Referee: "Robot touching the pyramid... no more than allowable frisbees onboard... proper color of bumpers... everything inside frame perimeter... OK, looks good... wait, you're wearing forehead protectors. Can't let you compete."
Student: "The manual just says wearing safety glasses, not wearing safety glasses over your eyes."
Referee: "Oh, OK. Carry on." *puts glasses up*

Somewhere off-camera is a mentor shaking his head thinking "I told them we needed the robot to line up autonomously to save all the time and effort every match. It's too bad the solution they came up with only worked for spherical chickens in a vacuum. Oh well, maybe next year!"

Dang those strict build season rules...
I wonder when they'll let me out of this cage?

(Aren't the prisoners supposed to wear stripes, not the guards??)
