I'm sure all our alliance members were in disbelief for a moment when it happened. The funny part of this clip is the few seconds when everyone at their operating stations lets go of their controls and waves their hands in the air in utter excitement and incredulity, then all three blue alliance robots just stop for that moment, and then after the short celebration, back to the routine. I was at the competition, but I must have been busy at the pits and I wasn't there for the moment. I really wish I was. I never knew this happened until our head coach showed me the video a few months after the competition season, and when I first saw it, I was shocked.
