hehehe I got hugged by some guys in green body paint... it was awesome up until about the third one where one of my pins popped open and stabbed me...

Re: coolest uniform
 

Forgive me for forgetting team numbers but my top 4 of all time in no particular order are:

Two Train Robotics - They had full train conductor jump suits that must have been really hot to wear.

GUNN Robotics - I love those retro bowling type shirts and the retro robotics design with the retro font.. I want one of those so badly... (Did someone say retro?)

Team #360 - They were sporting the blue shirts and pants with the home depot style orange smocks in Archemedes division this year in Atlanta.
They had a wicked cool crate as well.

Woburn Canada Robotics with their Hockey type mesh red and white jerseys.


Honorable mention goes to the local favorites who keep us on our toes each year with the bright colors (Buzz, TJ^2, MOE, etc.)

Also, what team had the "Bad Robot" shirts this year in Atlanta?? I think it was a black T-Shirt with the words "Bad Robot" and a picture of a robot attacking someone. I liked that one too. I want one of those too...

Re: coolest uniform
 

You're forgiven! Heh, that totally made my day. We love those shirts too! Unfortunately, the bowling shirts were retired this season (due to lack of time for making them)... so to replace them we designed a black t-shirt that has the same back, but it's just not the same. However, we (or at least some of us, like me because I don't have my own) plan on trying to bring them back next year, because then that'd be happy.

After going to nats and seeing MOE in person (and not going blind!), I must say, their shirts are really cool. Oooooh, shiny...

Re: coolest uniform
 

Ya MOE shirts were really cool. They were so bright :D

Re: coolest uniform
 

hey Viv
yeah, we, MOE, are bright, but we do have a sign that is a disclaimer to not stare into our shirts or it may cause blindness. well that was confusing.
VIV, I NEED A GRT SHIRT. IF I CAN LIKE ORDER IT OR TRADE IT WITH SOMEONE, I DON'T CARE. NEED GRT-NESS. I'VE GOT A MOE SHIRT I CAN TRADE, AND MANY OTHER GREEN THINGS. LOTS AND LOTS OF GREEN STUFF. :D

now to actually talking about the thread, i like of course, MOE :p or any other bright team shirts. And as you can prbably tell, i like GRT, cuz they're all hypery. dancy, dancy.

Re: coolest uniform
 

I see you met Umit. Yeah, I got slimed too. Nice green bear hug

Re: coolest uniform
 

but was it BRIGHT, FLOURESCENT green?
if it was, then it was cool, otherwise it's sub-par, slacking guys.

Re: coolest uniform
 

finally.... someone mentioned think pink!!

but did everyone forget about crunch (79) with their coconut bras and hula skirts?!?!?

(but i still love our superman costume the best!!)

Re: coolest uniform
 

sum team needs to have spiderman shirts or w/e cuz SPIDERMAN IS AWSOME :D

Re: coolest uniform
 

I agree with Henry 222, I loved Team 25's shirts...they always have cool stuff to surprise you with every year. Heck I even got one! :D
I admit MOE is excellent with their uniforms. in FIRST, you do have to be noticeable and fun with your look. Obviously, it's a big hit. Go MOE! :D

Re: coolest uniform
 

I also thought that Oaktown crewzs' uniforms were awsome. I hated our uniforms. We looked like we were from McDonald's. Seriously, our shirts were red with yellow writing. It was really easy to spot other team members. :D

Re: coolest uniform
 

What makes the coolest uniform to me is something that's creative and that not other team has. Of course, with so many teams ... it is kind of difficult to really find a one-of-a kind uniform that no other teams have. Some people resort to the usual t-shirt and jeans. Which definetly gets boring ... so I like to see color, creativity, and uniqueness!!! :cool: I also like to see teams who pick a color such as obnoxious green or really bright pink and incorporated it into everything from the robot, to their attire, even to the gizmos that they hand out at competitions. For example, at the Peachtree regional team 1371 had their robot painted pink, they had pink jumpsuits, pink beads and plack hats with pink inscripting, i mean it really was a site!! :]
Some other teams opt to use themes, and they incorporate this into everything as well. Of course not everyone is going to like the splash of diverisity ... but then again isn't that also part of FIRST? We need to have gracious professionalism and appreciate everyones creativity.

With that said, to me the coolest uniforms belong to the teams that have the must guts to wear something that most people would not even dream about. Good JOB at givings us at nightmares!!! :yikes:

Re: coolest uniform
 

MOE has the coolest uniform, no doubt about it!!!!! The pin i received from them ("MOE HUGS!") at the new jersey regional is probably my favorite and is definitely the first thing i see when i open my closet...

i dunno, i guess the lime green transmits a wild kind of energy that's contagious, really... :D :D :D LoL!!! Go MOE!!!!

Re: coolest uniform
 

Well, I hate to do this, but I don't think it was 861 that did that. They might have had the poodle skirts, but the skirts you are referring to are from 60. I know this, because Blaire wore MY poodle skirt, and the guy that they "fashion violated" was my friend Alex. We spent the whole night Friday shaving his legs and plucking his eyebrows and all morning Saturday making him look girlish. The sad thing was that his parents never knew he wore the girl's uniform (the poodle skirt) instead of the boy's bowling shirt.

and I'd have to say that 190's CRUD shirts were pretty awesome. I was comissioned to wear one in Az. Don't know why exactly, but I did it.

Ja!
