Team 3000!
 
Congratulations to BAE Systems & Jeffersontown High School on becoming the FIRST team 3000. :)

The highest number I have seen so far is team 3051.

I was looking through the NASA grant list and completely forget numbers were rising so high! It is always great to see that this great program is growing. Good luck to team 3000, and beyond!

Yeah, and it was only two years ago when we got past 2000. Just imagine: about 1700 teams with about 30 students per team. Thats pretty big. :yikes:

...Wow, this program is getting big! If only there were as many resources for team longevity as there are for starting new teams...

No kidding especially with the economy the way it is, we lost all but one of our sponsors. And we are going to have just enough money it looks like to pay for our entry fee, but no second regional for us this year...

Team 1000 was a rookie in 2003.

Team 2000 was a rookie in 2007.

Part of the reason for getting to team 3000 so quickly is that FIRST issued only odd numbers between 2700 and 2826. About 75 potential numbers were skipped.

Also there is a gap between the highest number in 2007 and the lowest number in 2008, and again in 2008 to 2009. About 50 numbers were not used.

Why only odd numbers?

I wonder if a certain internet meme will still be relevant once we hit 9000.... :D
