[THE DYNAMO]

Team 2984 Viking Robotics is leaving about now, along with 1572 Hammerheads, from san diego. im the main electronics guy and inbounder from 2984, but my mom didn't let me go! we won last year, and we think we will this year too! however, i have to stay home and watch them through our pit webcam.

Ah I'm sorry dude! I'll keep a look out for those teams!

Well my team is not going, but i will be there on Saturday. From going to the la regional i know that 987 is going to be amazing. Also I'm looking forward to what 968 has created this year. Should be a fun regional.

That's crazy. We'll watch some of the videos later. We are in the bus to Vegas and some people are sleeping. Don't want to wake em up! Thanks for the link!

A bus from New York to Las Vegas... wow.

[pigpc1993]

Utah actually! That'd be an intense drive from NY! Team 3716 is from Wasatch Academy. We have kids from all over the world cause we are a boarding school.

[EagleEngineer]

I got mixed up, your name says your location is in NY, i guess i can assume the location of teams, just by what is says on a members CD page... Anyway ill stop by, and say hi, on Saturday, good luck.

[pigpc1993]

Thanks! See ya then!

Team 987 just spent much of the day helping FIRST volunteers set up the practice field and playing field at the venue. The new venue is nice, ample space for a regional of this size. Swing by the pit and say hi, we love meeting all the teams making the trip out to our home town. If you are looking for nearby after event activities, the Las Vegas 51's (minor league affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays) opening weekend is this weekend and I believe they are playing all weekend. The ball field is literally attached to the venue and tickets are pretty cheap. We're excited, the weekend should be lots of fun.

For sure. We Will! We are about 30 minutes from the hotel. About time. Hahaha. It's a 6 hour drive so I think a baseball game might be out of the picture. Who knows though! Thanks for the suggestions! See ya tomorrow.
