Re: What are your Team Traditions?

Our team has some pretty odd ones...

- Before every match when teams are introduced, the driver and operator must chest bump. This is because at roboprom in 2009, our senior driver and a member of 1124 tried to chest bump during a song. Our senior was about 2 feet taller than her, and as they went up for the bump, she fell backwards, landed flat on her back, with him falling on top of her.

- At least one night during our away regionals, our team has "Monster Pong" in one of our hotel rooms. 48 cans of Monster are brought, and teams of 2 compete against eachother in a variation of the game "Beer Pong". As far as I know, we have yet to finish all 48 cans in one night.

- In Atlanta, it was a tradition that each of us would order a Chick-Fil-A milkshake for breakfast each day at the CNN Center.

- On our way to each competition, some of our members always try to sing "Aces High" by Iron Maiden to get the team pumped up. Unforetunately, this one never caught on, as most of the people on our team have never even heard our theme song, or Iron Maiden

- Each year, our team has a yearbook, given to mentors and sponsors of the team. We have articles and pictures detailing our competitions and events throughout the year. It is customary for whichever person is late for the bus to each respective competition to be forced to write the article for that competition.
