OK, guys, listen up. We all look alike, so I'll just blend in as one of you, and you all can be the head ref in rotating matches.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

Ref 1: "How will we know if a robot is shooting poof balls too fast?"
Head Ref: "Well, what else flies at 12 m/s?"
Other Refs: "A witch!" "Poof balls!" "A car!" "A rock!" "A duck!"

Head Ref: "A duck, very good. And what are ducks made out of?"
Other Refs: "A witch!" "Poof balls!" "Water?" "Rocks"
Ref 1: "Wood!"

Head Ref: "Very good. So if a robot is shooting poof balls faster than a duck then logically..."
Ref 1: "The poof ball will heat up"
Head Ref: "And therefore..."
Ref 1: "The robot will release its magic smoke"

Head Ref: "Very good!"

2nd ref from the left: Guys, this team knows we're planning to disable their robot for no reason :rolleyes:

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

Announcer: "I can't believe our luck. Here we see 6 FIRST Zebras standng out in the open. The FIRST Zebra is usually a loner and are known to be very skitish but will gather around the lead Zebra for support."
Head Ref: "What is that guy doing in the shadows talking to himself?"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

I don't think I need to tell you guys, but there are a few teams here from Massachusetts. Remember, if the Poof ball comes to rest purple side down, it may be under inflated.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

Head Ref: "Guys, we're falling behind here. The teams are scoring far more points than we are hitting them with penalties. "We need to step things up a notch!"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

We don't have enough zeal! We need to dazzle the crowd as a group!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

Middle Ref: (Inner Monologue) Ha-Ha-Ha, I am the only one wearing my safety glasses.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

"Those fans are on us like a pack of lions! If we all huddle together, maybe these stripes will confuse them."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

I was told there would be corn dogs. Anyone know where to get corn dogs?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

"I need to tell you something important. Don't look, but that team has freezy snacks. We need to make a plan to obtain those freezy snacks."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

Bad News. Don't look over there now, but the inspectors passed team Stark, the ones with the flying robot. Put your goggles on and be ready to dodge if it comes over the railing. Hey, didn't I say not to look?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

A team is in the question box, quick, act like you're busy!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

First ref: "I don't like the looks of that robot. You brought the explosives, right?"
Second ref: "I don't think that's safe..."
First ref: "Don't worry, I told the pit admin to announce that there are free corn dogs in the lobby."

The refs have the darndest conversations when no one is listening. :D

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

"Ok, you go destract the drive teams while I turn off the robots."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

Left: Okay guys, here's the deal. 254 is good. Too good. We need to have one of those "mistakes" to make sure that-
Second from left: Shhhhh they're right there!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

Don't worry guys they will never use poof balls again, on an unrelated note we are still scheduled to meet back up at this regional in 2012 right?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #566
 

Okay, when I give you the sign, you flip open the rule book and start scanning pages like you found something. That should give us a good five minutes to come up with something. If we need any longer I will call for a reinspection.
