Glen, I agree with you since we can pick up from the floor.

But it has me thinking, what about all of the teams that designed to pickup directly from the Feeder Slot? This strategy is considered viable according to the manual, as tubes are allowed to be fed through the feeder slot. That being said, shouldn't someone ensure that the game can be played according to the rules? What is the point of the slot if the tubes don't fit through it? I hope that someone is keeping a close eye on tube inflation at our events.
