The Robot was bagged, but then they asked for permission to un-bag it to do a "presentation" when in reality it was to keep working on it. This happened after build season was done and during competition season. The Robot was never finished on time.
Interestingly enough, I believe FIRST has given exemptions for the case of presentation. There was a Q&A question about it, and it's handled on a case-by-case basis through emailing FIRST. Also I vaguely recall a story here about a team allowed to unbag at the request of a FIRST higherup(Woodie? Jon Dudas? Dean?) in order to present their robot...
Of course, these were all with the expressed consent of FIRST, and I assume some proof had to be provided that no work was done...
