00:00Being final is always the most stressful, but usually we have like music or background noise,
00:07whatever that may be. And honestly we do better in environments when there's noise going on because
00:13it feels most like practice. So today like you could hear some of the android ringtones going
00:19off, the photo clickers, whatever that was. And so you know you're trying to stay in your zone
00:23and then people start cheering and then the shushing gets louder. So really they should be
00:27shushed because they're louder than them. I don't know it was really weird and awkward and we've
00:32asked several times if we could have some music or some background noise. So I'm not really sure
00:37what happened there, but yeah not our favorite. None of us liked it. It was an odd being final.
