Go to Post I don't mind being odd...I like to - listen - to Dean Kamen's speeches. They make sense. I don't get to listen to a lot of sense in the world, just a lot of noise. - JaneYoung [more]

Cool Re: Oklahoma Kickoff A Huge Success

I second that, the kickoff was great! I'm still not sure what was more impressive though, all the rookie teams getting into building the kit bots, or 850 people getting their lunch in just under 6 minutes! That was nuts! I guess to us hungry Okie FIRSTers, it didn't take too much prodding to get us to run through the lunch lines though haha.

I'll also second that it was a really long day; the kitbot transmissions threw us for a loop, weren't expecting them to change from last years' so we had to figure out how to put them together on the spot. At first, we couldn't find the directions, not that we would have used them if we had them of course...

Other than that, everyone did a great job! A big thanks to all the volunteers who showed up and made it all possible!
