2011 Waterloo Regional
 
Who's ready for the 2011 installment of the Waterloo Regional? Over the years this event has seen vices and dumbells strapped to robots, a team almost losing a 1 v 0 match, and of course a 300 L bag of popcorn. I'm sure this year's event will continue the legacy of the zany and unpredictable events of what has become known has the most fun event in all of FIRST. Adding to the excitement will be the return of our old game announcer after a one year abscence! I know I'm pumped.

2011 Waterloo Regional... Get your popcorn ready!

The 3 Grandville Michigan teams cannot wait until Waterloo! We are still at the West Michigan event and we are already talking about the trip cross-border! I can only imagine if the guards ask to check the trailer and they open it to see 3 robots, 9 carts full of tools and the other full of luggage!

I can imagine it now:
Guard- "This is lunacy!"
Team member- "No that was 2009..."

I'm really excited.

2200 will be providing a webcast this year. This is going to be one of the best regionals of the year, as Karthik said, get your popcorn ready!

Waterloo was on our short list of 2nd Regionals, but our school administration wouldn't approve the trip out of country. Wishing everyone luck!

G22 was a 10 point penalty.

Will we possibly see a return of the announcer game?

Waterloo is so much fun to watch it attracts viewers to a 29 team event with prohibitive favorites while other huge regionals are happening

I hope the announcer game returns, it was really good fun. I wish I was there for the ridiculousness that is the combo of Karthik and Paul. Not sure who is running the webcast, (if you guys need help send me an email), but hopefully there is some level of interaction.

I hope I can sneak down there for Saturday, but its a long way from Kingston...

We've always wanted to go to Waterloo. Sounds like it'll be great yet again this year.

Jonathan, Myself, SeanNoseworthy and basicxman (CD Handles) will be running the webcast. if you have any tips for us you can PM me. I'll do my best to see what kind of interaction we can get going.

Interesting tidbit: 3 of 2056's 6 match losses in 2010 (all 3 at the regional level) were to alliances involving 1114, and 2 of the other 3 were on Einstein, to the eventual 2010 Champion Alliance.

1114 had 3 losses in 2010. All at Championship. 1 in Qualifications, a match they played 6v0 against 111,888, and 469, and 2 in the finals on Einstein.
