Re: Worst you've seen to the Defenses?

Our driver on 3005 got a trophy from TRR this summer when he broke off the polycarb divider on the batter ramps. That seems pretty common though.

The worst I personally witnessed was as game announcer at Alamo, and this all happened about 5 feet from me. 4091 accidentally used the wrong auto code in a match, making them go full speed over the moat and crash into the driver's station. They weren't done though, and about 2 seconds later the robot did a 180, and went full speed back to the center of the field. It hit the defense divider by the secret passage right in the middle of their intake. The entire defense holder got ripped off the field. This was only one of many delays for the very long event.
