LOL looks like the Robocats will save us from posting similar video. Now if we could only get together and record some vid of robots trying to pin other bots' trailers and such. Perhaps by the end of the week, we can.

They were all there in stock at Home Depot.

We're lucky to have a smaller field area - we'd have had to buy twice as much if we were constructing a full field like we've done at the old facility since our inception.

It's not a bad deal when you consider how many other local teams will use the practice area before (and after) ship. I'm sure other teams and organizations who build larger practice facilities and share with others arrive at the same conclusion.
