Here's my opinion about cheering during awards. I think it is GREAT to hear teams cheering for other teams that won awards, even if they don't agree with who won. A lot of teams are "friends", so if my friend would win an award in a sport I would be there cheering for them, what's different with FIRST?
Let's all CHEER ON!  |
you got it!!! This was my first year at FIRST, and I never really cheered for anything else with as much passion!!! someof you may have noticed that i was cheering even during lunch time ,but that was just because someone had just brought me my food and i was starving. One thing I did happen to notice was that some teams got super mad and frustrated when our team stood up. Or there was one team where a guy yelled at us saying that he would have to make sure to bring ear plugs the next day,because we were too loud. That didn't make me mad though,but it made me want to get our team to join in with his and cheer for their bot. Then he would see how much more exciting watching matches can be, and truely is(FIRST FEVER!!).
When we made it to Houston this year I got chill bumps walking into a massive stadium, and when i saw our robot stacking tetras it was intense. This might just be the FIRST fever I have ,but it seems contagious on team #364!!!!!!!
WHO?
RA!!!!!
By the way I would like you say a thank you to team 45 for the "best alliance parter award". Like Mr.Fava said, "That award is one of greatest awards you can get at Nationals. Sure chairmans winners get in the hall of fame, but we received something much, much greater, the respect and friendship of one of the best and oldest teams at FIRST."
(by the way that quote is not perfectly exact but it basically sums up what he told us yesterday afternoon)
