Team Numbers in Everyday Places

[Josh Goodman]

Or if I'm walking by houses and sometimes their address is a team number , I get happy! ^^;;

When I was on vacation I saw a house number that was 1511!

[LordTalps]

My trip meter on my car once read 1885. What made this more spectacular was that I only read the bugger every couple trips.

[anna~marie]

I guess this is what I get for watching it with teammates...
but a friend of mine pointed out that the clock in the Exorcism of Emily Rose reads "11:14"

[Jeremiah Johnson]

Today at church (Lutheran) the number under the 10th Day After Pentacost were 441, 8, 217, and 368 or 468. I can't remember. But anyways, there was Thunderchickens and Paly Robotics. I just thought that was kind of cool. I think there might be a 441.

On a side note: I don't know what those numbers mean. If anyone can explain please PM me. Today was only the 4th time I've been to a Lutheran church.

[roboticsguy1988]

Well on the way back from Gen Con team 1501 went through Kokomo to drop off the 45 bot and some of there stuff with a couple 45 students. After doing that we stopped at the Arby's there and when leaving the arby's we noticed one of the mailboxes near by said "1501"

Jeesh to see something like that in 45's own town....

[Masterfork]

this one is awsome a bottle of bawls down here cost 2.33 with tax and that is everwhere i have been so far and have seen em. i think its awsome

[Athleticgirl389]

When we were going to the Jersey Shore, we passed many mile markers. I had a rather enjoyable yelling out team names that corresponded with the numbers on the way down. It took until we got to mile 102 that my mom actually figured out what I was doing lol.

[Mike Starke]

In gym glass today, I got 67 laps on the pacer test... ON PURPOSE.

Yeah, I even bring FIRST into gym class.

HAHA. Good job little brother. You beat me.

[roboticsguy1988]

Well yesterday i was checking out a customer and the change due back was $5.35.

Which was the old team iused to be on before 1501

[deshirider430]

My favorite time of the day is 6:12 am/pm, and it is pretty funny reading some books and seeing the page is 612. Also on my Ipod listening to the song "6 of 12" is always nice.

[taylort]

I've yet to start noticing 1293 in random places (but I'm already addicted...so that shall soon follow) but it has become a habit to put 1293 as my guess whenever I don't know the answer to a question. I did it on a few math tests (don't usually have a problem...but I didn't need the extra credit so I just put 1293 as my answer) and on a history test when I wasn't sure of a number.

and i got it right.

[Jimmy Cao]

There's a gas station near my house that sells cigarettes for $4.69/pack... i point that out to my friends who r in my car EVERY time we drive by =P

[Dylan Gramlich]

Well i figured i would post again....I was playing Madden 07 and my time of possesion at one point was 11:26 and the time on the clock was 3:40. Also the date of this past Sunday was 11/26/06, i found this quite amusing. Its like our teams birthday or something(not really but that would be funny)!!!! :D

[Jeremytice]

Haha the date thing is awsome Dylan. I would have never thought about November 26 as 1126. Ive been noticing our team number on lots of ps2 games. Also my brother was talking about buying something and he said it was 1126 and i thought that was amazing. How many times do you see that happen....

[GRaduns340]

I'll join Mike on the 67 pacer test. Even hurt, I couldn't let Mike beat me ;)

[lukevanoort]

The room across the hall from my AP Bio class is room 222, and there is a poster of a tiger on the wall next to the door.

I was on amazon.com looking at ipods and the price for the 8GB nano is $237.50

[Gabe]

Yesterday I was searching for square aluminum tubing and discovered the 6040 alloy.

[Krazykid]

842 every day in the morning and at night time wise........

[Eric Scheuing]

My friend and I always try to figure out which team has the same number as our damage at death in Super Smash Bros.

[GRaduns340]

So I walk into Tim Horton's yesterday, and the cash register is showing someone's change as 3.40 :)

[Dylan Gramlich]

My current math class (calculus, El Camino College course number Math 190) is held in room MCS 217.
even the number of the room is FIRST 190 Gompei and the Herd!

[Vexkingof716]

This is going to be an odd one but when I'm working out with the cows on my farm theres a cow numbered 173. There are a few other cows with team numbers. unfortunately we aren't up to 716 yet but i hope eventually we do. :D

[Jeremytice]

I just saw my team number on the clock last night before I went to bed....11:26!

[!DOM!]

Every time i seem to randomly look at a clock in the evening, guess what? Its 5:27. lol ^_^

[trilogism]

Team 1701

Registry number of Starship Entreprise
Year that the City of Detroit was founded, which is where our school is located
My father's office number

[freestylemotox]

It was pretty funny this yean the school issued room 302 as our metting room for robotics.

[rabbitgirl]

Can anyone say "James Bond" and not think of 007?

Or for all you seniors out there....2007?

Lucky number 7...

Any other that I might've forgotten?

[Caio]

our machinist's address is 1510 (so on)

[LindsayKnowlton]

6 days until 226 day! (I celebrated last year, too! :))

And at least once there was gas that was $2.26...

Most of the time, I get made fun of whenever I get all excited and shout, "OMG! 226!" but I just can't help it. :p

[Dantvman27]

at our bake sales, when we sell all our things 2-4-1

[cmirags]

hah
My team number is 1126 (sparx) and we made up this cheer....
WHAT TIME IS IT??? ( and we try and say it whenever the time is actually 11:26) and the team responds back 1126 TIME!

we made up a cheer and going to do it at Regionals and championship!!!

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE THIS YEAR!!!! :D

[thewayiam919]

Our team went to Denny's for dinner one night. We were looking at the menu when we realized that they had 4 or 5 items on the menu that were priced at "5.99". We had a good kick out of makign the waitress realize that what we ordered corresponded with the number on all of our t-shirts! :-D

Oh yea, one more thing with "599" in it.
Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano (http://www.modelfoxbrianza.it/599GTB/fe1.jpg)

[Brad Voracek]

399. Imagine how many times that shows up... $3.99 is an easy price to find.

I've seen it on a couple license plates though, so cool... Can't remember too many others besides the countless receipts.

[LindsayKnowlton]

This is how much of a dork I am... 2/26 at 2:26pm (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v600/linsy/226screenshot.gif)

Oh yes, and happy 226 day everyone!!! :D :D :D :D :D

[LordTalps]

Dr. Pepper -- Established 1885 :D

[AdamHeard]

Today on the way to a team meeting I bought a Monster, some mints and Gas.

I emptied my wallet (and coin tray in my car) and put all the extra into the gas.

The total for the Monster and mints was $2.94 and the amount left for Gas was $3.30 (another southbay team).

That was weird....

[MaxS]

This is rather freaky. If you take the number of the Beast (666), mod it by 512, and multiply it by 10 you get 1540. This does not seem like a good omen...

[Ahnxlazyman]

I always seem to Look down every 1:16 into a song, It's like an impulse I'm not actually trying

[Graham Donaldson]

Doing research on Robert Boyle (one of the gas laws: volume is inversely proportional to pressure), I found this:

An account of the work he did with this instrument was published in 1660 under the title New Experiments Physico-Mechanical. Among the critics of the views put forward in this book was a Jesuit, Franciscus Linus (1595–1675), and it was while answering his objections that Boyle enunciated the law that the volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure, which among English-speaking peoples is usually called after his name, though on the continent of Europe it is attributed to Edme Mariotte, who did not publish it till 1676.

I put in the rather long quote for context. If you want to read about Robert Boyle (trust me, it's not very interesting), you can find it here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Boyle).

[115inventorsam]

It's amazing how often it happens, the team number gets stuck into your mind.:eek:
During this build season, MLK Jr. Day was 1/15, if I remember correctly, and then it was called MVRT day to try to get members to show up on that day.:D
And then, the final night of build, it was 1:15 AM, and we were like, "It's MVRT time!":p

[Tri_Lam]

this was either the thursday or friday before shipping. i Looked @ my myspace after our tinkerings for the san diego scrimmage & my profile views were surprisingly my team #. 1372 NO JOKE!!! pic canbseen@ www.myspace.com/astraythoughts pretty good omen if you ask me

[Duke_of_Hazard]

well, my friend has his watch set so it goes off at 2:33pm....and gas is in the range of 2.33 here....but the coolest is passing by exit 233 on our way to atlanta championships each year, and every year we conspire to stop and steal that sign....lol

....I wish we had a 2-33 day..../sigh

[cjelly]

Today while filming TheBlueAlliance, my camcorder's battery life was at 177 minutes.

[ScoutingNerd175]

The cheapest flight I could have had to Atlanta cost $571 (Paragon). (Any idea why I'm not going? ;) )

[bigboi146]

During lunch in the NYC regional my friend and I went to Subway to catch some lunch and our combined price including tax was $16.60. We were in shock! :)

[cziggy343]

the time of day is definetly the one that i love. not many things are $3.43.

[fluffy]

....I wish we had a 2-33 day

same here...except it would be 1-41...maybe febuary 10th?
oh well


sigh

agreed

[Otaku]

Most juiceboxes are 6.75fl oz.

Our team number is in that song "867-5309"

[Uberbots]

11:24 is our special time...

we see it and celebrate it... well, if we aren't knee deep in chain grease.

[cire]

My favorite radio channel to listen to is Banana 101.5, which just happens to be my team #1015 :p

[Otaku]

well, if we aren't knee deep in chain grease.

Gotta keep those knees lubricated somehow, and I guess that's one way to do it. ;)

[GMAdan]

the building that our machine shop is housed in was made in 1881

[Otaku]

the building that our machine shop is housed in is 1881

Wasn't the building also foudned (or built or whatever) in 1881? I think I read one of your teammates saying that here on CD.

[GMAdan]

yea i think so on the building it has a big 3 foot tall 1881 on one of the smoke stacks

[Athleticgirl389]

My favorite radio channel to listen to is Banana 101.5, which just happens to be my team #1015 :p

Q102 :cool:


Let's just put it this way... every time I see a 102 somewhere, I get the oddest looks from people... and then they just walk away and shake their head. My favorite was going to dinner with team members, we all gave money for dinner, and the cash total was $102 and we had no idea it was that til I counted lol.

[crafty]

I saw this in Tennesee the other day.

[Mister_Juggles]

I get off the bus after school at about 4:15ish on days when I'm not staying after for robotics... And for some reason, I always look to see what time it is *for the first time that afternoon* at 4:22.

Once, when the electricity had gone out when I was not at home, so it was the middle of the evening when I went upstairs to the alarm clock that had lost power exactly 4 hours and 22 minutes previous.

Sometimes clocks are creepy. :eek:

[Otaku]

I just found out...

The Bently Arnage T has a 6.75 litre V8 for it's engine.

[Athleticgirl389]

The Empire State Building has 102 floors =]

[IndySam]

Our team sponsor, MR D, took his family up to Canada for a spring break trip this week. Here is the hotel room number they got at Niagara Falls.

[tjcasser]

You know that it's bad when you've had a car for a year before you look down and suddenly realize that your team number is the first three digits of your license plate and you've never noticed it before...

[BandChick]

My best friend's Six Flags employee Parking Sticker:

[Robo_Cat_379]

There is a cop car in my city that has our team number on it (379)

[indieFan]

Today at Bob's Big Boy, our check number was 1070. Then, just outside in the parking lot, the first car I saw had number 599 as part of the license plate.

Both of these numbers are the same as the teams I've worked with.

:) this was a block away from our hotel when we went down to champs last year.

[Taraxacum]

When I drive down my road Monday mornings I always see a green trash can spray painted with 973 in bright green. :cool:

[Qbranch]

We (1024) cheered when the clock said 10:24 at the braves game on friday night... anybody hear that? :yikes:

-q

[MGoelz]

In my Spanish classroom, my teacher had a board that she puts imporant dates and other info on.
We have block scheduling and the day I have her on, she has prep first block so her board says:
B (Blue day) 2,3,4:
I thought it was so cool; but I just noticed it for the first time today.:)

[Viper37]

I see team numbers all the time. Sometimes I have to operate a Register at a Grocery store. Does that count? :) On three consecutive orders a few weeks ago the customers totals were "330, 968, 1622"

I was confused.

[Bomberofdoom]

Wow:eek: .....This post just made me realize.....:eek:
My parents told me I was born at 22:30. :eek:
Wow....and I'm not kidding!:eek:

[i_stainbrook]

After purchasing a slice of cheesecake, my change was $16.83. Unfortunately, I dropped it on the floor before I got to eat any. I thought it would be a bad sign the week before Championships, but the robot thankfully stayed intact.

[Cartwright]

Yeah I've noticed my number, team 234 everywhere too. We have these digital clocks all over the school and everytime it becomes 2:34, I think of robotics. I also notice our opponent numbers: like the other day I was taking an Algebra II test when I noticed that I got solutions of 5, 4, and 5. Making me think of our Long Island alliance partners!

[technoL]

We get to see 108 printed in huge letters at almost every stadium that we go to , for 108 is most likely always the title for Level 1, Section 8. At the Florida Regional, we always sit there...it's like our permanent spot. When we were in Las Vegas a few weeks ago, the bus that ran along the street across from our hotel was Route 108, and even more recently, on our flight back from Atlanta, the flight after us was flight 108, so it was displayed largely at baggage claim. Besides all of that, a lot of us cheer a little bit on the inside when its 1:08am.

[TheIrishOne]

Other team members and I always text each other during the day at school and plan meetings in the hallways at 1:26 pm... yea we're bad :D

Oh and check out this site: www.funnysign.com
Not only is it funny, but look at how many pictures of signs they have up. I went on this site like literally 10 minutes after reading some of this thread. To say the least I was mildy freaked out....

[RyanN]

We (1024) cheered when the clock said 10:24 at the braves game on friday night... anybody hear that? :yikes:

-q
So that was your team that my parents were complaining about at 10:30... :D They said that there was a lot of cheering at the Braves game. I am kidding about the 10:30 part, but I'm sure they heard you guys once or twice. :rolleyes:

In my accounting class I encounter many team numbers, including ours, but I guess it's nothing special when you are going through 100 random numbers during a day.

[Qbranch]

1024 cheered at the friday night braves game during nationals when the big clock on the lightboard read 10:24 .... :yikes:

-q

[Brice Brenneman]

I work at a UPS Store, and it seems everone who ships a package has an address or a phone number or a zip code with 234 in it and everytime I can't help but smiling

[K. Sehgal]

Our team name is 1694:cool: during my World History Honours:eek: class 1694 was year of the death of Queen Mary II of England:ahh: a coincedence:D

[Dantvman27]

for some reason i keep ariving home from school at 2:41

[joshsmithers]

I get out of school at 3:45. (significant to me because I admired their robot back in '05)

[Bree Tonte]

wow..i see 234 EVERYWHERE....


1. I too, have seen the number for gas prices
2. the time of day when I get home from school
3. The price of some beverage at Kroger the other day...(random price I know!)
4. Exit signs on the interstate
5. I know i've had more..I just cant remember...:(

[raymaniac]

When my mom was adding up how much money she thought I would need for Atlanta the total came to $116

[zander_108]

At the las vegas regional, people from my team kept seeing a bus go by on the road in between the hotel and the arena, that was route number 108.:cool:

[JaneYoung]

We have a neat row of shops along South Congress here in Austin that have brought back the lost art of window dressing - turning their window displays into clever artistic statements. There is a shop almost at the bottom of the hill, at the end of row that is called Pink with 3 large pink bubbles as part of the lit sign.

I came back from Atlanta on Sunday, thinking about how cool Pink had been the whole weekend - how well the team conducted themselves on and off the field and I remembered their competition at UCF earlier in the season as well. On Monday morning as I passed by the Pink shop, they still had the sign lit up with the pink bubbles glowing and I couldn't help but smile and think Pink.

It isn't a number but it's close.

[SgtMillhouse648]

I was driving home from school the other day and realized the ramp of my home town of Blue Grass IA is ramp #107. Great Job this year team ROBOTICS.

[Storcky]

When I was looking at the FIRST Robotics Behind the Design book, I noticed that we were on page 175, YAY BUZZ (one of our winning alliance partners).

For a while, I had my watch set to show military time and set the watch alarm to go off at 16:29 :)

Edit: When I just spell checked my English paper I had 222 words!

Depends on where you put the decimal, doesn't it? I wouldn't mind paying $1.188

The following is a MAJOR SPOILER FOR THE MOVIE HOT FUZZ. It involves the team # 384 (my old team.) Highlight the text to read it.

In the cult scene with the NWA, the chief inspector comes up to Angel to tell him about the cult, and you can see clearly on his collar his number. It's 384. Should be noted that Angel's is 777.

Our school has block scheduling with Blue and Silver days. There are four lunch periods within 3rd block, and I have 1st lunch on blue days. I realized that lunch ends at 11:14!!!!! It's supposed to be 11:16, but it isn't; for the past two weeks or so I stare at the clock, and it has been 11:14.

I recently found out that it takes 1038 licks to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie roll pop :D

I was really bored, had a lot of spare time, and there were some tootsie roll pops around. So, remembering those commercials from a couple years back, I set off to find out how many licks it takes to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie roll pop...an hour or so later, I announced this to everyone in ther room, and most of them probably thought I was crazy.

That's one life goal accomplished

[Bum Liaison Jr.]

Aside from the song by bowling for soup, I can't think of any for my team... :(

Meh, it's already over $4 a gallon for the cheapest here. But on Saturday I was at this pizza place in San Jose and spazzed when I noticed the place number was 1072. Go Harker! And I also twitched when in Stat class we were told to turn to page 766. I looked up 766 in our Bio book, too. And a friend of mine and I picked out 766, 701, 341 and plenty of other team numbers in another friend's pi shirt. This is what we do during breaks in the school day... :rolleyes:

[eshteyn]

I was in high school when gas was this cheep!!!

In fact, where do you live to get $2.17 per gallon? It's over $3 here in Oregon.

We are paying 3.80 for a gallon of regular

[Vince lau]

so i got 45 dollars in gas today and only got 33 litres

[11Mort11]

unfortunatly gas isnt 11 cents

[galewind]

today I was working on teaching students how to solve right triangles using both the Pythagorean Theorem and trig. I used a Pyth. Triple that just happened to be 16, 30, X. When students found the value of X^2 to be 1156, I fondly remembered working with this Brazilian team our rookie year at the NJ regional at the RAC back in 2003. Two consecutive perfect squares working together perfectly. (33^2 = 1089, 34^2 = 1156). I still have my 1156 team shirt that I pulled out last week!

[BT987]

a car on my block has the number 987 for his licsence plate i thought that was cool

[BT987]

Sad, sad, sad day when I pay MOE for gas

funny stuff i ate at this place in the airport in atlanta called moe's grill haha

[usbcd36]

Although it's not exactly "everyday life", the U.S. constitution was written in 1787. I have suggested on many occasions that we make reference to this in our team name. My teammates were not amused, however.

[Rysonue]

I have a few. (probably because I look so hard)
Well for one we tend to state that it is 9:10. Which is also the time we normally leave during build season.

My locker number at school is 330

and sometime over the summer in 07 we were returning bottles and as a joke I hit print recepit at $9.10 then continued to put my bottles in and ran out when it was at $3.30.

And for the RPGer's out there. I was playing Final Fantasy III and at one point got 111 dmg and killed the enemy, got 910 dmg and killed the enemy, and got 1114 dmg and killed the enemy. (at various parts of the game of course)

[Protronie]

For those that haven't noticed I'm a fan of 1024 Kil a Bytes...
What a shock it was when I noticed my company truck assigned to me was #1024 :eek:


-p :cool:

[Blue_Mist]

And of course, I was happily excited (my friends less excited) to find that for STAR testing, 2nd period ended at 11:14, 5th began at 1:14 (Eagle Strike) and 6th ended at 2:33. And of course, I now refer to times as Wildhats (1:00), Eagle Strike (1:14), MVRT (1:15), Epsilon Delta (1:16), Robowranglers (1:48), Thunderchickens (2:17), Pink (2:33), Beachbots (3:30), Athenian (8:52), Kil-A-Bytes (10:24), Simbotics (11:14) and so forth. I've left out all the rest not because I don't love you all, but because I do need to finish the homework that I'm supposed to be doing instead of reading and posting on Chief Delphi. I love you, Chief Delphi! And everyone here! And thus goes my obsession with FIRST. :)

[Storcky]

Sad, sad, sad day when I pay MOE for gas

http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd226/kyle365/Bryces/random/IMG_2645.jpg

I hope it never gets up to $16.29!!!:ahh:

[T3_1565]

I hope it never gets up to $16.29!!!:ahh:

I'm sad that it is wayy past Simbotics for gas now in Canada... :(

[BT987]

i have another no lie i took a nap after school today and woke up 2:33 then fell back asleep and woke up at 2:54 then fell asleep and woke up at....3:30 im not even lieing it was really weird

[Jacob Paikoff]

We see our team number everywhere, especially on the weather, its is normally the high every weekend between the beg of march and mid april.
Another funny one is during pre-season our lead programmer was teaching labview to the freshmen and he made a program to find the lcd of his cell phone number and it was 79.

[Alex Dinsmoor]

Right before Atlanta when we were eating lunch as a team our lead driver got receipt number 201, and the day before his meal cost $2.01!!!

Also our record was 11-14 right before Atlanta also...

[JM987]

:eek: $93 gas! Oh god! :rolleyes: ;)

hopefully .93 cents haha!

[Arthur S]

ha i never really noticed my number, 4, anywhere until i went to atlanta for the championships. I noticed it in that underground passage thing from the pits to the field, it said speed limit 4.

[Scott Carpman]

Man, I notice your number so many times each day...the 4 train Jerome Avenue IRT shops are next to the school. I see a 4 everytime I board the evening bus home.

[lingomaniac88]

I can't WAIT for gas prices to drop to our team's number!! :)

Ninety-three cents for a gallon of gas? That's not gonna happen anytime soon. Although $0.93 for a liter of gas (about $3.52 per gallon) is more realistic (although still cheaper than current gas prices).

Back on topic:
I have seen a license plate that said 1554. I always keep my eye out for those. Boy, I am really addicted to FIRST... :p

[JM987]

on t-shirts in aeropostale haha

[waialua359]

I hope it never gets up to $16.29!!!:ahh:

this must be a recent photo. When we were in Atlanta, it was 359 at all the gas stations we saw! I should have taken photos as that will never happen again.:mad:
Attending the VCU regional had gas at 3.15/gallon and that was just in early March! Wonder what it is now there.

We were sitting next to the Hokies, Team 401 at Einstein, who were our alliance partners at VCU. One of their students showed me their watch at 4:01pm. My watch was slower and showed 3:59pm! hehe......

[thatmorman]

the house address of one of our mentors at the local community college is 1510 as well as the locker number that is across the hall from the school shop.

[DarkFlame145]

I get happy when i look at the clock and it's 1:45 =P, or when i buy something and it comes out to 1.45........ yayaya for team pride.

[Cow Bell Solo]

I have seen our team number 2207 on a mailbox on my way to school.

And during the MN Regional I saw a license plate with 093 on it and thought of Team 93.

[millerm277]

Not and "everyday place", but there were 41 regionals this year I believe...

[Katie_UPS]

I'm sure its been said before, but almost everyday I see 11:14, and my sister's cell phone number starts with 217

I don't know that many teams yet, being it my rookie year, but what I do know I notice.

[sgreco]

My team (2079) was driving back home to Massachusetts from the Pittsburgh Regional. We only made one stop for gas. We were driving down the highway and decided to stop for gas, the gas station we pulled into was number 2079.

I've become accustomed to seeing other teams numbers all over the place but I rarely see my teams number, I just thought it was weird that of all the places we stopped it would be the place with my team's number.

[popnbrown]

OMG...I was looking at these e-mails that we printed out for sponsors and the captain of our fundraising sub-team's phone number's last four digits are 1676...and so I quickly posted here.

Also whoever is team 908, I see your number like more than 20 times a day :) (For those who don't know 908 is an NJ area code)

[Qbranch]

Last night, I watched the Local on the 8's on the weather channel at RoboDevils pm, and just by coincidence turned it off after a story ended at Kil-A-Bytes pm.

Crazy, considering we borrowed their robot controller at the Boilermaker regional... have to remember to give that back.

Thanks PIKE ROBO DEVILS! :D

-q

[MayaPapaya27]

I notice it all the time. A few that I can remeber are 27 Dresses
and the movie Wall-E (or however its spelled) about that little robot comes out June 27th

[Dancin103]

Gas is currently 3.65 where I live... Go MOE!

And the answer to one of my physics test problems was 330, I was like oh hey, the beach bots.
Cass

[Qbranch]

When taking the Calculs AB AP test today, we started the free response section at 10:24am.

Needless to say, I have a good feeling about the test. :D

-q

[Andrew141WOBOT]

Haha Thats funny because I saw the number 141 EVERYWHERE before nationals! My plane flew in at 1:41, three days in a row I looked at the clock and it was 1:41, I was watching House and he said "I will give you this for, the one dollar and forty one cents in your pocket", I look at my car's odometer, and it had 141 miles on it. I saw bus #141 more than I normally, and on the way to the Georgia Dome I saw 4 signs everyday for Exit 141. I thought I was alone on that!

[Qbranch]

I'm working on a presentation over how our motion control system works this year... and ran accross a team number in a very interesting place...

There were THRUST teams involved in the FRC competition this year! :yikes:

We love you 1501! :D

-q

[roboticWanderor]

hey look! Post number 418!!
now there is a number in an everyday place!

[danshaffer]

At 5:28, the time is actually 4:88. (Always my answer to questions like "what time is it?")
My locker number at school is 176, awesome alliance partners in Atlanta
Also, one-digit numbers tend to show up a fair amount :D

[115inventorsam]

Too many times when I'm doing my homework have I looked up at the clock to see that it's Funky Monkeys(846) pm. It happens so many times that I resort to smacking my head every time that happens.
Also, recently in my math class, Danvillans(1458) kept showing up as the answer for some wierd reason, made me pinch myself to make sure I wasn't going crazy.

Oh, and in a skit, I purposely inserted PALY(8), Raider Robotix(25), and MVRT(115) as the numbers for a math problem in the script.(8x + 25 = 115) Still don't know what I was thinking at that point.

[Suspect_Deezy]

my sister doesn't know anything about robotics or our team.

she played the lotter and i just happened to look at the ticket,.................


440


haha she didn't win though too bad:p

[Josh Fox]

Fairly recently, it occured to me that my locker combination at school is 27-47-33

My Gobal Isues class is in room Cyber Blue, and my friends always walk into room Pink for Modern US History

[tim_reiher]

I recently saw a car with CT plates reading either <228 FVC> or <FVC 228>. One of the two. Either way, I thought this was pretty cool.

[Katie_UPS]

So I was getting some ice cream at summerfest, and I splurged and got triple scoop.

I gave them a twenty and my change was, in large numbers on the register, 16.75


The was the most exciting thing that day. I told my friends (on the robotics team) and we went back and got more ice cream.
:D

This one is in the Dunkin' Donuts Center in Providence, RI. I took it at my brothers graduation.

I just finished my first semester schedule. Engineering class? In Mechanical Engineering room 339 :D

[R2D2DOC]

Ought to consider military time as a format.
However if a team's last two digits are above 59, you have a problem.

UNLESS, you use modulo math.

Darn, hexadecimal won't work. . . or should it ?

Think outside the box, errr, numbering system. . . .

[MrForbes]

We notice when it says 5:26 on the clock....building our robots on Ft Huachuca probably contributes to this.

Yeah I see like signs like that all the time in stadiums :D

Yay for low team numbers, I get to see it on the clock a lot as well :rolleyes:

[temujin]

I guess since we consider our 'bots as pets, we can't bring them here. But maybe anyone else could? -found at a rest stop on I-95 just before the NSA exit - what do they know that we don't about ED?

Well theres this...

And the address number of the warehouse in SAW V is 1293 too ahahah

[TeAm270RoCkS]

I can't WAIT for gas prices to drop to our team's number!! :)

Oooh, if that happens, fun times lol...

270: I see it in math a lot, I see it when I see how many electoral votes the candidates need and I see it when I go to my robotics room lol...

270: the number of the presidential candidates :yikes:

Id love for gas to get down to the price of my old team ($.27/gal for gas anyone?)

[ATannahill]

id take $.79, also on the receipt does upchg mean upchuck?

[Thermal]

id take $.79, also on the receipt does upchg mean upchuck?

.1676 u is the mass defect of neon...yeah i'm writing this in AP Physics.

[llama]

i wish i had a picture of this but in our rookie year (2007) we went to Ohio as our second regional and we just so happened to end up in a hotel with the number 2077 above one of its entrances. I belive that at one time Cleaveland had a numbering system for its buildings that made it easier for the fire department to find buildings and this was a reminant from that system.

[guakam0li1089]

Brandon Jacobs (GO GIANTS) ran for 1089 yards in the regular season

[Church]

The number 11 tends to come up in lots of places, so I don't think about it much. However, the fabric store where I work sells some fabric with black and yellow print and I want to buy some every time I see it!

[Nightfall831]

I work at Food Lion as a cashier and i see $8.88 all the time. One day i saw it three times. I would've taken a picture if it didn't look so weird to the customers. :)

[Brandon_L]

Going down the highway a few days ago I saw a sign that said something about "team 85" and I didn't get to read much about it as it went by to fast but I'm still wondering if it was FIRST related....

[Delia]

All i remember from western civ is that Thomas Newcomen perfected the steam engine in 1712 :D

[Phreadumb]

Nice to know that you other teams are finding your numbers in all sorts of places, but 2188 appears nowhere.

We were on our way to the michigan state championship and saw a building that said "open 247" without a space ;)

Also, i love it when i thread i make hits 247 views....

but as our number implies, its everywhere. i see it 24/7 ;)

[pastorellipedro]

Going to Atlanta this year, many team members noticed that gas prices were $2.17 almost everywhere on the way :)

[AlexD744]

Okay well I see 179 in food prices all the time.

[gorrilla]

I got 15.57 gallons of gas the other day......

[BrendanB]

I remember getting gas that was $1.519 a gallon.

[gorrilla]

I remember getting gas that was $1.519 a gallon.

my total was $30.79 i think :rolleyes:

[Blue_Mist]

I flew home from Atlanta, bought a slice of pizza. I nearly flipped out and frightened the cashier when the total came to $2.17.

I have seen $2.17, $2.45, $2.47, $2.53, $2.54, $2.56 and once $3.30(!) as gas prices.

My new college ID number includes 1072 (Harker Robotics).

I take Latin, and our passages have line numbers. I have noted Teams 1, 4, 8, 11, 16, 20, 25, 33, 45, 47, 48, 60, 67, 69, 71, 75, 79, 85, 100, 111, 114, 115, 116, 121, 141, 148, 245, 247, 253, 254, 256, 330, 341, 365, 399, 499, 538, 604, 668 and 692. There are over 2000 lines in the Aeneid, but each book (chapter) restarts its line count.

Every time I look at my (24-hour) clock and it says 0:01, 0:04, 0:08, 0:11, 0:16, 0:20, 0:25, 0:33, 1:00, 1:11, 1:14, 1:15, 1:16, 1:21, 1:41, 2:45, 2:47, 2:53, 2:54, 2:56, 3:30, 3:41, 6:04, 7:01, 7:16, 8:41, 8:42, 8:46, 8:52, 9:10, 10:24, 11:14, 15:01, 15:03, 15:19, 17:17, 17:26 or 19:02, I get a little distracted. I have probably missed a few.

A couple of days later, I checked one of my email folders, and there were exactly 766 (!) emails in it.

On Wednesday, I took the AB Calculus exam. Found 980 in one of the numbers...

Today, I was at our school's badminton meet (I play) and one of the scores was 15:03. Another score was 15:01.

There are currently KRUNCH days until IRI.

Hm. I'm insane, aren't I? :o

Finally, someone who thinks like me. I see a number, and I see a team. Last year before IRI, I was buying a book, and they had some weird discount %. The book originally would cost WITH shipping $15.19 and with the discount, it was $11.14. Who knew we would play each other at IRI.

If I listed out all the numbers I saw with team names. I would talk your ear off:p

you have 177 posts, BOBCATS baby LOL

[Blue_Mist]

And you have Bionic Bulldogs posts! They are from Arizona, and were in Curie Division with us. :D

Oh. Now I have 178 posts. TBA tells me they are the 2nd Law Enforcers, from Connecticut. :)

[lady lighting]

The gas now is $2.28 and i always freak out when i see a team number and my un-educated (people not in FIRST) keep asking whats t he big deal and im like its a robotics thing!

[delsaner]

~My robotics friend worked as a cashier, and she once had a total order of $16.76.

~I was playing Pocket Tanks, on my iTouch, for a non-robotics trip to Massachusetts, and I got 111 points for my shot.

~I always seem to look at the clock when its 11:14

I head to robotics at around 4:51
our main .htaccess file for our website is 451b (dont ask how!)
And the some of the kids at our school are reading Fahrenheit 451

[BWaksman]

During nationals there were several snack foods in the hotel store that, with a five dollar bill, returned $1.77 in change. Also, at the cafe where my team ate breakfast someone on our team got order number 177 on two consecutive days (once it was me).

[Sayrah]

I recently took a business trip to Texas -- a place I rarely go. As I got up the first morning and put the address in my GPS, imagine my surprise as I saw 1902! A couple of days later as I got ready to check in for my return flight I noticed the flight number --1592! Guess what two teams shared a bus to Atlanta this year? You got it....1592 & 1902.

[BrendanB]

And you have Bionic Bulldogs posts! They are from Arizona, and were in Curie Division with us. :D

Oh. Now I have 178 posts. TBA tells me they are the 2nd Law Enforcers, from Connecticut. :)

i thought of the bulldogs,( and you had to look up 178 on tba:p ) but i wanted to go to bed as i am taking a gov. class which is 2:00 hours away from my house. It runs the 11-14 my bill #'s are 40, 195, and 1519

I was on train car 67 down and 467 up hot and duct tape.

And so many more which i don't feel like typing out. Now i am at 61 posts shifters. :cool:

That's really weird. I have been seeing random numbers everywhere, and I always associate them with FRC teams.

I was driving on the highway about two weeks ago, and I saw a sign for exit 217, and I was like "Thunder Chickens!" And my sister kind of just stared at me.

[pastorellipedro]

when i tuned into the wings game tonight, the clock said 15:38 left, and I was like "holy cows!!!". nobody found that interesting....

I was driving down the Long Island Expressway the other day and saw Interstate-67 and County Road-111 right next to each other. If I can get a picture sometime I'll post it. :PA picture would be very interesting, since there is no Interstate 67, and if there were one, it wouldn't be on Long Island.

[Magnechu]

Well, some kind of highway haha

I realized my home thermostat settings are
HuskieBrigade during the day (65)
HOT during the evening (67)

and the AC is set to turn on when it reaches the RoboRaiders (75)

(apologies to my Canadian friends... I was told there'd be no math involved)

((we're slowly moving to metric... once inch at a time))

I'm not sure if it counts as "everyday", but it is a unit of measure: a smoot (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoot) is 67 inches.

[Dillon Carey]

It seems every time i look at a clock it is either 2:17 or 11:14, oddly enough i don't see it say 16:25 very often:rolleyes:.

[Karibou]

It seems every time i look at a clock it is either 2:17 or 11:14, oddly enough i don't see it say 16:25 very often:rolleyes:.
There's always 24-hour time! 16:25 would be 4:25pm.

I wish a clock would read 11:89...I'll have to build a clock that uses the 90-minute hour.

I always check my receipts for team numbers. I see 67 quite a bit.

And finally, it always makes my day to see gas prices at 1.189 (though seeing gas prices that low nowadays is a sure sign of the apocalypse!)

[Mr. Pockets]

Don't know if this counts or was posted already
but our robot this year weighed 118.9 lbs. ^_^

[idk]

Me and one of my teammates were in history class and I looked at my phone to check the time and it was 1:34. I gave the teammate my phone and said look at the time! He grabbed the phone, it slipped on his desk and fell on the floor really loudly. The teacher gave us a nasty look and went back to talking. lol.

Also, in chemistry class we were graphing and for the x-axis, our teacher used the numbers 1, 3, and 4. I was like Go Robotics! Everyone just stared at me like I was crazy. Some people just dont get it. *sigh*

[Dargel1625]

In an NCAA basketball game I was watching a couple years back they had a foul committed and free throws shot while the time on the clock was 16:25.. I couldn't help but take a picture of it.

Currently posting on page 33 of this thread.

Page 67 of my bio notebook has the color red for it's color code
Page 217 has a lime green color code.

Today is 6/7.

I feel like such a dork for constantly noticing team numbers...

[Billfred]

When I was signing the paperwork for my 2009 Pontiac Vibe--a General Motors product--I noticed that the VIN starts 5Y2SP67099Z....

Now, that could mean that it's a four-door vehicle with front, side, and side curtain airbags (http://www.goodwrench.com/gmgoodwrenchjsp/gmspo/Vin/2009+VIN+Card.pdf)...but I think we know what GM was going for when they assigned the digits. ;)

[carolynn4848]

After the off-season competition Mayhem in Merrimack, the team went out to eat. My friend's change came out to be $1.55. She saw this and shouted "Nutty!"
I love robotics.

You should see when my one of my friends and I play Smash. It's just calling out team numbers left and right. Usually, we won't hit someone if they get 177%, but they have to kill themselves after they get 2.

Ok. That last part was a lie.

pretty much all of our school books have page 279 highlighted [only the number] in light blue. I've taken to highligting some other ones as well. most recently i underlined the word cat 7 times on page 451 of a science book, but it never said cat attack or anything along those lines =(

I'm working on a trebuchet and was searching for 5/8 bronze bushings on McMaster, and found them to cost $2.17 a piece.

taking my math final a week ago, half way through an equation I found it to equal 1716!! I even took a picture of it :D

When dealing with funning a stand for people to vote for thier favorite farmers market, and you notice the first place market has 2207 votes.

My learners permit has 2377 in it. Noticed it when i was getting it, the guy wrote a long serial number down and i noticed my team number in it, sure enough when they gave me the card, it said 2377 in the serial number.

you go to church the day after IRI and all the verse numbers look like team numbers

Matt. 2:22
John 6:8

I realized that I when I was on page 910 of the book I was reading (Yay Foley Freeze ^_-)

When:
-Making your first D&D character (at least in a few years) you are deciding on an age and you bounce the idea off your friend about having a 1189 year old gnome. I ended up deciding that that might be a bit much so I ended up making him 67 years old instead :D (disclaimer: the reference was to the team not their name. Sorry, but I realized afterwords that it might be taken in other ways.)
-When you notice when playing a game that your team had 217 points ^_-

I was sorting through credit card receipts and came across one with a total of $27.53. I know receipts are pretty normal, but this was the first time I had seen my own team number anywhere unordinary, so I was excited!

Also I find myself looking for team numbers driving home from a competition. I'll start seeing them on mailboxes and road signs without even trying. That's what robotics can do to a person!! :D

In Busch Gardens Williamsburg, near the first Immelman on the Griffon, one of the buildings has some writing on it (in French) that ends in 1793.
