Actually...more than that has happened...On thursday, a bot got hassled in the end zonewhile someone was trying to cap the center tetra. The bot's arm got twisted torward the plexiglass, disengaging with the tetra, after it cleared the plexiglas barrier. I got hit square on my safety glasses with it, leaving a nice dent on my forehead. It's really not all that big though.
