I'm not sure who did it (I was working field reset), but on Thursday, one of the low goals by the red driver's station at Crossroads took a gnarly hit (see attached picture). It was "fun" getting the box to fit back together (it took some hose clamps to keep the box from springing apart). While it doesn't look like much, consider the size and thickness of the tubing...

What else did I see? Besides 1108's smoked wiring in finals match 1 (and impressive comeback in match 3), I do recall a team letting the smoke out of a 550 motor, prompting the FTA to grab a fire extinguisher (not needed luckily).

Another team that I will not mention had an acrylic motor shield shatter upon a collision, deflating a ball with a loud pop and creating a lot of shards.

Two teams (1108 was one of them) had go pro cameras fall off their bots and get sent for a ride (I bet that made for some interesting footage).

Although not quite a scar, yet another unnamed team used 3 baggies of lead shot, held in with duct tape, as a ball manipulator counterweight... which came loose one match, releasing the baggies on the floor. All 3 burst when hit by other robots, which made a huge mess, like a "marbles on the floor" prank (such as in the Home alone movies or Animal House). The most memorable part: the sound created by the Vaccum cleaner when the shot was cleaned up.
