I mean, it wasn't working too well at champs, but still, even in the offseason, I've viewed Spyder at least 25 times...

FLL kids in FRC pits trying to put their litter in our recycle container

Me : "That's not a trash can, well theoretically it is"


This one with my friend at school :

"Hey look! That's 6 points!" While putting a noodle trough his car roof

At the end of the school year, we did a demo in front of every kid at our school at a spring pep session. The team met downstairs and we were talking about what we would do. I remember a few other team members saying something along the lines of this:

"Can we make it more interesting by knocking the stack over with a ball shot from last year's bot?"

[legts]

"Hey, I bet if we ever lose a team member we could find them with echolocation via shouting out the first numbers of our team number!"

(A lot of our cheering is comprised of one person shouting "twenty three" and the rest of the team responding "ninety nine")

(This actually works, by the way)

At least one team's Recycle Rush robot reveal video featured this exact scene.

You don't know how frustrating it is to find out the time during robotics when your cheer starts with "What time is it?". It usually takes me about 4 tries to find someone who'll respond with the actual time as opposed to "KRUNCH TIME".

I am on the CAD team. Every time i would ask a stupid question, the CAD lead would always "Figure it out!" This was probably said around 100 times in the six week time period.

At the end of the year, we had a paper plate awards ceremony. We would write famous quotes, nicknames, etc. The paper plate that i received had the quote "Figure it out!" on the front and a really long calculus equation on the back. Unfortunately i couldn't figure it out. Anyway, that was the quote that was said to me a lot.

Similar thing around PNW, it's 488's cheer, and I guess some of our scouting team found it pretty catchy. I rarely get an actual response

"Let's not forget the bumpers this time!"

Yes we did that one time...

[Raggy]

"ROBOT!!!!!!!"

Ah, thanks. I couldn't remember.
