Re: Robot's In The D - Article

I was out to eat with a friend of mine and she noticed the game on. She didn't ask what the score was or what inning it was; she simply said "Oh crap I missed it... There was supposed to be a robot throwing the first pitch and I wanted to see it!"

She didn't know that I was involved in FIRST (or what it was at the time) and doesn't pay attention to the news or cared about anything school related. This is proof enough for me that the event had a HUGE impact.

While I don't know how much attention it got outside of SE Michigan, it definitely made an impact way larger than I personally expected here. Two thumbs way way up for 503 and everyone else who was involved with the event!!

Oh and it was shown twice during the game by FSD, but not live.
