Today we’re honoring Grant Imahara @opensauce Get involved with his STEAM Foundation: grantimaharafoundation.org/ (grantimaharafoundation.org/) @grantimahara #opensauce

We are completely devastated to report that @grantimahara has passed away. Grant was one of the brightest and most creative individuals we have ever known. He was a GiantNut winner, a Judge, a Mythbuster, and a great friend. Our hearts go out to his family. We love you Grant. RIP

Very moving and wonderful eulogy for @grantimahara by David Calkins (founder of @RoboGames) servomagazine.com/magazine/a…

Today we honor and say goodbye to Marc Thorpe, the creator of robot fighting sports. Without this remarkable human being, creative genius, and pioneer, there would be no BattleBots, Robot Wars, RoboGames, NHRL, Robot Ruckus, Extreme Robots and so on and so on. Marc touched all our lives and fought the good fight so we could all pursue this amazing sport. This community starts with him, and during its darkest moments he held the torch. We are eternally grateful to you Marc, and we’ll see you on the other side. Love to you and to your spirit that will live on forever.

This Thursday, not only will we award the GIANT NUT, but also four BEST IN SHOW trophies. These include awards for: The Most Destructive Robot, The Founders Award, Rookie of the Year, and the Grant Imahara Award for Best Design. Who would your choices be?

Hey @elonmusk & @finkd: forget the UFC - why not a real death match? Build a combat robot (or use two of our champions) and face off in our BattleBots arena. The ultimate grudge match in Vegas! Proceeds go to STEM charities. We dare you.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE BattleBots Announces New Robot Competition and Revamped Destruct-A-Thon show. Las Vegas, NV – Saturday August 17, 2024 – BattleBots Destruct-A-Thon, the explosive live Vegas robot combat show, today announced that that it will be returning from its current summer hiatus with a thrilling new format for the popular show and an exciting new robot fighting competition featuring star BattleBots teams from all over the United States. The new show format will be a major reworking of the successful stage show, which recently completed over 300 performances since it first smashed and exploded its way onto the Vegas scene at the start of 2023. It will feature more intense battles, drama, and increased jeopardy. “Over the past year and a half, Destruct-A-Thon has wowed audiences of all ages and earned critical acclaim with its mix of mechanical mayhem, entertainment and spectacle,” said BattleBots founder Trey Roski. “The reviews and ratings for the show have been excellent, but we felt it was time to up the stakes and introduce even more destruction and drama into the show, so we’ve taken the decision to re-work it for the Fall to enable Destruct-A-Thon to thrive into 2025 and beyond. This will be done during August, traditionally a slow period for Vegas ticket sales, but I’m delighted that many of the original team members will be returning for the new look Destruct-A-Thon next month following a short hiatus.” "We are incredibly proud of what everyone has achieved with BattleBots Destruct-A-Thon so far," said Roski, who announced the hiatus to cast and crew last week. “Our talented and dedicated team has built something really special, and with this new format we’re confident that we’ll be on track to become a permanent fixture in the Las Vegas entertainment calendar. There’s no better place to witness robot fighting than the BattleBots Arena, right in the heart of the fight capital of the world." In addition to the revamped live show, BattleBots also announced that many weekend performances of Destruct-A-Thon will include the new Fall FaceOff competition, featuring robots and teams from all over the United States, including many faces made famous by the BattleBots TV shows. The FaceOffs see four robots competing each weekend in a round robin competition. The fights will be shown on BattleBots’ hugely popular YouTube channel, enabling millions of viewers all over the world to stream and see the latest developments in robot combat. These FaceOffs will serve as pre-qualifying matches for the upcoming BattleBots World Championships, slated for filming in Las Vegas early 2025. Tickets for the new look Destruct-A-Thon, including the special FaceOff weekends, are on sale now with the first performance scheduled for Friday September 6th. Trey Roski said: “I hope audiences in Las Vegas will continue to support us. We offer the best family-friendly show in the County, and the only live robot combat experience in the world, exclusively in our own Arena. Come and enjoy the destruction from September 6th and beyond.”

Your thoughts? #BattleBots @Discovery

BotFans — We just received heartbreaking news that Nola Garcia has passed away. Nola was the Executive Director of BattleBotsIQ (BotsIQ). Nola ran the program with unbound passion and inspired so many kids to get into robot combat sports. There would be no Witch Doctor, Icewave, Biteforce, Rotator, HyperShock, and many more without her passion for STEM education and robot fighting. We love you Nola and our hearts go out to your family 💔
