Who remembers this show? I always thought it was hilarious that people who were clever enough to build remote control robots would channel all their energies into beating the innards out of other robots. Battlebots 135245

Battlebots 135245 I never saw the show - but out at the campground, there used to be a BIG competition every summer with "Battle Boats". The people would spends hundreds of hours, and a large amount of money, and pour themselves into creating these spectacular remote-controlled boats - and then they'd come to the lake from all over the United States to demolish them! Battlebots 988160 The building part I can totally understand. There would be a nice sense of accomplishment with that...but to build it specifically to destroy them?? I never quite understood that.

Maybe it's a guy thing. To know that someone created something magnificent... and you reduced his dream to rubble...

Excuse me, I don't want you to see me like this. Battlebots 987565

I loved Battle Bots!! Just last week my boss and I were talking about it, wondering what ever happened to the show. Do you know Rob?

Apparently BattleBots still exists; it's just not shown on TV anymore. Here's their website:
