It is not gracious or professional to steel anything from anyone.


What I took away from Atlanta was one of the best and most inspiring events of my life and I will never forget the amazing people and teams that I had the pleasure to interact with.
Oh dear, we seem to have a humorless man here. No, this is not a joke. But it is a joke, if you follow. We asked for and got permission to take the signs, as Kelly has stated. We did NOT steal a fire can, nor did we steal the fire extinguisher that is shown in the picture, it is one that we keep in our shop for safety purposes. It is neither gracious nor professional to assume the worst of your fellow FIRSTers.

And that is not all you took away. Not everyone got a Chairman's award to remember championships by.

Finally, we did not "steel" anything. We did not even steal anything. Except for the toilet paper. And the kid on the left.
