Re: Most Unlikely Places You've Found FRC People

In a college class. Apparently a former college mentor from 1747's 2010 team (which I was a student on) happened to be sampling my Digital electronic s class and recognized my 2010 team shirt I was wearing that day. He wasn't involved much during that short bit (fall preseason only) hence why I didn't initially recognize him.

Keep in mind that this was my freshman year of college, that 2010 was my Junior year of high school, and that we were at Purdue's College of Technology (now Polytech) in New Albany, 180 miles from West Lafayette and completely devoid of FIRST.

Over there, I never expected to come across much FRC (minus the few students who were old 2783 buddies of mine), and if I did, not from my other former team and also somebody who was a mentor then, now as a student taking the same class.

Small world, I tell you.
