Re: Penalty for raising tetra higher than player station?

What exactly is illegal? Raising a tetra above the height of the top of the player station glass while in the endzone? Or does the tetra have to break the plane of the player station glass to be illegal?
What I heard on the webcast was that the robot "could" be disabled if the bottom of the tetra it held was above the level of the top of the player station window. Unless I missed it, the tetra didn't have to actually be over the window for the robot to be disabled. Is this correct?
