Y'all had better not have too much fun while I'm going north with my team this year. ;)

Wait, you mean Billfred is going to miss his first Florida Robotics Official/Offseason regionals/events since 2005?

My record isn't that spotless. Since I graduated high school:

Robot Rodeo 2004
Florida Regional 2005
Mayhem at the Museum 2005 (I was in Maine)
Florida Regional 2006
Mission Mayhem 2006
Robot Rodeo 2006 (I was at Cal Games)
Florida Regional 2007
Mission Mayhem 2007
Tempest 'N Tampa 2007 (I was/am saving my dough for BE)

Not bad, but certainly not perfect either. ;)

Team 233 cannot wait for the Florida Regional, but they have to because they have to build a robot or something first. . .
By the way, I have seen the venue and it is pretty sweet - lots more seating and excellent spots for scouts to scout (duh) the field, just to name a few advantages over the previous arena. There is also plenty of room for double fields whenever they decide to do that (probably not this year) - all they need to do is wrangle up a bunch of college students to come and help us out during their spring break - how hard could that be?

LoL they used to do it the week before our spring break, this is the first year since I've been here that its on our spring break. This really stinks, because in our intro engineering classes we used to get extra credit for volunteering and were allowed to miss class. Now we have to miss spring break, and the 12 hour Sea bring race :-(

I'm sad that I will not be over there volunteering.
The Florida Regional is one of the best parties in FIRST. Good competition, good teams competing together and working together. I met so many incredible mentors, students, parents, volunteers last year - and the campus is beautiful. Florida is just plain fun. Take lots of pictures and videos!

Man, I just went to the new arena for a basketball game, Knights beat UTEP 107-88 or something like that.. but thats besides the point. Its my first time inside the arena, and it was flippin sweet.

Not only is the outside extremely beautiful with all the shops and landscaping style of the building and lights and high rise dorms, the inside is amazing to boot. ~10000 seats of pure awesome, sweet sky boxes, comfortable seats ( Not bleachers! I think unless they put it in the student section... )

So yeah, its going to be fun fo sho.. fo sho
