Semifinal 5 of battlecry our alliance went and said “let’s have some fun” knowing we weren’t moving on. Us (3467) and our alliance captain, 2836, preceded to build two ten stacks and then 3467 shot 4 totes down about 4-5 feet on our platform.
If we lose, lose with style.
Oh and we got a red card for a >6 high stack but the ref signed it for us:D
I know our video team recorded it but they’re videos that need to be shared via YouTube which will take a while. I’ll have them up by tomorrow night most likely.
Plus our alliance partners were so fun to work with, too. 2836 was great at doing 2 consistent 42-point stacks plus 3 yellow totes for the Bonus Circle and was the main proponent of the 10stack idea. 5686, you were so fun to work with (in the pits and on the field) and we hope you liked our cheesecake
At above twitch start at about 8:16 to see match discussed.
Everyone witnessing this - “Wh - What is that !!?”
Knew we just saw them snatch true victory out of defeat - this was the only moment all season I saw the whole crowd erupt in appreciation of exceptional achievement! congrats Windham and BETA for the moment of the year!
(Overlooked you see 228 at the end stacking 3 stack with RC’s - an amazing overlooked performance by them, a team still working to its peak).
The definition of going out with a bang.
I’d have to say though, the best part about this was watching it be knocked down afterwards, the entire crowd had a laugh and a good time. Props to you guys.
Thank you Beta, Windham, and Wirecats for giving everyone in attendance a treat! WPI has hosted two amazing 2015 events this year with some of the best moments of Recycle Rush occurring in the Harrington Arena!
