Re: Your Best FIRST Experience
Personally, my favorite one was during Palmetto. It was our seventh match, and we were paired with (looks) 271 against 168 and 1319 (at the time, the #1 seed. They also won top rookie seed). This match went down right after we took off our arm, which wasn't doing us much good. I don't know how the guys did it, but they pulled off an 80-30 upset. (It also gave birth to the catch-phrase "Team 1293: Armless, not harmless!") The buzz lasted exactly ten matches, until we were defeated again by 393 and 780. (That match, we were paired with the RoboCards, who became the top seed. Funny how that happens, huh?)
