Hell yeah!!
but i got another one also:

Way back in 1999: the year of the floppy, my first year. Rage had our trademarked arm, as always, i was a rookie arm driver, and we we average. In the best match we had that year i don't even remember the score. Anyways, it goes like this.
We were against some team with a big basket that was made of some sort of wires or tubing for walls. The game progressed, and it came down to the final thirty seconds or so. Everyone prepared for lifting their baskets of floppies up. As we lifted ours up in the last few seconds, the basket got caught in the other teams wire basket thing. Me being a freshman, not knowing rules too well, and being really aggresive, started prying our basket out of theirs. Exactly how i don't know, but it ended up with me knocking the other robot over. It didn't just fall though, it fell, hit the outside pipe border, and smacked the top of one of the camera men's cameras, and knocked him over.
i believe i saw his video later, and it was the funniest video ever. A regular match then some sort of problem, you couldn't tell from the angle, and then smack the camera just whacked and it was then filming the floor.
Good times.

Story 2:
"KILL THAT GOAL!!! KILL THAT GOAL!!!''
there's probly 6 people who know what that means, but it was the best moment i've had in four years
