Buckeye 2008!!!
So just wanted to start up a thread about who is going, what to think about the teams, maybe post some pictures, and more! I for one am very excited and am always excited for Buckeye. It was the first FIRST competition that SparX ever went to and my first FIRST competition!

Re: Buckeye 2008!!!
Team 612 is going for the very first time. Does anyone remember the pit dimensions at buckeye?
|
Re: Buckeye 2008!!!
Uhm... arent they always 10'x10'x10'? As i remember, buckeye is a little on the generous side usually, but I wouldn't bank on it.
1024 actually tried to back out of Cleveland after our plans got changed in Chicago, but turns out we can't. Sooo... Cleveland here we come! Looks like a lot of teams are going I haven't met before... should a good time. Does anyone know where the team social is going to be held? (hoping for science museum) See you all there, q |
Re: Buckeye 2008!!!
I can't wait for Buckeye! Last year was my first year going to this regional with Team 1126 SparX. I had such a great time and by far was one of the best regionals that I have seen. SparX 1126 like Dylan said will be there again this year! I can't wait!

Re: Buckeye 2008!!!
Team 1714 will be there for the third time. We're looking forward to it.

Re: Buckeye 2008!!!
I agree with the previous posters; the rock and roll hall of fame (doesn't deserve capitalization) would be a poor choice, as, especially for Ohio teams, it gets really old really fast. However, the Great Lakes Science Center (does deserve capitalization) is a wonderful choice, as it can never get old, and we all should be science oriented people.
Team 2603 is attending Buckeye, and we're rather excited for it. It's going to be fun, and I get to see my Fluffy again. |

48 will be at Buckeye looking forward to seeing familiar faces 379, 1126, 191 from last year, as well as all the other strong teams that will be in attendance. And 1024, while it's unfortunate you couldn't unregister for Buckeye, the rest of us will still be happy to see you compete there. |
Re: Buckeye 2008!!!
I hope to go this year, see what happens...
On that note, is there someone that wouldnt mind letting me stay with them? Well after looking at the teams attending, looks like there is quite a few great teams heading down to Buckeye, sure looks like it'll be a good show |

Re: Buckeye 2008!!!
Only these teams will have played in a regional previous to buckeye this year.
48 120 (Pending Pittsburgh) 184 (Pending Detroit) 191 250 379 (Pending Pittsburgh) 612 639 1024 1048 1126 1250 (Pending Detroit) 1502 1506 (Pending Detroit) 1629 (Pending Chesapeake) 1714 (Pending Wisconsin) 1990 (Pending Pittsburgh) 2048 (Pending Detroit) 2228 2252 (Pending Pittsburgh) There will be plenty of experienced teams of this years game coming to this regional. This is one thing teams should take note of who will be in attendance. |
Re: Buckeye 2008!!!
I am excited to attend Buckeye! This is my first time returning to the regional since 2004 with Greater Rochester Robotics (#340). It should be a great regional! :yikes:
