Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #477

Hey, if I hit hit the Mexican restaurant from here, will you get me a taco when you retrieve the frisbee?

The 3 point goals are too easy to hit. You know the big red buttons that say "Push to Order"? Thats our target.
Do we get a free meal when we hit it?

"Fundraiser at Sonic" turns into "Get RadioShack as a sponsor by knocking on their door with Frisbees thrown from Sonic".

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #477

Both Sonic and 3666 thought that doing an outdoor demo was a great idea.

That perception soon changed after more than a few errant frisbees went into neighboring properties. Broken glass sounds accompanied some of them. The situation got worse when those looking for said frisbees decided to eat at neighboring fast food establishments.

The result as seen here is a demo with only two remaining participants and no spectators.

Perhaps a new demo plan is called for?

[New Entry]

FRC Team 3666 had a very powerful frisbee shooter. During a demo, at Sonic, a poor Jack Russell Terrier caught one of the discs. They found him and the disc a week later alive and well in the next county.

Testing a new restaurant concept: "UltraSonic" - where guests are entertained by high speed flying objects while they dine.

As much as we like to have fast robot and we like to have food when we robot, robots do not go well with fast food sometimes.
