Funny, so do I. Mainly because I get off of work at that time.

Now, 1197 doesn't exist as a clock time, but I've gotten it a couple times on receipts from various places, usually as the amount.

469 has been known to take a slight detour around Indianapolis.

It would also seem that perhaps certain team numbers are more common than others.

You mean like twice a day? =P

I would imagine Juggernauts see their number quite a lot ...

[Grey Mann]

Oh look. Its 9:97 AM.

My team celebrates 11:24 am or pm as some kind of holiday -- we have multiple group chats and it's become this insane spirit thing wherein we don't stop talking about/virtually chanting for our team for ten or so minutes.

Hobbypartz has 3D printer filament for 26.40...I had to buy it - even if I didn't need it!

2:25 PM, or 1425 hours always seems to come up. $14.25 also seems to come up quite often, and math problems come out to 1425 a lot.

Doesn't happen often for my team number (3061), but I ALWAYS notice school rooms 148 and 118, 254 seems to pop up everywhere, and like the guy who posted earlier, 11:14 is a strangely common time for me to look at the clock

[asid61]

254 is everywhere. I was making some dice on the mill yesterday and I glance up at the DRO, and what do I see? 2.54. On both axis.
It seems to happen a lot on the mill. 115 pops up only occasionally, however.

I have a whole photo album on Facebook devoted to whenever I see robotics numbers

One of my teammates has his phone set to 24 hour time, then has an alarm go off at 3:40 every day (15:40 military time). It's a pretty common occurrence when we're in the lab after school for him to come running in saying "JACOB! LOOK AT THE TIME!"

I also always look at the clock when it's 11:14. Not even on purpose.
