Allright, I'll bite.
It was my team's first competition EVER, @ the Peachtree Regional - 2004 - and we were standing by the playing field, me and some guys from my team. These guys came up to us and one of the guys walks up to me all suave and trying to be cool and then says ...
"Sooo, you are team Manure, huh?" At that point the guys behind me just bust out laughing and I'm like
"Noo, its Minotaur." His face got so red and he disapeared so quickly. The funny thing is that those guys didn't even look like they were in a team, it seems like they were just visiting. And I guess they mistook the name Minotaur which was in very big letters in our shirt for "Minoaur?"
**Man, that must have been some badly designed t-shirts** But I do have to give this to them, my hair is long and was covering part of the name ... maybe that was what threw him off.
Anyway, that one single line became the joke of our team for years. Even our mentors joked around with it for a long time ... oh yeah team Manure ... yeeehaaa!!! I do have to say to whoever was that delivered that jaw-dropping line ... rest assured you delievered many laughs for many people. Thanks!
Ahh! Great robotics competitions!!!
