It seemed like they had been through a lot of stress, and they didn't have any more of the bolt they needed. I walked up (still in my volunteer shirt) and asked them calmly if I could take the broken bolt. Then I walked over to my old pit (701 alumni here) right next door and rummaged through one of the bolt boxes until I found a couple of similar size. I handed them off and they seemed a little shocked.
Sounds like us, 1960! Thursday was a little blurry as we had some "minor" last minute repairs to make! (they took all day).

I would like to thank all the teams that provided us with support. I constantly sent kids out begging for parts, pieces, programmers, mechanical advice and more. They NEVER came up short thanks to all the great teams at Davis!
