Re: pic: FIRST deck of cards
Rob and I started right when we got to the pits first thing Friday morning. We just spent the day walking the pits and going to matches. All of the kids on the team knew our robot up and down and they didn't need much help running system checks or fixing problems. Most of them were first year students and became very proficent rather quickly.
So since 45, 65, and 111 were right next to us we got Raul, Ken Patton, and Andy Baker to sign them right away. Mike Norton, Dr. Joe, Mr. Bill, and Al Skierkiewicz (he was inspecting) were all around the pit area. Basically if you continuously walk every row of pits for the whole day you will eventually see just about everyone. We saw Brian Beatty, Mike Martus, and Christopher Husmann in the pits, two mentors from RAGE on our way to watch a match, found Andy Grady in Curie, and corralled JVN, Chris C., Joel, and Karthik in 229's pit. Some people like Woody and Dave Lavery were out on the fields and we had to get some help in acquiring those. Other than that it's just having the time to wander the pits. It was a lot of fun hunting all these cool people down. Definitely one of my favorite FIRST experience.
