Match starts... and the robot careens into the opposite wall!
Programmer:"Well, you didn't remind me to stop it!"
We were on the ref's watch list for the rest of the event as we later found out.
Because of this incident, every time we change the autonomous, everyone asks if it stops when it's done.

Same thing happened to me this year during build season. Except when I did it, the laptop was still plugged in, and I had to run after it until it went through 2 stools, a table, and finally hit the wall. Luckily the arm wasn't deployed.
