After watching one of our matches, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar visited Team 330 in our pit to get up close and personal with Skyhook!

What an awesome photo. If I were you I would frame up this picture of a living legend and your robot.
Extremely jealous.
Wasn’t there supposed to be a shootaround as well?
I’d like to personally thank 330 for allowing me to bring Kareem to their pit and take up time from their day. 
As his tour guide for the day, it seemed like Kareem really enjoyed working with Skyhook and learning about FIRST. He got to shoot with their robot a few times in the pit. Unfortunately for time/scheduling’s sake, he wasn’t able to spend as much time as was planned with the BeachBots and Skyhook. But thank you, 330, for spending time with us! We really appreciate your efforts.

Today after our family Easter lunch someone had the TV on and the show Splash came on. The segment with Kareem had a section were he was wearing a Skyhook T-shirt. Really cool.
Found the video on ABC. Episode 1. He is the last diver and around 31:56 he is wearing the shirt.
