They attempted to do something along those lines.

We were walking in the upper level and a plane landed at my feet, I picked it up and chucked it over the edge. Just as I did this, someone on the event staff yelled at me to stop throwing planes. I specifically remember joking with some other teammates about how ineffective that would be, as there were about 2,000 other people throwing planes.

And on a seperate note: the truss system in place for the FTC fields got in the way of seeing the LED screen for Einstein. Our whole section had to go through every match wondering who was in the lead or how close the scores were, it really was not fun.
