Re: [FRC Blog] 2014 Game Hint

8234/57, 61126/1963, 62326/15806

Just putting that string there again so we don't lose focus. We remember what we are trying to figure out.
Anyways.
There has been some stipulation as to if these numbers could be code for something. For those following that pursuit, someone found earlier that the median of the numbers if put in consecutive order is 4. This could be a possible key. I am not educated in this area, but have at it everyone!

Another thing I have realized from looking at this hint and previous hints given by FIRST is that they like to give us hints that connect inside of the hint as well as outside. With that in mind, lets look at the hint.
They possibly connect the ideas using the slashes and differentiate between ideas using the commas. Makes sense right?

Look at the middle numbers: "61126/1963"
We have found that the first number refers to Rockford, Illinois. (Although the 62326 may also refer to Colchester, IL as well, let's just focus on the middle term). Rockford is in Illinois. We have another value as well, the "1963".
My friends and I have two theories.
One:
Rockford is in Winnebago County. The Winnebago 1963 was a travel trailer. Do trailers mind you of something?

Two:
In 1963, the Chicago Bears won the NFL Championship game against the NY Giants 14 to 10. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFL_Cha...hip_Game,_1963) This is where things get interesting. The game was the 31st annual championship game. Now divide the two middle numbers. What do you get? 31.1390...
This would also mean a game of football.

Just some food for thought!
