CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #172

[cooker52]

So this is why we shouldn't use the "FIRST is like Basketball" speech.

[taylort]

When all else failed, team 1980 activated plan beta:

Launch the heat-seaking ringer and stare inconspicuously at the controller board.

(Unfortunately, they neglected to test plan beta during practice, leading to general disarray.)

[EricS-Team180]

...in my thoughts I have seen
rings of blue,
lights of green,
and the voices of those who stand looking...

[KathieK]

In an off-season twist to last year's game, Duel organizers decided to let Human Players hang from the rafters and try and drop ringers onto the rack...

[Schnabel]

OH NOES! THE GHOST TUBE HAS COME FROM THE GRAVEYARD!!

[Al Skierkiewicz]

Incoming!!!!! Does this qualify as friendly fire no matter who threw it!?!?!

[Barry Bonzack]

of all of the cartoonish sound bytes that come with the FIRST field, unfortunately no one has thought to add the "whistling falling object" sound effect.

[EddieMcD]

"Oh great, another flying saucer. Hey buddy, this is a no-probing zone! Try over by the football field!"

[kramarczyk]

What do you mean that the fuel cell pilot teams filled the ringers with hydrogen?!? Oh, the humanity!

[Rich Wong]

Ha ha….. someone filled the RacknRoll inner-tubes with helium!
Does anyone have their Aim-High robot with them?

[skimoose]

Alright, who brought their Aim High robot to a Rack N Roll event!

[DonRotolo]

"Duck!"
"Um, I don't think 1266 is here... Oh. Ow. "

[Billfred]

No matter what anybody says, I did not forget about the caption contest. I just remembered other tasks first.

Hapless rookie human player: What about the raised basketball hoop?

Coach: We are NOT playing basketball here!

Without Wayne Doenges' 6,734 points, the scores almost look respectable....
He's been going all New England Patriots on us.
