I would use a standard trash bag, of sufficient toughness. It's not illegal to use the robot bag, but it's a very, very bad idea.


One of the very first things that happens at your event is that the inspectors will go over your bag. If there is a hole in it, particularly one that looks deliberate or that happens to be big enough to work on the robot, you will be having a nice conversation with your inspector. If it's big enough, the Lead Robot Inspector will also be involved.
