CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #81

You see, we're up against this robot from Hammond, Indiana the next match. I hear that they are pretty good. If you can sway a tetra or two our way, I sure would appreciate it."

What do you mean the "Donut Fairy" took them. Wait, is that the Commander Keen 3 theme in the background. You guys took the Flighsticks back to the Omni to play Commander Keen?!? We have a match in 3 minutes! No, It's physically impossible for me to stand on the pressure pad, operate the arm, and drive at the same time! What are we gonna do?!?!?!

*pause*

You want me to look at the match schedule at a time like this!?!?! I don't think so! You guys are slacking off, and I'm sittin... I mean running around frantically trying to find someone to stand on the pressure pad. Okay, fine, I'll look at the schedule.

*looks down*

Oooooooohhhhhh, we're paired with 67 and 71. But that doesn't matter, I still need someone to stand on the pressure pad!
