View Full Version : Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
Just curious how many people have been fooled by the Koko-imposter?
Every year I am in the pits I see tons of people mistake one of our other mentors as Ed. We will have to start a pool each season to see how many times this will happen as a fundraiser! :)

haha! Do you have a picture of the imposter?
Oh yea.... he would look just like koko ed. duh!
Nah. Ed told me about the imposter in the pits on Thursday. Then I saw someone who I thought was Ed a bit later, but who I soon realized wasn't.
I will post the mug shots soon. once you see them you should see a clear night and day difference.

well, the hard thing is. If you see them out side on a Sunny day, it's even harder to distinguish the two of them from the blinding shine off the head. :p

And if they see you in the forest they mistake you for bigfoot! :p

I must say that once I saw them both standing next to each other and got rather confused.
It was nice to meet the real one in Atlanta though! :)

Now doesn't the other one get all disapointed and sad if everyone comes up to him thinking he is someone else? and just walks away since he is not the person you would have gone to look for?

those are not Koko-imposters! Those are Koko Eds helpers
Because Koko Ed cannot be everywhere at the same time!

I think Ed is Ron's imposter.

just a question -
Does Ron get cranky?
*innocent eyes*
I have yet to actually meet the "impostor", but I do know Koko.
I do remember some people getting confused at FLR, but not too many (at least of what i know)
Something worth mentioning:
Ron is WAY cooler than Ed is! Everyone should go out of there way to meet him. I think Koko Ed is the imposter!
No joke, go meet Ron, he's pretty cool.

WRONG, Alex is actually nothing more than another impostor himself. yeah thats right hes just an impostor for Tom (http://www.flickr.com/photos/26092112@N00/109975235/in/set-72057594078205630/) (my team's Capitan) who was also on Newton this year.
I thought I met the real Ed this year, but now I'm not sure.

this is just my lowly non-subliminal thought process working here:
what if:
you splice 'Do Old Robots Go To Heaven' in with 'Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed' and add this whole Big Foot thing -
you might end up 'saving' 2 threads.
:D

Yes, but you'll be in the Hall of Fame and Ron will be debating with a big white bear guy named Jeff. How hard can it be?
