The New FIRST official Uniforms

[Robby O]

This year, since the scoring objects are orange and yellow, and since last year, it was particularly hard to spot a FIRST official when needed, there are new mandated uniforms by FIRST. This is a test photo I was able to snag...



The judges will also be wearing similar uniforms, only theirs have flashing stripes running up and down them. Seems like Dean took a few outfit design courses from DEVO...

Which also reminds me that I heard that they would be playing at nationals this year. That could be another good reason for the new uniforms. This is all from a datapacket I picked up heading to www.usfirst.org while scanning the web...

Kit of part's shipped,
Dont let your ideas slip,
are the new gears?
what you didnt hear?

When a new game comes along, you must build it.
just do not wait to long, you must build it.
make sure it's nice and strong, you must build it.

now build it, build it straight, straight and tough, practice great!
six weeks, stay up late, try to build faster, it's not too late
to build it, then ship the crate.

I think that all goes to DEVO's 'Whip It' but I'm not too sure. Someone double check me here, and perhaps if we ask nice enough, FIRST would be kindly enough to let us DEVOted fans know so we could bring our plastic pompadors and DEVOed denim to Nationals.
