I loved that video. A lot. For the same reasons...and it also meant that we got to see a bit of the game about two minutes earlier, and it was totally unexpected (I had to muffle myself to keep from screaming "OMG OMG OMG" at a volume where the folks in Alaska could probably hear it).

Thank you so much to everyone who was a part of the event that brings so much joy and excitement to the thousands of kids, mentors, and sponsors around the globe: Dean, Woodie, Dave, the GDC, NASA, the speakers, governors, volunteers, and those who hosted the local kickoff events. Thank you to the teams, sponsors, speakers, field assemblers, and technical operators who helped set up and run the local kickoffs. Thank you especially to 503 (Frog Force, from Novi, MI) for bringing the idea of local kickoffs to the table several years ago. From my understanding, if it hadn't been for them, we would probably all still be sending 2 reps to Manchester (I could be wrong).
