When you hope a 1675 team member makes the post beforehand.

When upon seeing that, you are flattered.

And your heart kinda leaps for joy at the sight of your team name.

When you decide that your team number has to be the best number ever, and you aren't sure if its cause its a nice looking/sounding number, or if its because its your team number.

Haha. I just realized I got my team number!

1676!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!
^_^
Thanks Shellie!!

anyway....
When you are bored at home, and you go on chief delphi for fun...
When you tell people awesome stories, and start with "So one time, on chief delphi"...
When you realize that you still thinking of ideas for the robot, even when championships are over...
When you hang out with people from other teams over the summer...
When you wear part of the teams mascot costume to school...
When you hear people talk about the Deans List, and you think of Dean Kamen...
When you think of Robotics team names (I thought of torr-mentors xD)...

You have overdosed with FIRST.

[Alex_Miller]

When you are trying to type the words "First Baptist" for a baseball anouncment and you type out "FIRST Baptist"

When you're tempted to yell "ROBOT!" in the middle of the school hallway to get people to move.

[Doctorwho]

You attempt to get your team number as your license plate

[EricH]

When you see a book cover that is purple and green... and immediately say "Super Cell".

When either your mom or your dad says "That should go on a certain website" right after the above incident.

When you've been up so late CADing that you try to do your history homework and upon handing it in the next day, you realize that all your sentences trail off into robotics stuff.

"Emilio Aguinaldo: He was an activist and believed that America had made a promise not to drill tons of holes in this bot."

"The Platt Amendment: The U.S. wrote this bill in response to Cuba’s interest in the new control system."
