IRI 2003 Quotes
Here are some quotes from the 2003 IRI, most coming from the Saturday night gathering of random FIRST people in Big Mike’s room at the OMNI. Most of them come from “Big Mike” or JVN, so I guess they were the funniest ones there.
“Even small boats have trouble getting away from me.” – “Big Mike” “What is it with the boys on this team and coming on to me?” –“Big Mike” “It’s funny to look over there and see Clark and Kyle together. It’s like Baker’s cloning people to work the scoring table.” – JVN “Go work with 229 like everybody else in FIRST!” –“Big Mike “229 takes all kinds, as long as they’re not stupid.” – JVN “I’ve said some of the stupidest things in the world, and I’m still allowed on 229.” – “Big Mike” “Mangia, you’re not allowed on 229.” – “Big Mike” “How does a sign turn into a lady friend?” – Anthony Mangia, Team 25 “And you wonder why people come to our team? It’s obvious – poison.” – JVN “Mommy… girls like me now.” – JVN “There will be a definite lack of me in bikini tops.” – “Big Mike” “But Ricky actually looked good in that” – Chell “If you call going to the movies a date, then I’ve gone on dates with Anthony and Keith lots of times.” – “Big Mike” “Chell, you’re like the Darth Vader of all chicks” – “Big Mike” and last, but not least: “$@#$@#$@#$@# you all to hell, or what I like to call the Midwest.” – “Big Mike” Last edited by Jeff Waegelin : 20-07-2003 at 20:30. |

Yeesh, I spend two nights hanging out with you guys and you call me Kevin.
The name's Keith. And who could forget WHY our dear Mangia is banned from 229 unlike everyone else: "Doesn't optional stop signs ruin the purpose?" -Anthony Mangia, team 25. Yes, the same famous Anthony, called Aignam on CD, who during Duel on the Delaware, threw a ball into the plexiglass window, both temporarily paralyzing all drivers in laughter and hitting him in the face. |

"Are you the Chaz?" - Lots and Lots of people
The explanation behind this- For the IRI Chairman's Award you had to take a picture of Charlie Moorhead(see here), a soon to be Sophomore on our team. Well somehow his nickname is "The Chaz", and it said to find and take a picture of a person on 234 w/ the nickname "The Chaz". So, throughout the competition many people were asked "Are you the Chaz?" such as Sam Harding, Libby Ritchie and many others. Are you the Chaz? |

"@##$%^&! Oh My God!!!! What am I gonna do?" - Me after my laptop decided not to work literally less than an hour before Chairman's was due!
Thanks again to Neal(? I think...if i have the wrong name, let me know) of the Prank Monkeys for providing a laptop, and to Amanda Morrison, Brandon Mensing, and Libby Ritchie for helping to keep me sane. |

Not quite a quote, but Paul Copioli called me "Mr. Flag" or something like that for all the flags I threw for Human Player violations. There were quite a few...

Who could forget this one?
"There is no way to be gentle with DJ." - Chelly ------------------------------------- Or our nice gum rubber conversation: Steve: "Do they have any more (gum rubber wheels)? I want to cut them into strips and put the gum rubber on the bottoms of my shoes so I can say, 'there, no one can push me'." Everyone: "...." Steve: "'Cause, they're always saying they no one can push them because their wheels are gum rubber ..." Big Mike: "... Do you know what's on the bottom of your shoes? Gum rubber." Steve: "... Shut up!" ------------------------------------- Between all of our good quotes and singing in the sauna (Bohemian Rhapsody, anyone?), the stay at the Omni was wonderful! ![]() - Katie |

let's not forget that anything can be funny at 1 am, especially when you've overstayed your welcome in Mike's room.
Hence the following: Mangia: It's too early. Everyone: ... Mangia: It's either too early or too late. "Big Mike": It's too something. Sara: *looks at clock* Actually, it's one something. |
