about 20min later the banner had to be taken down by some other people on my team.
that is something i wont forget for along time

Yea I got ticked that we weren't allowed to go to the top level.. so I found this one lady and started chatting her up with hopes that she'd let me go up for a minute to videotape..
She told me that the reason we couldn't go up was because FIRST hadn't rented the upper levels.. So I asked her how much it would cost for me to rent the top level for 30 seconds and pulled out my wallet (wink wink).. She laughed but wouldn't let me go up..
