Just because we don't cheer, doesn't mean we don't have fun.

Re: pic: Operation Playhouse

I wonder if the folks who label generic merchandise for trade shows (and FIRST teams' giveaways) could come up with a cost-effective means of printing a logo on a few thousand balls.

Always looking to optimize the production process....

Re: pic: Operation Playhouse

Something tells me that 118 won't have to shop for giveaways next year--add "118" to all surviving balls and it's a perfect giveaway!

Definitely the best prank I've seen in FIRST thus far in my career.

Absolutely fantastic.

Re: pic: Operation Playhouse

So I was walking around Newton and saw some play place balls in a clear plastic bag. I wondered what it was for....

This is pretty awesome!

Re: pic: Operation Playhouse

It would be ironic if those balls were next year's game piece, at which point 118 could reply "muahahaha!".
