In a grueling contest of man vs robot, the agility of man was taxed. The robot ultimately won.

Looks like the coach didn't RTFM (Read The FIRST Manual). You are supposed to stand by the DRIVERS not the ROBOT.

"If you liked that (giggle) watch when I press this button! The box opens up to show the full blown sound system playing "We are the Champions" and lasers shoot out and we even have one of those colored disco light balls. Yeah, it eats batteries but it looks really cool!"



And this is the reason I started doing robot inspection.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #371

Although it looked cool, nobody was willing to ride the prototype 3-wheeled Segway.

[NPOE]
I didn't realize until this past month that the Segway wasn't relased to the public until 2001. Kinda crazy that Mr. Kamen is always* introduced as "the inventor of the Segway" when FIRST is a decade older. I wonder how he was introduced pre-2001.

*the i.am.FIRST special did a great job of highlighting his other achievements.

Driver: So... should we tell Coach that when they said, Mentor Match, they didn't mean... this?!

Operator: Nah. He'll figure it out and in the meantime, he'll have a ball.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #371

The coach was so proud of his team for getting the robot finished a week ahead of time. Then he came onto the field, saw that everyone else's robot was built to pick up tubes instead of balls and realized with fear and embarrassment that they had used the 2001 manual instead of the 2011 manual.

A coach on the field means it is a perfect time to chase them, they get a work out and you have fun

There's no workout motivation quite like 10 points for each chin-up.

Looks like a game hint. Next years game? Herding coaches off the field.
