Re: Question: What was the first FIRST competition you attended?
My first was the Saint Louis Regional in 2004. We weren't sure how our robot would run, since we cut off a huge portion of it just a few days before ship (wow, that seems to be a recurring theme with our team...). We ran great and made it into the finals on the 8th seeded alliance but lost in our first round. I spent a lot of time following Ricky around, scouting (both in the stands and in the pits), and trading pins. I also remember being the only girl from our team to be able to come to that regional (we did have two female mentors with us, Mrs. and Paula Vertz, however).
