MC: Red alliance ready? Blue alliance ready?
Dean: Wait, where are my partners?
Game announcer: Dean, this event is for alliances of one.
Dean: Oh, OK. I'm ready, then.
Team 102 driver: Are you SURE you don't want to use your Segway?
Dean: Sometimes, science and technology can't help you against science and technology.
MC: OK, then 3... 2... 1... GO!
Dean: Hey, attacking your opponent isn't graciously professional! OUCH!
Team 102 driver: Oops.
MC: Let's try this again. 3... 2... 1 ... GO!

Dean was later heard to say: I should have used the Segway when I had the chance. Durn science and technology!

Girl behind glass with wristband: "Waiting for Dean to begin running is almost as bad as waiting for him to finish speaking."

[Chief Pride]

Old Lady: Okay, I guess denim does make your bottom look good!

[JaneYoung]

Dean: I really hate it when a song sticks in my mind during moments like this.
*starts singing under his breath*:

Running on - running on empty
Running on - running blind
Running on - running into the sun
But I'm running behind...

Orion:
Yes, but remember the rest:
*finishes the song thought*:

Everyone I know, everywhere I go
People need some reason to believe
I don't know about anyone but me
If it takes all night, that'll be all right
If I can get you to smile before I leave.

Dean: Well, what are we waiting for, let's make 'em smile.

Who will win the showdown of the century? The Hunter Orion or Denim-man? This Is FIRST: WWE for N3rds!

[Barry Bonzack]

Conversation amoung members in the crowd: "There is no way students designed the one on the denim team."

[AndyB]

Orion: Really—I'm the fastest robot in the nation and you pit me against this guy? He'll be lucky to avoid chafing!

[Lil' Lavery]

Dean lost.

[Daniel_LaFleur]

... and then Dean showed us why he prefers robotics over athletics.

[Matt Attallah]

You turn to the right and you can ride out of this. You turn to the left and you see how deep the rabbit hole gets...

[Gary.C]

Orion : Dean, why are you taking a break before you even started.

[Wayne Doenges]

Miss Seggy (the Segway): "Orion, if you win this race I will be yours forever."
Orion: "Just watch my dust."
*Orion looses*
Miss Seggy: "Oh Dean, I will be yours forever."

[NorviewsVeteran]

Dean: I give you 6 weeks and this is what I get back?

[Joe G.]

Although Orion got off to an early lead, Dean's height allowed him to cross under the overpass undeterred, while orion got hung up on a trackball. Afterwords, a thrilled Dean commented "This had to be the one year we took away human players..."
