This video is literally not targeted at the people that already enjoy the thrill of competition.
"Mainstream media" is a whole other can of worms...

I agree Ty. Pretty much every promotional video that FIRST has done has the same stuff in it. This was something different.
Medieval theme stuff is definitely only for nerds, because you know, Game of Thrones was only popular in the nerd crowd. Same with the Lord of the Rings movies or the Hobbit movies. Only nerds went to go see those.
