I'd suggest that if your sitting next to a team like us (88), MOE (365), Rage (173), 195 (thats just a few, i know i left a couple hundred out), then a smart investment would be earplugs... ;)

I can't believe no one has mentioned MOE Stix! They may be outlawed, but they should always be on hand!

I remember in the older days that I was voted team trouble maker. So if you want to pack a prankster/havoc pack, this is what you'll need:


shaving cream
duct tape
sharpie
feather
ninja stars
mini dodge ball
superglue
noisemaker
waterballoons
frisby
pocket knife
magic cards
squirtgun
rubber band gun
rubber bands
dvd player
Complete Kevin Smith Films Collection
N64 w/ Goldeneye
Caffeine Pills(from staying up all night playing games and watching movies)

Yeah. . .
I had some fun with these items in my younger days, but I've grown up a little bit, so I dont bring dangerous, destructive, or sharp items anymore. Still need my Kevin Smith though. . .

I thought of something new that EVERY team should bring to competitions.

Canned compressed air for cleaning off the dust from your robot from sitting in a shipping crate for a few weeks.
This will be on my new list of things to bring to UTC this next weekend.
The poor robot got dirty.. That will explain those two mysterious extra pounds. lol

Though there is no real explanation for this, Team 138 has been taking pictures of everyone we see with Aviator sunglasses on. We have team pics with Dean Kamen and Woody Flowers with our Aves on. If many of you bring aves, we'll find a way to post pictures of you online!
