Yes, 418 is LASA Robotics and it is also known as Purple Haze. In latter years, the team has developed their logo and is using LASA Robotics consistently, but they are still Purple Haze. At Lone Star Regional, the team often asks the dj to play Purple Haze and they have always been thrilled when the dj does play it.
Funny - now there are 3 ?!
Aside: I recently put together some tee shirts of their lead mentor, Tony Bertucci, to make a quilt and one of the blocks is one of the oldest team tee shirts. It simply says: Purple Haze. It pre-dated my time on the team so it goes back a bit. They've also been known to name their robots using the PH in the name. One that comes to mind is PHlappy.
