226: Take a pink unicorn pillow pet named Freggly with you when you get your first place medal in Road Scholar.
Yes, this happened. If you're from Dupont, you met this kid last year. He told you his name was beefy dan.

Re: 101 ways to get kicked out of a competition

In terms of being kicked out of a competition... I doubt he even is part of scioly or went to any invitational. :p

Umm...
291. Or is it 231? I'm not sure. We went from 227 to 288... Not sure... Anyway...
Walk into a competition wearing all your past medals and purposely clanking them around and apologizing really loudly and promising that it won't happen again. Rinse and repeat for till you are banned from the event. Enjoy!
