10 Red Balloons by Snively '11
Gotta catch 'em all!
ASSEMBLE!
Prefrosh, undergrads, alums, this is a call to action! It is time for us, all of us, to band together under a common dome and accomplish what needs to be done!
Tomorrow, at 10:00 AM (ET), DARPA is deploying Ten Red Weather Balloons all across the country. $40,000 goes to the first team to locate all of them, by any means necessary. The balloons will only be visible until 4:00PM local time, so time is short!
With alumnae, prefrosh, and current students all across the country, who better to win this than a team from MIT?

and be on the lookout tomorrow. If you find a balloon and MIT ends up winning, you get $2,000. Period. Simple as that. The person who invited you gets $1,000. The person who invited that person gets $500. Get it? The rest of the money MIT collects goes to charity. I’ve now invited all of you, and it’s up to you to invite your friends!
Let’s do this folks!

Uhh! Looks like a lot of us are from outside the United States.
They should get Falcon Heene as the poster child for this effort.
For the first (and hopefully last) time in my life, I have to say BOO MIT!!! Nerdfighters are gonna win this, and the money’s gonna go for charity!!!!!
