Re: How were your announcers?

Ours got better as things got more exciting for the hartford regional. I'm not sure who the mc was, but he was on roller skates, and he was good too. By the finals our annoucers were great, everything was pumped, and i was yelling my head off and dancing the macarena to eveyrisngle song.

Re: How were your announcers?

Ah Mark Leon...he is quite the character. Never had the chance to work with him, but hopefully I'll get to soon.


Did you mean how were your MC's or announcers? MC's are the ones on the field to introduce the teams, where as the announcer calls the play by play.

The announcer at the GLR was great! Very enthusiastic, positive, a great guy!

I'll post a picture of him when I find one.

You don't have to look too far. GLR had Verbrugge as MC and Copioli announcing. 'Nuff said.

UTC New England! Our MC was great! The roller skate thing was definately funny and made things more exciting. Plus, with Andy Grady doing the announcing made an awesome regional event. Even if you were just listening from the pits! Thanx guys! Grady = An amazing and exciting event!

Re: How were your announcers?

It was hilarious when Blair was on the roller skates and went up the ramp and into the wall. The people in the drivers station freaked out when he went full speed into the wall, shaking it *just* a little bit

Re: How were your announcers?

Dan Green is my favorite mc. I suppose he'll be announcing Midwest this weekend. I can't wait. We've never been to West Michigan, how are the announcers there?

As a part of Team 85 I have only seen Dave Verbrugge mc the past four years at West Michigan. He always does a great job. It may be the easiest regional to get people fired up at because the level of competition is awesome.

Good Luck!

Re: How were your announcers?

All I can say is that Wayne from 2Train robotics was the greatest announcer I have ever seen and been priveliged enough to know personally. He was energetic, fun, and even though his team was competing, he didn't show a hint of favoritism and he really helped us by "lobbying" with the refs when we were down on our luck and needed just those few precious extra seconds to fix our bot during the elimination rounds. He also did great keeping the crowd involved while we were trying to get the field problems fixed during the finals. Keep up the great work, Wayne, I know you will! Doot-da-do!
