2007 FRC game pieces

[Jon Jack]

We have a box or two or three available. PM me if you want some, well send some your way. I believe we have spoilers, keepers and ringers.

Jon Jack - will do, thanks!

Rack 'N Roll sounds like it was a challenging game to play. We started with Overdrive.

It was interesting... FIRST tends to throw out weird games every now and then, and it was certainly one of them. I didn't like Rack 'N Roll much at the time, but in retrospect I think it was a "keeper."

The bracket at the championship that year was quite something. Team Hammond (71) was 1 match away from winning their unprecedented 5th Championship when they got beaten out by an 8th seed alliance led by 190, who became the first 8th seed to win the championship (and I think the second 8th seed to make it out of the quarterfinals in Atlanta in recent history)

I was wandering about my college campus and spotted a keeper hanging up on the wall. I smiled. I believe it also tipped of Chris Picone as to the location of the robotics team.

Not only that, it was the ONLY alliance that wouldn't have had a second championship team. At that point, 71 was the only team with more than one. It took another year for that barrier to fall--and it fell fast and hard, as two teams in 2008 and two in 2009 joined that elite group of teams.

Talk about a surprise--of the 4 alliances, 3 had previous champions, and none of those three won.
