Team 376 practices recruiting--grab the freshmen and don't let 'em go. The big ball is just a little bit easier than the typical freshman in terms of catchability, though.

Weeks of hard work later and who does the robot hug? The ball.

How many licks does it take to finish a FIRST-sized gobstopper? Well, we might get a water game before that bot gets there...

"What do you mean you forgot to make a release mechanism for the ball!?!?!?!?!?!"
What our friend does not realize is that there is a human catching mechanism on the rear end.

In an amazing display of precognition, Team 376 brings its own green light to the field to help keep rounds running on time. Too bad it didn't work.

When I said "shoot for the moon" this is not what I had in mind! "A" for effort though.

That robot is Deceptively small.

Designing a robot to fetch your exercise ball defeats the main purpose of having an exercise ball in the first place.... EXERCISE!!!

The catapult failed to work as planned. Someone forgot to add a bottom to the scoop.

This picture exhibits about as many interesting features as the 2001 game did. Which is to say, not a heck of a lot.

The robot here is shown holding the giant water balloon. Seconds later, the balloon burst and a "water game" was truly born. Most of the bystanders were not amused.

Robot: I've got this.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #376
 

How to distract the safety judges from the robot in the aisle? Give the robot someth-

"Ooooo, shiny..."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #376
 

Feeling intimidated, 376's robot grabbed a giant ball to make himself look taller. His efforts got him picked.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #376
 

Once there lived a robot so small,
He could not pick up anything at all,
But then his light turned green,
And he tried to be keen,
And grabbed a ball just as this picture was taken.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Some poems rhyme,
But this one doesn't. </npoe>
