Arena Zamboni?

Does anyone think it would be GP to build and bring an Arena Zamboni to a regional? The idea would be sort of like a Roomba for the Lunacy arena, deploy it at breaks and it drives around in a pattern and sucks up the crud and dirt and sprockets on the floor - so the volunteers don't have to.

I am trying to build some excitement for this on my team. I figure we can use last year's controller and some ultrasonic sensors. Even a real vacuum cleaner/shop vac (with a 12 to 120 V inverter...) and perhaps 3 or 4 batteries. Oh, it would be autonomous.

Comments?
