Some interesting things that happened today at Y-Combinator dinner:

1. On their way to YC dinner, they got stopped by the police.

2. Using my phone, I got to pass hi to Paul and Jessica and congratulate her on the book's success :)

3. I noticed that about 30 founders attended the dinner. From that, I am guessing there are about 15 groups funded this winter.

4. Some prank caller ordered five pizzas (three they paid for) at Justin's name :s

5. We got to see Trevor's awesome robot, live.

It'd be fewer. The mean founder count is surely greater than 2.

There are 13 startups this winter. But there were more than that at this dinner; alumni often come to dinners too. We probably had closer to 50 people here today. We actually ran out of food, so it was handy those guys sent us pizzas.

Wow,how serendipitous. I'm hoping next time the pizza will show up to Justin's apt(two floors below mine) with the bill prepaid and a 24 pack of Sam Adams to boot.
