Apology to FIRST Champ. Crew and 179

[Tim Arnold]

Team 1523 (M.A.R.S.) would like to apologize for upsetting the Georgia Dome FIRST Crew by placing bags on seats in a pattern identifying our team number and team 179 (our rookie mentors - also shared a bus with us). 179 had no idea we had done this until they were lectured regarding why the sign was not acceptable and told to quickly remove the display.

Meanwhile, our team had just left the dome for a quick lunch after being selected to participate in the Galileo quarterfinals. A huge (embarrassed) thank you to our alliance partner 1592, the Bionic Tigers, for removing the 1523 display when the FIRST officials were unable to locate us.

Attached are thumbnails of the aforementioned displays in the Georgia Dome.
