There also isn't room to do it. It was mostly sarcastic. Honestly I think people can occupy themselves waiting for the next match or dance to whatever dance song they happen to be playing.

I see plenty of teams dancing around. I think even Team Rush (Kyle included) get their groove on once in a while.

i also was designated the stand-in in the pits to make sure we would be ready to be called during the playoffs, which was boring till the finals...

I think FIRST should just provide 10 noodles in every field kit sent to events specifically for this regardless of whether they are needed for the game or not. (we had a contest at Peachtree as well due to a FMS issue)

I'm not sure but I assume they send noodles in spare parts for the teams that forget to make bumpers.

The many fields is one of the things I love about VEX. 3 fields, 5 min turn times, roboteers get 14 plays before the eliminations. Elims go super fast and you use the few mins of downtime to present awards.

I for one hate the really long breaks.....
