I think you went too far. We will NOT be at the racetrack next to the Forum in LA between matches, we will be watching you to beat you.
The original list was "funny ones". This is not funny.

Re: Interesting team names
 

I want to hear about the Devil Duckies (1266), because I think our name (The Holy Hamsters) was inspired from being across from them in the pits at Atlanta last year. Our former names were no good. Although after reading all the posts here I think Double Doce would fit well.

I can't imagine Brophy not being the Dukes. I love hearing "DUUUUUUKES!" whenever they hit the field.

Re: Interesting team names
 

the holy hamsters got their name from the devil duckies from last year? lol how funny...

well i dont know the whole story, but from what i hear....:

our DaTA advisors werepassing around this site and lil devil duckie that they had found out about and they were sharing it with most of the admin. it was such a cute lil demonic thing! WHen it came time for picking the team name last year, we didnt want to be known as the Warhawks, (which is our school mascott) we wanted something more creative than that. so one of our team members piced up the lil devil duckie and said "well how about this?" and it's just stuck, lol

as for the adopt a devil duckie, that came around when a member of our team ate a fortune cookie with the fortune: "you will have great success with adoption"

i hope that helps ne one wanting to know, but if i find out im wrong about something, i'll edit this!!!
:D

I dunno about this... Wo-Bot?

The Wo stands for West Ottawa, our highschool but the newspapers like to call us the "wascilly wobot" and that kinda stuck after we won the WMR last year...

robbery thats it huh? man i thought 65 would be cooler then that. like um um um i don't know lol. but i like the pink team 233 and i also like 269 coony quest.

Re: Interesting team names
 

I'm not sure how our teacher thought up the name but I think our team's immediate acceptance of it was because it was the first name our team has come up with that sounded like a good FIRST name, and I credit the Devil Duckies for making the (odd adjective cute animal) formula successful. That, and it meant our team could wear ears. ;p

Re: Interesting team names
 

I am suprised no one has mentioned my team - the Who'sCTEKS.

People always ask me.. "How the heck do you pronounce your name?"

"Who'sCTEKS" is pronounced "HOO-SEE-TECHS". There have been variations in the spelling of the name over the years, such as "Who'sCTeks" and "Housytechs", but the phonetics of the name have remained the same. Our name is a play on words... or rather a combination of the words "Housatonic", the abbreviation for Connecticut - "CT", and "Technology". The name was modeled after that of our mentor team, the Aztechs, from Assabet High School. The nickname for our high school, Housatonic Valley Regional High School, is "Housy", so in an attempt to emulate the Aztechs (who had combined the words "Assabet" and "technology"), we made our name a combination of "Housy" and "technology". Later, the addition of the "CT" element of the name was added as an extra dimension of wordplay. From the alternate spelling "Who'sC", instead of "Housy", evolved our logo, the question mark - since the word "who" implies a question = question mark.

Team 395 - 2 Train Robotics

So named because the high school students on the team take the #2 subway from their high schools in the Bronx to the mechanical engineering lab at Columbia University. Along the way they transfer to the #1 train, hence our motto, "Next stop #1!"

Our robot last year was named The Spicy because of a team tradition involving the team going to the local Chinese restaurant and daring each other to eat hot peppers. This year instead of The Spicy II, we named the robot 2 Spicy (keeping the same 2 from 2 Train Robotics).

:D yeah but we still love you 555 and your big golden flag pole ball. Honestly and take no offence to this, but seeing as your 555, kinda close to 666, and between 444 I would call yourselves purgatory (or however it's spelled). You can be neutral about everything

Re: Interesting team names
 

Common guys you are forgeting one of the coolest team names, 624:

CRyptonite

CR is our high school's initials (Cinco Ranch High School)
and yptonite is... well.... it goes with the CR and makes everyone happy.
We even have our own theme song, which you can hear in the background on our famous "OMFG SO CLOSE!!" center ato mode cap.

Re: Interesting team names
 

If you noticed, the closest time Cryptonite ever got to capping was when Kryptonite was playing. Symbolic? Motivational? Random coincidence?

Team 467- Duct Tape Bandits

For the first few years my team's name was Alpha Colonials, the colonial is our schools mascot. Some of the team members would make duct tape clothes and when they wanted to change the name, duct tape came up. Thus the Duct Tape Bandits were born.

Wow! This thread is wicked old!

Non taken FizMan and you did get the number right. Congrats! And thank you very much for the compliment! Our SWAT is an acronym as you probably know...how it came to be I don't know although it was probably our vice principle Mrs. Byers or either of the team captains from our rookie year. It stands for...

St. Mildred's
Women
Advancing
Technology

From reading these post I would have to say the most interesting would be...

Kudos on the most original and hilarious stories!
