Re: Most Stacked Regionals ever

I'd have to say that '99 takes the cake for most diverse stacking, though. For all the young'uns out there: First, you stack doughnut-shaped, foam-peanut-filled game pieces known as "floppies" in and on your robot. Then you stack your robot on this large mobile platform called the "puck" (and hope that the "puck" is in the right place to give you a 2x multiplier). Then you put the "floppies" in your robot as high up as you can put them (or rather, taller than the head ref's measuring pole)--and keep them there until after the refs figure out the score. tl;dr: stack your robot on the puck, stack game pieces on top of your very tall robot.

And you thought noodling cans was exciting.
