Rumble at the Rock II was the second Rumble at the Rock event held by [[frc23|team 23]] in Plymouth, Massachusetts on July 18 and 19, [[1997]] as a part of the annual Plymouth Waterfront Festival. The first day was used for setup and grudge matches, and the competition was held on the 19th. Overnight, a thunderstorm knocked over signs and stands and the playing field was still wet during early matches. An Elvis impersonator sang the National Anthem<ref name="rumble">[https://web.archive.org/web/19991011115236/http://pages.prodigy.com/pnta/rumble2.htm Rumble at the Rock II Awards]</ref>.
