[379Robocat]

This isn't really a quote but a little prank I played on my team. We were at the philly regionals and going into saturday we were in 5th place. I talked with the other advisors and they wanted to do it but couldn't keep a straight face. So I get on the bus and I was like listen up guys I have some bad news. The head referee called last night and they had found something illegal on our robot while doing our inspection for finals. They weren't sure so they didn't say anything at the time but confirmed it and then called us. They said we have been DQ. Then silence filled the bus. Some were about to cry and then some made some quotes.."So does this mean we can go home." and "Does this mean we don't have to scout?" Dead silence for about five mins and then someone was like hey it's april fools day and me totally forgetting denied it until I looked at my phone and realizing it was. I convinced them again that I was telling the truth. Finally I walked back up front and then told them I was joking. The silence was broken and we advisors got a good laugh out of it but the kids it took them a minute to get over it.
