FIRST = Something bigger than robot destruction
There is nothing wrong with Battle Bots.... Everyone thinks its just "out to destroy robots" ya that might be the game. Yet there is so much more behind it....the designing process, the building, the team work, the communication, the pits! Its a lot more then just what you see in 30 mins on TV. A lot of the people that participate in the Battles Bots are some of the nicest people I have ever met. In the PITS its the same atmosphere as in FIRST. You go to a person and ask them for help and they are willing to aid you in any way that they can! You can judge something just by what you see!
