Craziest sponsor you have
 

Hey Guys,
I was curious, I am the PR rep for my team, whats the craziest sponsor you have?

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

this may be a dumb question, but crazy in what context?

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

Well, one of ours is Carolina Culinary Foods. They prepare chicken and beef and other such items for restaurants. A little odd at first glance, but all that machinery requires an engineer or two on the payroll. ;)

(Getting a smidge crazier might require a trip to the past: Hooters donated a wings party for 10 to our auction our rookie year.)

I mean like non technological companies

Best I can think of for us is Sweetheart Cups, who gives us silverware and plates for our dinners.

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

I forget whether we (MOE) still have them as a sponsor this year, but for a while, we had a funeral home partially sponsoring us. :yikes:

And I think that's pretty crazy.

We're going for supercrazy next year. We're gonna try and get this company "Fuchs Lubericant" To sponser us, for the sole purpose of saying Fuchs.

I don't know if they are sponsoring us this year, but last year we had a company named PHE. They are an adult toy company.

i was watching a webcast of one of the regonals and remembered seeing
"snowbear frozen custard" mmmm.......tasty :D

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

our is probably Chipotle... yea it's a mexican resturant that has almost nothing to do with engineering

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

We get to combine both of these - Chipotle's and Adams-Green Funeral Home are both co-sponsors of Team 116 this year (along with NASA, SAIC, Dominos Pizza, and - gulp, I have to admit it - Dunkin' Donuts).

one of the contributers that we (103) has is a local rug store.

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

we've got a law office sponsoring us. It's not WAY out there, but it's our "crazy" sponsor

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

We have a local funeral home as well as a dentist and a doctor.

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

We've had some odd sponsors-

Merrilee the Clown - oddly a past team parent (whole family of clowns!)- no jokes please!

and

Royal Hawaiian Creations (www.gorhc.com) - our perennial source of aloha shirts. They have never met us but apparently they hang pictures of our team in their office every year. They even watch the competition on the internet to see how we do!

WC :cool:
