if they are blockading, and not touching the pyramid, you can sneak through, as long as you understand that if the refs think that your action is consequential per the Q/A answer and per the Ref's judgement, you will get penalized.
Siri's answer is correct. You can do it, but be careful. Know the rules for questioning a match result (Question Box), and be prepared with printed rules if needed. Also look at the rules regarding blockading and stopping the flow of the match.

I'm 5'5", and I'm our team's drive coach. Our drivers are nearly always taller than me. In my case, it's not the driver's station that needs to be made of lexan...it's our drivers. - StephLee [more]
