I got a few thanks/Congrats to give out as well

Michelle: without you i wouldn't have as much fun as i did over the weekend, and actually, i wouldn't be able to attend the regional itself

Teams 233, 179, Congrats on winning the Florida regional once again, you guys are starting to become the Florida version of 25 and 103, and i mean in the winning fashion

Team 1649 and 1557, I've seen you guys come a far way, I remember when i was with team 1402, and we drove to your schools to present the FIRST Robotics program. Not to mention us sort of kind of mentoring you guys along. Both of you have grown very quickly and i am amazed at all the work you guys have done and how far each of you have come along. from the. for 1557, winning the chairman in the first year you guys submitted it. and to 1649, for winning this regional for the second time in four years.

Teams 1557 (again), and 1902: you guys made great alliance partners for team 945. all of us did a great job together

Teams 25 and 103: Thanks for coming out to this regional, I know a lot of people on 25 now and have become good friends through previous events. It was great seeing everyone again.

a quick shoutout for everyone else who came from out of state: (Nica/ Koko Ed, / 238 / 501 / 1616 / 1612 / 1885 / 1922 / sorry if i missed you, running on fumes right now)

To all the people behind the scenes higher up than me: everyone did a amazing job to keeping the event managed excellently and i was amazed to how well the event was actually run. Im proud to be part of the volunteer.

Team 1902 (again) and team 86: thanks for letting me come to your party after the event, i had a great time and this was one of the many bright points of the weekend

Teams 79, 744, and 1251: you guys gave the winning alliance a good run for their money. some people mentioned Tempest In Tampa and the whole Tie thing, also noticing at the end of the third match, the score was tied 78-78.... It was THAT close. I hope all of you guys do GREAT at Championships.

I know im missing a lot of thanks/congrats, but be sure i appreciate everything that everyone did at this event.
