My first TV interview :-D

Well, today during school my teammate and I were called down to my mentors office and we both were told that we would be interviewed for the local news tonight. At first I was a bit nervous (I'm not too good at all the public speaking stuff), but once I got into the interview I was alright. Then the interviewer asked me "How many teams are competing in Atlanta?" and for some odd reason I blurted out "Oh around 700 teams". I must have been thinking of the amount of students at the GTR or something like that, anyways, after I was done and the interviewer moved on to my teammate my mentor says "There are only about 400 teams going to Atlanta" and I replied "What did I say?" and she said "700".

Oh well, hopefully they won't use that part of the interview, my bad .

Re: My first TV interview :-D

I'm sure it'll be OK. Remember that there are also Lego League teams, as well as Vex teams participating I believe. You may want to clarify it, but it's up to you.

Remember, it's just a technicality. What is important is that you got to go on TV and advertise your team and the organization. Congratulations

We also gave her some footage of our robot blocking 1680 and dumping in the side goal, so I think that'll show off our robot a bit . Too bad not many people here will know who the triplets are haha.

Re: My first TV interview :-D

I know who the triplets are! Anyway, I don't think there are people taking notes about how many teams there will be in Atlanta infront of their televisions, so you'll be fine. Yay for your team getting interviewed to let more people know about FIRST!
