Re: Hotel Fun
 

So Nationals are over what did you do in the Hotel. We had a conjoined room with some other guys on our team, so we just watched movies and talked about competition.

Re: Hotel Fun
 

Our team played 4 on 4 Halo 2 and played super smash brother mele.

Re: Hotel Fun
 

Hehehe...

My own team (334) was housed with... two or three other teams, I think. On the first night, Natalie and I did not sleep, ran around like maniacs, then went to the hotel room of one of the canadian teams and painted 'pwned by 334' on their president's face.

The third night we had pool fun and then all the boys fell asleep in the girls' room, and when they wake up, left one of their members in the room, which led to a wierd wake-up.

Same for the fourth night.

Brought an X-box, but there was some odd thing on the back of the TV's that prevented the plugging in of the cables. >_<

A pity there weren't more teams in our hotel.

Re: Hotel Fun

Re: Hotel Fun
 

During Nationals, me and a hand full of friends made a movie. We bought a bunch of cap guns and made a "poker" movie. Our team leaders didn't really like the idea of us jumping around in the team suburbans shooting at each other with cap guns :D but it was a ton of fun.

I think we gave one of the cleaning ladies a heart attack when 2 of us busted out of an elevator with cap guns at the ready trying to "catch" an undercover cop :yikes:

We tried to get the hotel to let us "rob" them, but one of our team leaders put a quick stop to that :rolleyes:

Thats what team 447 did to keep themselves entertained in the hotels!

Anyones else make movies while on FIRST trips?

Re: Hotel Fun
 

Late one night we took a Vacumn Cleaner from one of the cleaning Carts and well, put it in one of the glass elevators that look down on a cafe area over at the Hilton. Then we all sat down where we could see it and video taped people's reactions when they walked in on the elevator and saw a vacumn cleaner.

Some of them were great, the looks people gave us were just classic. One guy who when it opened looked really suprised and was like scared, so he jumped out of the elevator and pushed the button again, low and behold it opens up again, he still scared and in shock hops in the elevator and gets as far away from it as possible.

My Team... :( Team 1503 Niagara Falls..

Re: Hotel Fun
 

It's really sad to see how some people behave when they are in their hotel rooms.

Being an alumni, I myself have done some activities that seemed funny at the time but in retrospect are nothing to be proud of.

Last year at Annapolis my roommates and I were accused of having a "lamp fight" yes you read that right. I don't know how that rumor got started but when my advisor walked in the room to see it in pristine condition all worries were laid to rest.

I was always too busy talking with friends or planning for the competition to do anything remarkably stupid, but I did have fun. THe pool was great or I had my laptop and watched movies.

As for the curfew, my team always had a meeting around 11ish where we needed to be in the hotel. We didn't have to be in our room then, but we DID have to stay in the hotel. As long as the advisor and the hotel management didn't hear about it, then it was ok.

Re: Hotel Fun
