If you happen to be around Bay Area in Cali, then check out the biggest robot Olympics in existence: RoboGames 2008. With over 70 mind-shattering events at the RoboGames, you won’t find any friendly robots cooking or committing to hair transplant surgery here. Battle robots, walking humanoids, soccer bots, sumo bots, and even androids that do kung-fu are put to the ultimate test. It’s an open event that any average schmo can participate in; so, check it out if you’re around the area this weekend.
