We love the shop rags. Our robot had one on its front at the GLR competition. Judges asked us why we had it and our students mentioned our mentor team 85 and Steve Yasick. They are a really usable product. We love them. Thanks team 85.

One question we have is:

What products are not too expensive to hand out? :confused:

Our team is very limited in money. :( We do produce buttons and baseball cards. People seemed to like our baseball cards. They were easy to make and not too expensive.

This being my first year attending a regional, I was quite amazed at what some of the teams were giving away. From talking to my team mates I knew there was going to be a ton of them. But I never expected such "grand" things.

So here is what I pose to you, the FIRST community (wow that sounds too formal). What was your top 5 favorite give-a-ways from a team at your regional from this year? (please include what regional you attended)

There's been so many cool things I got this year, I wouldn't be able to choose just one. So my top 5 give-a-ways are:

Florida Regional
1. 1341's coconuts
2. 1543's hats/beads
3. 79's little duckies
4. 1319's "smarter than monkeys" buttons
5. 21's power ranger buttons.

Most of our buttons we printed ourselves (I don't think our mentors liked them, but I really don't know), so we ran out of the really fun buttons, like the Power Rangers and Chuck Norris. But for SC we are printing a whole bunch.

I think the funnest things I've seen were actually when my sister was on the team (back in '01 and '02 when I was too young). I really liked the Thunder Chickens key chains (I don't know if they still give them out). Also, I think they were called Dragon Slayers, gave out the swords that pulled out.

I found it strange how we weren't allowed to clap the coconuts together in the stands, while one team was using a drum during the competition, in the pits and in the stands.

I was a little upset about that, because we weren't allowed to bring in instruments, and the team had drums. But I can't really complain because we were clapping the coconuts together the entire time.

Yeah, we will all be there. Hopefully there will be more to provide scouting wise.

We'll also be @ the Palmetto Regional.

Maybe it's because they didn't want people bringing horses into the Regionals. :rolleyes:

My favorite Give-a-way from the Buckeye Regional was Team 70 and Team 494's Alien plushies.

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways

My favorite give away was adams bot little sharpy, kept it around my neck which allowed me to be able to work without having to look for a sharpy in the 469 mess xD

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways

At the Great Lakes Regional, there was a lot of cool swag.
One team gave away Gracious Professionalism braclets, and another mini-sharpies. But my team was giving out fortune cookies with a custom fortune on the inside: our logo and information. Plus we had pads of sticky notes, pens, and buttons.

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways

The CircuitRunners are giving away stress balls, tattoos, beads, and our new addition of buttons.
It was kinda funny. Our mentor bought 2000 glowsticks this year for our B.E.S.T. competition and our FIRST competition all together, but we can't use the glowsticks because they glow bright green. But hey, atleast we have them ready for next year.

You just have to make sure drivers do not wear them when operating behind the glass (I accidently did this one match and they told me to remove it at the end; it completely slipped my mind the green glowstick could do anything since we've had them since 2 years ago at Nats.).

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways

Hmm.... What about Team Photos?

I could just bring a computer, a ton of printer paper, some extra ink, and then go around the pits with my camera asking teams if they'd like a team photo made at some point.

Could be done.... if only I wasn't going to be on the field with my camera instead.
