Re: 2007 Boilermaker Regional!!!
Hello to all that are attending the Boilermaker. I believe this will be the WOBOT's (Team 141) maiden voyage to the Boilermaker and we are wondering what to expect. Sounds like in years past this has proven to be fun place to be when the robots take stage. Good luck to all and we are looking forward to making new friends! We had a great time at IRI last year and from the looks of the team list many of the same teams will here. Only a couple more days before we pack the bus!

Like IRI, you'll find one of the best group of volunteers anywhere making the event run smoothly. Maybe they just don't let us see them sweat, but they seem to have more fun putting it on than the participants. Last year the competition was great. With the help of some awesome alliance partners we brought home our first gold in five years! I hope we get a chance to repeat that performance. ![]() |

Re: 2007 Boilermaker Regional!!!
I gotta say, last year the Wobots (141) was one of my favorite teams from West Michigan. Looking forward to seeing what you've come up with for this year's competition.

http://first.purdue.org/boilermakerregional We'll have some campus and facility tours, a great team social dinner, social activities in the rec center, a ton of great teams to compete with, scholarships to give out, awesome awards ceremonies, awesome volunteers, practice field, a building packed with lots of excitement and cheering, high energy, concessions which I can say are cheaper than most places, and... hmm.. what else.. hopefully everyone will have a fabulous time! I'm not biased or anything though.. ![]() Look forward to seeing everyone there!! Thanks, |

Re: 2007 Boilermaker Regional!!!
Like always, I'm in town because I stayed here for Spring Break and I have a very comfy futon for any ladies who are roadtripping and don't want to pay for a hotel room. I'm 5 minutes to the armory walking since I'm a RA in one of the lovely Purdue dorms.

Re: 2007 Boilermaker Regional!!!
As one of the home teams for BMR, let me tell all you that I'm psyched about this regional. West Laf may not have too many tourist-y things, but we have the most restaurants per capita in the US!

Re: 2007 Boilermaker Regional!!!
Oh man it’s almost here!
Boilermaker is looking tough with 3 regional champs, 1 runner up, 4 quarter finalist and 2 semi finalists coming to town and 7 seven other teams with one regional under their belts. I can’t wait to see 1501 and 85’s amazing looking lifters in action, the lollypop licking the competition and a bunch of quality Indiana and Michigan teams in their first contest of the year. Can anyone imagine how much better 45 will be after another week with their practice bot? With teams from as far away as California, Puerto Rico and New Hampshire this is shaping up to be the best Boilermaker ever. Oh and look our for the revised Goat grabber!

Re: 2007 Boilermaker Regional!!!
Looks like the Chop Shop (166) will be representing NH solo at Boilermaker. Not surprising -- it is a long road trip, about 1000 miles.
Congratulations on the Judge's Award and on seeding in the top third at Manchester. No match results are up on the FIRST site; how did your team fare in the eliminations? Last edited by Richard Wallace : 12-03-2007 at 16:10. Reason: corrected team number |

![]() We are actually flying. So... yeah. About 4 hours between when we leave and land. There's a layover in Detroit. And we weren't in the top 3. 1st was 501, 2nd was 175, and 3rd was 1519. And... we weren't picked for the eliminations... we were, however, the alternate and got some nice seats in front of the field ![]() It will also be nice seeing teams that we saw in Cleveland two years ago. I specifically remember 135 and 931. Last edited by Dan Petrovic : 12-03-2007 at 16:08. |
