St. Louis Regional 'Giveaways'
 

Personally, I have wracked my brain to think of great 'giveaways' for the St. Louis Regional this thursday, March 6th. I know a ton of rookie teams will be there (my team included) and I wanted to make a positive, fun impact on all the teams that are new to FIRST. A lot of rookies have really fun names, and I wondered how they were going to, how do you say it, advertise. :p

I know that Team #1020 will have specially made, limited edition Monkey Armbands, some mini CD's, and a couple of fun things to give away to all of the teams at St. Louis. What about *your* team?

Let us all know what to expect and look for!

As far as I know we'll be giving out buttons. That's about it. Even though it's the teams 9th year, a small budget dosn't allow for much else in the area of advertisements.

PS: What's on the mini CD's?

Uh-uh. If you (or anyone not at the St. Louis regional, for that matter) want to get your hands on an official Prank Monkeys CD-R, you have to either a) come to the Team 1020 pit, introduce yourself, and ask nicely :D , or b) visit the team's website (http://www.team1020.org) and leave us a message.

I love being difficult.

We were going to deliver coffee to every team on Thursday. Alas, the new event site rules prohibit this, so we abandoned the plan.

We are giving away yo-yos and tape measures, they look really neat.

Who wants a 'limited edition' Prank Monkey pin with our famous logo from http://www.team1020.org? :D

I do I do!!

Ill be there Friday and Saturday :p

We have made a fancy laminated chart that will tell you tub scores quickly, NO math required!!!

Good luck in St. Louis,
Team 967 "The Mean Machine"

Our team will be "distributing" bandanas Via my launcher. I'm also including a sucker in each launch so their will be even more incentive to catch them.:D

A "launcher" is awsome but..... the arena staff is very um "lower anatomy" about everything. Cool though if you can use it!

while our team is not going to St. Louis, we are going to Hartford and Long Island, and I know we will be handing out customized dog tags, they're pretty nifty looking :)

Yeah, we're a rookie team as well, so we just have buttons. One team, however, gave out shop towels and a trash bag with their name and logo on it, another gave out a "pit kit" which had candy (!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and some other stuff in it. Of course the only important thing was candy, so I can't remember the other things. Most teams there had buttons, which seem to be the cheapest and easiest to get.
