You know you're in MAR when...

You know you're in MAR when the big offseason of your area has more teams than the district events.

To be fair, Monty is actually smaller than Bridgewater (42 to 43).

You know you're in MAR when you follow a wallet on Twitter. Ok, I don't actually have a Twitter account, but I read them anyway.

And started with a wait-list of 10 teams.

You know your in MAR when a team who won a district as the number 1 seed does not get selected for eliminations at District Championships.

The fact that this happened is absolutely nuts!

Corollary: You know you're in MAR when the second-to-last Worlds qualifier captains an alliance to Einstein.

Seven.

You know you're in MAR when you've hit a team density of 4 per square mile.

Oh, wait I meant including the banners for winning the district champs themselves and 1640's Newton banner. Without these, it would in fact be 7

Edit* : When 3 out of the 6 chairman's teams are on the finals of district champs and none of them wins either chairman's award.

Edit2*: Nevermind, I misinterpreted "Seven" to mean seven banners, forgetting about the incident with 222 and 1370.

He meant 7 teams played in the finals. 1370 was the 7th.

Oh I had completely forgotten about that...Makes sense considering I'm horrible at math and there were actually 8 banners (not 7) excluding the district champs and St Louis banners

But how about: You know you're in MAR when 1640 wins district champs back to back, 341 wins both Hatboro and Chestnut Hill back to back, and 222 wins Mt. Olive back to back.

Re: You know you're in MAR when...

You know you're in MAR when... the scoreboards at the regional championship venue show not only what match is currently playing but what match is being queued as well.

^That was an amazing idea by the way. +1 for MAR

Your kids say...can we do SIX MORE events and you say...Ok, I will sign us up for Monty, MidKnight, GPower, Duel, Eruption, and Riot....then they say...Great let's work another fifteen weeks on the thirty point climber of mass destruction...I don't know why I bother paying for Fios, I am never home to watch tv.
