Organize a paper airplane competition.

I recall seeing some fine gliders in 2014. I must admit it was fascinating. Having read the arguments, I will be instructing my team to leave all paper behind as we sit down for Einstein, but as other have said, If FIRST would make it clear that throwing airplanes is not acceptable, it would help a lot.

But the wait in 2014 was excruciating. So much waiting, and inaudible speeches, and more and more of the same ------- "music" we listened to all season long, and waiting and waiting, and the worst $5 pretzel mankind has ever created, and hours before we can get dinner...

I just didn't think of the paper airplanes as being the worst aspect of that evening.

So sanction it, make it official and safe. Put together simple rules: specific launching area (off to the side), target zone, wait your turn, launch maybe 5 at a time, end abruptly when ceremonies begin. We can applaud the good ones, laugh at the "bombers," it could be a blast.

And it would far fewer pieces of paper compared to the "mass garbage toss" we've been seeing.
