Fun Events

This year, Ruckus will include these fun and engaging events!

Pie In The Eye 

Ever want to smash a pie in one of your favorite mentors, teammates, or a FIRST "celebrity's" face?  Here's your chance!  During the elimination rounds, we'll be giving a lucky winner a chance to "pie" one of the team members or staff that have volunteered to do so.  Raffle tickets will be available throughout the day for each "pie target"!

Mini Punkin' Chuckin' 

Our new fun game for 2011!  Participants will be armed with miniature foam pumpkins and will attempt to toss them from the field border into one of 3 pumpkin tubes on the playing field.  The punkin' closest to the center of each pumpkin tube will win one of our great prizes!

For this game, there will be prizes gratiously donated by AndyMark and Two Pencil Designs!  Each winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to use at AndyMark, as well as a t-shirt or hoodie. One lucky winner will also win a gearbox from AndyMark!

Registered teams will receive a few punkin's at registration to distribute to team members.  Additional punkin's will be available throughout the day - the more you have punkin's, the more chances you have to win!

All proceeds from this fun game will be donated to our chosen charity, Foodlink.  Thanks again to AndyMark and Two Pencil Designs for donating the prizes!

Mentor Matches 

It's the mentors turn to drive the robot!  A series of matches will be played with all-mentor drive teams!  This set of side-matches is an annual favorite for the participants and spectators alike

To participate, sign your team up in the morning with Pit Admin.  Then form your mentor drive team and have them bring your robot to compete at the scheduled time!
