If i recall correctly, it is sitting in the X-Cats shop...

Yes Alex, it is sitting on a table being worked on for our contribution to the Trophy. I just wanted to make sure we had the story straight on how it worked that's why I asked.
Thanks all for the refresher. Let's keep it going since it is a fun and unusual tradition we should keep alive. Unfortunately it's getting pretty big so we are going to expand it a bit so it doesn't get too tall.
My guess at the History then:
2003 578-> 2004 340->2005 229-> 2006 1126? -> 2007 1450 ?-> 2008 191
I look forward to seeing all the old and now new teams at a regional that was originally capped at 45 teams Max.
I'm hoping we can get the Regional webcasted for the first time or at least have it broadcasted over Time Warner Cable.
