Inspection Stories
There was a 2012 thread for this, but I didn't want to necro-post it.
As inspectors, our goal is to get all teams on the field with a legal robot that meets the rules. Sometimes, this requires herculean efforts by the inspection team and the valued and experienced mentors and students that will work with another team's robot with no notice, to make sure everyone gets a chance to compete.
Inspectors, what are the crazy things you've dealt with at events? Please share your "war stories" below.

The manual can be compared to a textbook in school. If you choose not to use your textbook, you are asking to fail classes. - dez250 [more]
