This actually happened twice: We would truss the ball, and another robot on our alliance would catch the ball as they drove by completely unprepared to catch.

1st - was at the NE Groton District, where our #8 alliance was playing the #1 alliance of 195, 78, 3719, three great robots. We trussed it, and 178 by accident caught it and immediatly shot it into the 10pt goal. The crowd went crazy and as a driver I still remember the smile on my face. 178 came over to me and said they had no idea they had the capability to catch.

2nd - I think it was either NE District champs but if not, NE Southington District. 558 caught our truss ball by accident. The crowd went crazy and 558 later told me that their catching flaps/arms werent even opened.
