We don't have any unbelievable crazy sponsors, so I'll turn your attention to the CCNY/HSMSE FRC Team #1520, who nabbed Red Bull as a sponsor, so every day they worked on the bot, a red bull car would deliver a case :yikes:

We don't have any particularly unusual ones, but 1823 from Portland has Voodoo Doughnut - famous (infamous?) for its Pepto-Bismol donuts and odd operating hours (10pm-10am).
They also perform marriages and give Swahili lessons.

A local carpeting store is our craziest...

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

As some may know, team 306 has a long list of small sponsors. The craziest of them include sewing shops, a potato chip company, a hair salon, our local hospital, an optometrists office, and a pizza shop. Our total sponsor list contains arround fifty to sixty small businesses from our town. The strangest to me is the hair salon, but the others are weidr too.

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

Really, the hair salon is the strangest?

I thought for sure that it would be the fish hatchery :)

Hmm, I have a feeling you are mispronouncing Fuchs then, Hexagram.

We have a few local doctors, dentists, and lawyers as sponsors - and yes, we have a funeral home as well :). Some other notables are a local Prescription Center, Golden Guernsey Dairy, and our local resort - Olympia Resort and Conference Center.

For us, even though it's not really weird, I'm pretty sure we have Tim Hortons giving us some money... Well not really money, but more like free donuts and coffee... :D So, during the build season, we would have 2 dozen donuts there almost every day for free... hehehe...

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

oops, I was reading the list and didn't even see the fish hatchery. That list is so darn long.

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

lol.........No Way!! That's so hilarious! hahahahahah! :eek: So did you guys end up putting their logo on your bot?

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

We've had fairly normal sponsors.... but in awesomeness factor, we have one that sweeps the boards. Intuitive Surgical, the guys who make the DaVinci Surgical Robot, were one of our valued sponsors this year.

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

We have only one sponsor :Xerox.
And the craziest thing I can think of that they done is to stick with the program for all of our 15 years when it would have been really easy to drop everything when times were tough.

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

Don't discount that they sponsor us too! It's such a great feeling knowing that the industry is impressed with what you're doing. btw, you (114) had an awsome robot. Good luck at SAC

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

If you are speaking about the fish hatchery... I don't know if they bothered making a logo :)

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

Signshop from Hell

Re: Craziest sponsor you have
 

One of our (1464) sponsers is a company that builds horse farms.
