All of the people around me thought I was a member of 254. Just in the hotel I had 3 people come up to me. Some saying how cool "my" robot was or asking questions about it. I throughout that day got very good at saying that I was not a member of the poofs but it was pretty funny. In the end through a day in STL I had around 10 people come up to me. If I behaved badly, did something stupid, or was rude to the people coming up to me many would assume I was a member of 254 and gain a bad opinion of them.

So be careful who you trade those tshirts too

Never really thought about that. That actually makes a lot of sense though. I feel like if someone wore an 1114 shirt at an IN competition, people would probably know they aren't on 1114. But at worlds, anyone could be from anywhere.
