Does anyone know if there will be a webcast of the event?

Remember to stop by FIRST Team 1501's pit. We will be having our annual "Guess the Rivets" contest.
The contest consist of guessing how many rivets are holding our robot together. We give a prize for the closest guess without going over.
Good luck all.

For those coming to Boilermaker, be prepared for ALL weather.
Except, of course, a hurricane or something. Probably.

Indiana in general is like that... down here in southern indiana we had a large ef4 tornado hit and the next week we get snow.

WL isn't quite that extreme (lived there for 11 years, 1999-2010), but weather wise, anything goes. Be prepared.

Hello, not sure if I'm really posting this in the right thread, but I'm wondering where I could get ahold of the match schedule for boilermaker this year. I'd like to stream the competition and hope to catch a few matches with my former team (292!) but as I'm studying abroad in France it makes the timing a little difficult...so knowing the matches would really help! If someone could e-mail me with any information at mlauterb@indiana.edu that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
