Thanks, Andy. I’ll make sure Ed and 648 are there to see. There’s sooooo many great nominees. Good luck to those nominated.

Great idea, putting the WFA in the opening ceremony. Although the separate WFA ceremony last year was very well done (and looked great on the webcast), its time coincided with activities on other fields – causing some people to miss it.

No one at the FIRST Championship should miss the Woodie Flowers Award ceremony.

Does anyone know who won this years WFA?

Yup. I am completely surprised no one started a thread about it the moment it was announced. Tsk tsk, you guys should’ve paid more attention than that. I guess all the truely dedicated folks are at Atlanta right now.

I will give you three hints. He is from IL. He is a game announcer. He likes to wears tie dye.

I would give you more hints, but I don’t think you need anymore than that.
