Go to Post I got to talk with Mr. Flowers briefly last year. I told him that I had wanted to be part of FIRST since about 1980. It was nearly a quarter-century later when my son entered high school and I joined the TechnoKats as a mentor. - Alan Anderson [more]

Played for the Bosox too .. and Fenway park is right next to Copley Square.

Could it be a baseball based contest?
If by "right next to" you mean 6 miles, then sure.

And, I just remembered this past weekend the only obscure reference I recall that someone, who is named Woodie, made about Boston.

Quote:
Sometimes, he said, he wonders how much society understands or appreciates scientific achievement. Using the Ted Williams Tunnel to make this point, Professor Flowers said, "Here you have a multimillion-dollar engineering triumph, and it's named after a guy who could hit a rock with a stick."
Quoted from both here:

& also paraphrased here:
