Back in the IFI days, I recall having to have a team uncrate their robot to get the loaner controller back. (Actually, that was the other fella working Spare Parts who enforced that one.)

Yep, they'd crated up with the loaner--as I recall, the argument used was something about somebody's card being billed for the controller vs taking half an hour to uncrate, remove the loaner, and recrate.



There were also a few times a student would try to get the loaner equipment without going to the IFI rep (and/or without a credit card or adult). That didn't go over too well--no broken kneecaps, though.
