facebook clue?

[Josh Drake]

From the FIRST fb page.... "Just saw an elf run by with an FRC Kickoff clue tucked under his arm. Hmm, the new year must be approaching!"

This one is too easy, footballs will be the game piece.

Close - the official game piece will be a vintage 1972 rugby ball used in gameplay in New Zealand. They should be easy to find - Piggly Wiggly keeps them in inventory (unless for some reason they're out of stock, or you don't happen to live in one of the 18 states that has a Piggly Wiggly ...)

It certainly fits the "based on a real sport every other year" trend. However, I feel a non-circular ball game piece may be a bit difficult to work with (especially for new teams).

There always seems to be some aspect for the new teams to still contribute.

Silly Facebook! Elves don't play football! They participate in elvish activities such as making toys, preparing Santa's sleigh, and WWE wrestling.

Learn your facts Facebook!

Plus, how can you hold a game hint?

I feel like that was a graciously-proffesional "cool story bro"

[jdunston94]

think of throwing the football like a pitching machine in baseball... of course in baseball the way you throw it doesn't matter as much but if you can spin high placation wheels and get them up to speed then jam a football in, you could get the propulsion and direction,spin with controlling the speeds and direction of the wheels
