VCU 2001...
I remember we had to put out an announcement in 2001 for a 15-pin solder cup, because there were only 30 minutes left in the practice day and we had to have it finished. We put out an announcement, "Team 422 is in need of a 15-pin solder cup, if you have a good 15-pin solder cup that you no longer need please donate it to team 422", and three teams came to us with 3 individual styles of cups. That was awesome.
Another team got the idea and quickly announced "Team XYZ is in need of a working robot, if you have a good working robot that you no longer need please donate it to team XYZ". It was late in the practice day, people were working on robots, but everyone got to have a good laugh to get all the stress worked out of their systems (especially team XYZ).
