Yelling at us for being too early to queuing. Yelling at us for being too fast/too slow in moving on/off the practice field. Yelling at us for trying to stay in the pits during opening ceremonies. Yelling at us for charging our tanks in queuing. Yelling at us for standing or walking in the wrong place. Sometimes, I've got the impression that they're yelling at us just because they can.
Dare I speculate that the yelling might be lesser if the music volume was lower? (although the energy level of FRC events does have an allure that VRC events don't)
