2008 IRI (Indiana Robotics Invitational)

[Pat McCarthy]

So, when will volunteer assignments be sent out? Last year I got my assignment the Sunday before the event. Maybe this year we can get it a few days sooner?

Does anyone know if the IMAX theater at the Indiana State Museum will be showing The Dark Knight?

Doubtful as they usually only show educational IMAX films, but the IMAX on the south side of Indy will absolutely be playing the movie. Pretty sure it's sold out already though, at least for opening night. Look up Kerasotes 16 though.

Will there be a midnight showing? I know Bacon would attend

On Thursday night at 12:02 a.m. there is a showing of 'The Dark Night' at the KeraSotes on 4325 S. Meridian Street, Indianapolis, IN 46217


If you go to fandango.com, you should be able to buy tickets in advance.

Here's a map link for directions to the theater.

Hmm Saturday night or Sunday morning? Decisions, decisions....

Hey guys,

I'm working on a media project about FIRST and I was hoping that at IRI I would be able to interview some people about their team, FIRST, the game this year, and how FIRST has inspired you. If you would be interested in being interviewed please PM me and I'll give you some of the questions that would be asked. Oh and...if you see a girl in a yellow cape from 1675 with a video camera taking video of random teams, this is what it's for, she's not crazy and hasn't lost her team.

Is anyone up for t-shirt trading? Most everyone on my team has a Thunderchickens shirt except me. I'm feeling a little left out.

[Renee Becker-Blau]

I'm up for T-shirt trading if anyone will exchange for a 1675 UPS shirt... or chocolate chip cookies...

Team 1675 is really excited to be going to IRI:

I made this with pictures from previous IRI events, it's a bit messy because I was just making sure the computer was working but Kevin told me I had to put it up anyways. Thank you for the pictures! I'll make an after IRI one as well

Renee, I love it!

The music is great and the pictures you used had me laughing out loud. Great job.

[Rupnick]

Y did you have you use all the pics that make me look stupid lol that was awesome!

[Sunbun]

Just checked the NASA TV schedule...

IRI will be broadcast on the Public and Education channels on Saturday from 9 to 5 (Eastern). Awesome!

(I'm just not used to waking up at 6AM on a Saturday...)

Good luck to all teams attending, by the way.
