Lady on left- " Did we really need to camp out for 8 days to get in to the event?"
Lady on right- " Yes!!, we do want to be the first people to meet Billfred don't we?
Lady on left- " Billfred who?"

"It's official: the University of Michigan can't even give away tickets to their football games anymore."

Bravo.

My second place entry:

Somebody should tell these young ladies that the IRI is the Indiana Robotics Invitational, not in Iowa.

[npoe]Jane, where are your "Ringer"/"Keeper" shirts? [/npoe]

Jane to new parent:
Ok, so my rule of thumb is just to fade into the bleachers - Billfred will never even think about using you as a subject for his caption contests.
Trust me on this.

[npoe] In my lap is the beautiful yellow Mission Mayhem '07 tee shirt with the winning logo design that Koko Ed submitted. It's very cool. That was the tee shirt of the day - I just hadn't gotten that far into it yet. The "Ringer"/"Keeper" shirts were worn on the flights. :) [/npoe]

Jane: "I don't know. You think if we sit here long enough, a robotics competition might show up? Because I haven't been to one for like 2 weeks now, and I think I'm suffering withdrawl."

How to tell a roboholic: She shows up the night before every event, before the venue is open, just to get the good seats, and brings a friend.

Woman on right: You see, the field constuction workers get a 30 point bonus if they roll out the carpet in less than three pushes, and double their score for each ringer they are wearing around their waist the whole time.

Jane: "You kept telling me and telling me, "If you build it, they will come.""
Lady on left: "Yes I did."
Jane: "Well, they didn't come."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #166
 

Unknowingly, the two were in suched a fierce competition that they didn't even notice the competition end, and that everybody went home without them.

[not my real entry]
Jane: So, These two crazy girls, claiming to be BFFs, just ran over and screamed FIZZLE! at me. Does that make me a FIRST celebrity? I think it does.
[/not my real entry, sorry about doing that, jane]

[real entry]
Jane: So, then it was finals, and 108, 180, and 233 gave their time out so 1523 could keep fixing their robot to play in the last matches...then there was a Libby-Kamen-got-Duct-Taped-Delay...
Woman on left: JANE! I was HERE! I saw it happen! It's Monday already. If you want to recap the event to someone, go home and do it.
[/real entry]

..and yes, I really did get duct taped.

Jane (thinking to herself): If I can just keep her distracted by my deep conversation, I can reach over and get that Starbuck's coffee without her noticing. Umm, coffee, need coffee...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #166
 

[obviously not an entry]
We know. ;)

Jane
"I don't know about you but I'm not leaving. I'm going to sit here and wait for next year's game.............just tell my husband and kids I'll send a postcard if I get a chance."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #166
 

[npoe]Oh, so many things I could write![/npoe]

Long after the basketball game ended and the fans went home, Jane was
still bending the ear of the school administrator, extolling the virtues of FIRST vs. organized sports...
