Re: Question: What was the first FIRST competition you attended?
My first event was the 2008 Philly Regional. A few memories.
Being put on the lead of the scouting team, being a freshman rookie in the team, and knowing nothing about scouting. If your team is not in the position to pick, it's really good training, and it's how I learned the basics of scouting. Philly that year was quite interesting to scout also.
The final matches that year were the most epic I've ever witnessed. You had 103/272 which were highly ranked as a first alliance, and you had 365/314 as the underdogs. And the underdogs found a way to win. I still get goosebumps when I watch those matches on TBA.
Oh, and my team got into the Inquirer (largest Philly newspaper at the time), and were featured on channel 6, one of the largest TV news stations here. And my brother got his pic in the paper. I still have the article somewhere...
My ramblings...
