I was so glad to see Woody there. Just before Mark Leon introduced our team, Woody came over to take a picture of me our drive coach (we had mohawks) and he shook our hands. We were so awe-struck.

Also, congrats to 492. Team 360 attended their kickoff and pre-ship, and we're glad to call ourselves their friends. Even after their elimination, they came down to the arena to offer us advice about the opposing alliances and to wish us good luck. Nobody was more deserving.
