i like this idea, i know this is a stretch but what are the chances of the traditional center piece of the field (or maybe moving) was a FIRST robot (the fifth bot) and scoring was to be done by placing or removing something from it. This might also explain the banana in Dave's picture and the "freshly picked for me" (or something like that) line in the Terry Hall song that Bill Moore gave the link to, maybe a banana shaped or noodle shaped has to be picked from it. the Green heights line would infer that this could be done in autonomous for extra points. this idea would also make sense of the Tangling with pasta line being how tangling sounds a lot like dangling and the tangle aspect might mean that the house bot is trying to protect the objects. bobl also mentioned that shovel's show appeared at the highwire gallery which also supports this hypothesis of mine.


idea #2
maybe 5 bots tangling with pasta means a flag football or tag type game, which would explain the possible Joe Montana reference.
