Bag Day? Really?

[Bill_B]

It looks like the era of crates and decoration thereof is over for regionals, at least. The community seems to have latched onto "bag day" as description for the transition. We all can appreciate the entertainment value of a hectic build season although that is surely not the only aspect of the period.

When the entertainment industry finishes one of their productions, they traditionally have a celebration called a wrap party. I'm not sure why it's called that, but it seems a much more appropriate designation for FRC's end of season event. Would that I could do a global edit of CD posts and titles to change all those "bag days" to "wrap days!" Some musically talented team may even produce a rap song to commemorate the cessation of building.

Now let's work on polishing up the phrase "stop build".
