Team Talon 1598 is very excited to see all our friends at the VA Regional. My daughter and another FTC 5086 teammate will be working field reset. Look for the pink and teal tutus.

There are 51 blue banners coming to Richmond, with 36 of those won after 2005.
BBQ = 0.78
SAUCE = 0.55
Waterloo stats for comparison

There are 8 teams from out-of-state:
3 from MD
2 from NC
1 from FL
1 from PA
1 from NY

All 3 defending champions will all be attending: 1262, 1541, and 1610

7 of the teams are as old or older the Virginia Regional: 122, 346, 384, 388, 401, 422, and 435
On the other hand, VARI will be fielding 4 rookie teams: 4949, 4969, 5279, and 5323

I'm looking forward to this event.

[mrmummert]

I'm pretty sure Dan means these tutu's. John is gonna be so embarrassed....
or not.

[DRH2o]

Yup those are the ones. You are a bad man to do that to John. The girls love him for wearing that. He is such a great guy.

[dellagd]

2607 is sooo excited to attend this year! Cant wait!

[fnsnet]

We're looking forward to seeing all of you this week!

(And for the record, John LET me take that picture of him in the Tutu.)

[pyroslev]

It's The Field Supervisor's turn to wear the tutu my friends.

I'm looking forward to the anniversary of the event. If things keep up at this rate, things look like they're gonna go well.

Impressive stats. I have to ask, is there an easy way to calculate BBQ and SAUCE? or do you just have to brute force go through every team?

I just used /team/####/history on www.thebluealliance.com for every team. If anyone can find an easier way of doing it, that would be appreciated

[1629GaCo]

Team 1629 -GaCo is excited about attending the Virginia Regional for the first time. Hopefully we will be seeing some warmer weather!!! Good luck to all teams at the competition!
