Robotics Members Automatically Good Dancers?

Can someone actually tell me what the rule against dancing is? Or point me to it (even though I think I lost my handbook for this year somewhere underneath my bed and my locker at school since it has been MIA since...ooo...January! LOL!)

I'm not sure where the 'no dancing' rule is stated.


Why would you deny hot mascots the chance to dance?

I just thumbed through the FIRST manual and didn't find any rule against dancing. I'm thinking with the scaled back rules this year that either they didn't post it or repealed it.

Has anyone had the pleasure of being asked to do the tick dance?

I really shouldnt be saying this but....Seth and Paul from Gus were slow dancing hand in hand and it was pretty sexy. That was the perfect moment to tape him but i dont know how willing he'll be these days

It's a lot easier to dance when you're hiding behind a mask or team mascot outfit.

Not that I've done it, though. My dancing is reminiscent of Vincent Vega's in Pulp Fiction. That's the best I can do, even when surrounded by fellow nerds.

Watch for a crazy gorrilla at Chicago.

Aww, I see you mentioned Andrey, but not me. I guess he's just the better half. . Being pretty challenged in the coordination department kind of sucks- guess I should just stick with soliciting the Stump Julie (rubix cube) game, and cross my fingers that he doesn't plan on taking the robot to prom instead of me...
Did you see the little girl with the Afro from Gaelforce? She had plenty of guts. .

I know exactly who your talking about. She was wearing a green cheerleading outfit?

I'd have to agree with Andre's dance, it's pretty awesome, but I have firsthand knowledge that robotics does not a good dancer make. Try looking for me (FIRST-e, The Dynamos' mascot) at the next competition. I'll prove your theory wrong without even trying I hope to learn, but for now, I just flail and pretend I know what I'm doing

Oh yeah, if you wanna see dancing check out my breakdancing to vanilla ice's Ninja Rap..ok maybe not...lets say that Dexy's Midnight Runners have a better chance of reforming, putting together a new album and bringing down the "Hip-Hop" dominance era...

I think that the rason so many people that are involved in robotics dance because a FIRST competition is a place where people can jsut be them selves. Most students are rather reserved because they are usually worried about their "image" when they are at school or other places. Thats one thing that I think is great about the FIRST orginization, they let "closet" nerds/geeks be themselves as well as let people who love making fools of them selves (namely me) have fun and let loose. BTW did anyone who was at GLR see those guys from Tech-Fusion(0279) dancing, they were the best!

On a lighter note, wow I can't dance! Ask anyone who was at the Great Lakes Regional,(I was the guy in the cape and beanie[my temporary excuse ofr a mscot unifor] that always had the camera) when I was trying to dance with the mascotts, wow that was too fun. Good times, good times.
