;o)

hey i just thought of another mascot..what about MR. ROBOTO!!?!?! either Mr.Roboto or OPTIMUS PRIME

I so voted Bill Nye the Science Guy. I mean, come on. The guy was wonderful, you can't deny.

But hey, Optimus Prime would be awesome too.

Hey, I think FIRST sshould make a mascot suit like the FIRST logo and have someone in the suit and run around...kinda like the Best Buy box guy, but hopefully less anoying ;)

Now that would be funny. My sister and I went to a Best Buy opnening with the box there. She HATED the box. So we turn an isle and see sees this 6 foot box (see was 8 then) and SCREAMS and runs in the opposite direction as fast as she could. That was funny! :D

I'd have to go with Segué the talking Segway because well segways are just cool....

i say it should be Bill Nye the Science guy!!!
omg, that would be the best, we'd have a theme song and everything. And we could probably get a few bucks for having him as our mascot.
Sparky- do u remember us at nats on Greased Lightening, the loud girls singing the bill nye the science guy song :D
"bill, bill, bill...bill nye the science guy" :D heehee
good times, good times...lol, and not to worry sheri did not fall out of the coaster..LOLOL, later,
Hermione

The Dancing Deans and Woodies
 

How bout more than one mascot

A bunch of choreographed dancers dressed as Woodie and Dean.

The Woodies would have Woodie's differnt outfits (Tux with tennis shoes and pinclad vest) and dance around the playing field doing the infamous point at the team and rub the robots. The diffenent ones could be also waving around differnt team's flags.

The dancing Deans could have choreographed numbers using his different inventions. They could have him on an iBot balancing the 2001 ramp, going up and down the 2000 ramp and grabbing the bar and doing chinups, or going up and down stairs. They could have also him on segway cris crossing the area going in and out of the new playing field gates. All of the Deans would be wearing the trademake denim.

All of this would be choreographed to Sandstorm by Darude (the offical theme song of FIRST).

This sequence could be started by the Real Woodie pointing to his eyes making sure all the dancers had their safety glasses on and saying his trademark 1-2-3- GO!!! followed by the offical FIRST trumpet blast.

Throught the whole jig you would here the offical FIRST false start Fog Horn blast and the new offcial FIRST "differnet parts of the round" bell chimes. You could even have the team number LCD's above the playing stations flash "DEAN" and "WOODIE" and the time LCD's flash "FIRST."

All of this culminated by the official FIRST buzzer.

We already have the dancing judges and refs. I think the next step would be the danicing Deans and Woodies.
