.......when you save receipts from In-N-Out because the order number is your team number. you also have several of these receipts pinned on a bulletin board

You know you're overdosed when you smile because the secretary in the main office knows what AndyMark is.

When you spend every free hour you have on CD waiting for your coach and team-mates to log on so you can talk about the robot more.

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

When you enjoy making bumpers. Then the word bumpers sounds suddenly cool Bumpers somehow consume your days, looking at past robot's bumpers. Teee heee....I said bumpers!

Swing by and say hello to team 1671 in San Diego this year

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

when you find your self constantly searching for another FIRSTer to share something that reminds you of a part, a game, or a private joke.

when you are taking the SAT at a neighboring school and wonder if there are any other FIRST kids in the building, other than the three team members you saw.
