So is this becoming a thing now? 1114 was on Degrassi. 842 has ties to a movie that is coming out soon. 2468 is in Transformers. I'm pretty sure there was a FIRST robot briefly in a TV commercial a while back. Congrats and way to make it LOUD!!!!!

I don't know the details, but it was kinda cool, considering it was Simbot SS... (and by kinda I mean very cool)

Saw it tonight! My brother and I were with another couple FRC alumni, so it was super cool to see that they were allowed to leave the team's competition bumpers on for the shoot!

Congrats guys, awesome way to get yourselves out there!

I'm ashamed to say that MY MOTHER, who has never been to an event but has seen live streaming when I scurried all over the field as FTAA in Las Vegas this year, spotted the FRC bot (didn't know what team it was, but that it was FRC) when I took her to see the movie tonight. I told her it had to be a Rebound Rumble bot and finally saw the team number and told her what it was and the team name. The people in front of us turned around because I accidentally kicked one of their seats when I was trying to figure out the team number and I explained to them what the deal was.

Very cool cameo.

I just got home from watching it and I almost yelled "Hey thats Appreciate!" (only my girlfriend (also FRC) had any idea what I was flipping out about) and then something like "lucky them, why can't we get something like that!" Great way to make it loud.

Now I just might go see the movie. Way to go 2468!

That's killer.

I did notice that it was loaded with 4 balls.

Merci beaucoup!

For any CDers who haven't seen it, there is a reddit thread which includes this GIF of the scene.

I saw the FTC bot first because it showed up first, and you know the Samantha module with the FIRST logo on it is something I've seen oh maybe 10000 times now. This was awesome that you got to do this. The funny second scene the robot was in when the fire exploded in the barn, I jumped because for a moment I thought it was the robot that was sparking. Needless to say I got funny looks when I said, "No! not the robot!"
