2016, SCRRF Spring Scrimmage. 4276 goes just about 100% on finding the portcullis in autonomous. They were aiming for the rock wall, which happened to be next to it. They did eventually get that mostly worked out... but it did crop up about once an event after that.
I've also heard of an E-stopped robot continuing to wander slowly across the field. (This was over 10 years ago.) Seems the batteries were surface charging, and the controller had enough voltage to drive the motors--slowly--but not enough to read an E-stop signal from the radio.
