It was a fairly strange thing to see from in the stands!

It shot out of our bot as hard as I've ever seen it kick, bounced off one of the vertical poles on the tower and back into the opposing alliance's home zone. Then it proceeded to ricochet off the side wall and directly into the goal. We scored against our selves and the ball never touched the floor after we kicked it!

That beats our driver accidentally using the high power setting at Michigan State Championship so a guy waiting around to load the robot on the next match not watching the field got hit in the upper torso area

All in all, a very strange year for field malfunctions.

We had that happen and West Michigan. I accidentally hit a robot into the goal and when they tried to get out the chains were tangled with them and they ripped them off. They had to disable the robot because the chains were still stuck on them. That match was not replayed either.
