Something to do with a robot catching fire during Lunacy.
I was there for the match that this happened. Unfortunately, the robot burst into flames while in the middle of a match. Because of the extinguisher used, the team had to be moved outside to completely scrub their robot down. If I remember right, they weren't allowed to compete the rest of the competition.. Kind of a terrible way to end a competition (or a season).
