Re: Tying back hair in the pits at competition

This is probably the best way to do it, as I'm assuming that most people with long hair who don't tie it back are only doing so because they forgot hair ties or forgot altogether about the issue of their hair in the midst of all the robot craziness!
I suspect you are referring to the tub with hair ties that was left in each team's pit by the hosting team 3525. I also thought this was a very nice touch and much appreciated.
