Oh man! Robo-Prom is always awesome. This is definitely not something to miss.
The students I take always have a great time.

RoboProm was alot of fun last year. As an added bonus, the floor deflects with the beat of the music. I guess thats what happens with all kinds of jumping students

Question: Do Event volunteers count as advisers?

(I am not officially affiliated with any team this year due to various reasons)

How long does it take for the tickets to sell out? Has there always been tickets available at the doors in St.Louis? or have they sold out before then?

I'll be sending this to my team!

As the popularity of RoboProm grows it is a bit hard to gauge how fast tickets will sellout. We have always had tickets available at the door and in the pits but I suggest you get your ticket early if you want to guarantee a spot.

Question: What are the rules on T-shirt suits? They don't like them at the actual prom, so...
And do robots need to pay?

A few people from my team (myself included) wore t-shirts last year without a problem. I wasn't planning on going to Roboprom beforehand so I simply didn't have anything better to wear. Most people are wearing something nicer, but you won't be alone if you just wear a t-shirt.


and +1 on your sig... same here

Last year several people on my team dressed in suits that were far too small/very old and not considered 'fashionable' by today's standards. And nobody had a problem with that

Hey those were MY suits! What do you mean they weren't considered fashionable!?

Hey Guys!

After working things out with the DJ and venue, we are happy to announce that the new scheduled time for RoboProm is 8:00 pm - 12:00 am.

We hope that pushing the event back an hour allows most teams to finish up with their matches.

Hooray! Not that any of my teams will be there, but I'm glad you did this- so teams that are competing won't have to miss the fun! Thank you.

See you all there!

My team was talking about that. The girls (the 8 of us) are dressing up but some of the guys are planning on wearing Tshirt suits with bowties.
