Themes for FRC games

[Hitchhiker 42]

I think that the theme was useful in ways other than for us (the students and mentors). While most of us didn't really care about the theme and got down to business building and making a robot work, the theme was useful in the spreading of FIRST to others. The theme let outside spectators (those not actively involved with FIRST) to get more acquainted with the game and enjoy it more. In that sense, the theme definetly did a good job.

Beyond that, it was fun seeing entire hockey arenas filled up medieval-dressed people, pits, fields, and robots. I loved it!
