I remember seeing a sign by you guys in Minnesota that was to be written on if noise levels got loud enough to recommend ear protection, and that the sign recommended none as the pits were at a fairly normal volume. Was the project abandoned by then, or did Minnesota have oddly quiet pits?
Where sound levels get too high, ear protection would not be a bad idea. It would be nice if ear plugs could be handed out by teams using very loud machinery, I guess. I've personally never had a problem with sound at an FRC event, though.
