Re: The free hugs thang
Thats very true, the free hug thing got preety big last year. I remember doing it in Houston in 2003 in the Homer head but it wasn't as big back then.

Re: The free hugs thang
I don't even hold claim to hugs. Free Hugs were around wayyyy wayyy before me. I just continued the tradition with renewed exburance, and of course...the Short Person touch. :)
Welcome to the free hugs thang NoUseForANAme. :) We look forward to you joining us in a frolic beyond belief. Love, Genia |

Free Hugs
"Aaaaa"/"Ehhhh"/"Heeeey"/<insert other variation here> No matter how many people lay claim to these FIRST trends, we'll never know who "really" started them :p PS: When I was a freshman (2001) there were people giving out 'free hugs' at competitions. ;) |
Re: The free hugs thang
i cant really claim i was the first to do it at a robotics competition, since this is only my second year on a robotics team, but i remember at middle school grad nite a bunch of my friends and i ran around sea world asking people for hugs and trying to keep a tally of who could get the most hugs in one night...
but yeah, as always, i offer free hugs, not just at competitions, but anywhere really. you've just gotta ask :) |
Re: The free hugs thang
I guess this must be a nationals 'thang' cuz for the last three years and 5 regionals, I haven't seen anyone offering free hugs. I feel left out...

Re: The free hugs thang
Last year a teammate and I both had the free hugs signs at the regionals. (thats actually how i met Genia!). I also know that i had the sign at IRI 2003. and I am pretty sure that my team was doing it all throughout 2003 and 2002. (and you know were not gonna stop now!)
andrew-I look forward to hugging you- morrison |

Re: The free hugs thang
Well, I personally don't think ANYONE should claim free hugs.
Hugs make the world go round! And if people didn't hug one another, then there would be a lot of sad people. I've read in books that in order for someone to be completely happy, they have to recieve at least 12 hugs a day. So thank you, free hug givers (esp. Paul), for making the world a brighter and healthier place! |
Re: The free hugs thang
hugs are cool, but this should probobly be in chit chat

Re: The free hugs thang
Man, I remember free hugs from 6 years ago. I don't remember HEEEEY until 3 years after that. I remember starting that HEEEY thing amongst my team (not taking credit from all of FIRST, but I was the first to do it on my team, I'm pretty sure :)) Those were good times. Going around the lazy river with everyone yelling HEEEEY and a bunch of old people looking at you a bit funny. Wait. 6 years ago? Holy crap. Personally, I don't think anyone actually 'started' these things. There were lots of contributors.. but free hugs and HEEEY is only around because a whole bunch of people started the effort. It's a tradition that can't die :)
