I remember 2004!

1241 WAS awesome. Their human player, as I understand it, had been plucked from the highschool basketball team (something Rick Hansen SS was much more well known for at the time than robots). He's STILL part of 1241 today as a mentor, and has a job in a STEM field (someone please correct me if I'm wrong).

The only thing 1241 needed in 2004, was an alliance partner with a good auto. At the wonderland invitational (a long-since defunct Canadian offseason) 1241 selected 1075 for our autonomous, and 1114 was our alliance's third pick. The three of us went on to win that event. I still have one of the 5 pt dodgeballs that were the game pieces.

Also: Wow @ 67 in that video from the 2004 GLR. Brilliant play. Love it.
