Did anyone see Dean on Good Morning America this morning? Some short but cool West Michigan Regional footage in there.

Hey Tom-
Did you record the footage?
If so, could you give it to Norm to view at the meeting? That would be awesome..

My brother has the tape and as far as I know he'll take it to the meeting. There's a shot of the team sitting in the stands in the background at the end!

I saw it I like how they threw in the question about IT and Dean avoided the question so smoothly. I have a feeling if hes ever going to reveal what IT is it will be at a FIRST competition because thats what he would want the most is publicity for FIRST. So it'll probably be revealed at either this years nationals or next years nationals. I kinda forget what it was about I wasn't really awake at the time I was watching it but yeah it was cool and whoever else watched it post what it said so it might jar my memory.

I got tossed to some webmail portal.

Did anyone happen to notice that one of the robots they showed in the GMA video was team #535 (Viking I)?
We came in second at the West Michigan Regional and posted the second highest score of 568. This is also the second highest score posted in the past 5 regionals.
I would also like to thank our alliance partners for picking us. Team #111 (thanks for the certificate) team #74 and the others (I can't remember the other numbers. My mind is old and I forget a lot)
