Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

Just curious how many people have been fooled by the Koko-imposter?

Every year I am in the pits I see tons of people mistake one of our other mentors as Ed. We will have to start a pool each season to see how many times this will happen as a fundraiser! :)

Congratulations to Tytus for being the first person, and Paul Copioli takes 2nd at the 2006 Championships.

haha! That's brilliant!

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

haha! Do you have a picture of the imposter?

Oh yea.... he would look just like koko ed. duh!

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

Nah. Ed told me about the imposter in the pits on Thursday. Then I saw someone who I thought was Ed a bit later, but who I soon realized wasn't.

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

I will post the mug shots soon. once you see them you should see a clear night and day difference.

haha, was i doing the karate chop dance?

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

i was fooled and i slapped him in the butt with a clipboard

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

Wish I would've seen that!

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

well, the hard thing is. If you see them out side on a Sunny day, it's even harder to distinguish the two of them from the blinding shine off the head. :p

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

And if they see you in the forest they mistake you for bigfoot! :p

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

Maybe i can be on the show MythBusters!

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

I must say that once I saw them both standing next to each other and got rather confused.

It was nice to meet the real one in Atlanta though! :)

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

Now doesn't the other one get all disapointed and sad if everyone comes up to him thinking he is someone else? and just walks away since he is not the person you would have gone to look for?

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

Well, I met the true Ed at the webhug and saw them going up an escalator or something at another time when I was busy and couldn't talk to either :)

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

Ron's used to it by now.

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

those are not Koko-imposters! Those are Koko Eds helpers

Because Koko Ed cannot be everywhere at the same time!

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

I think Ed is Ron's imposter.

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

just a question -
Does Ron get cranky?

*innocent eyes*

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

I have yet to actually meet the "impostor", but I do know Koko.

I do remember some people getting confused at FLR, but not too many (at least of what i know)

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

Something worth mentioning:
Ron is WAY cooler than Ed is! Everyone should go out of there way to meet him. I think Koko Ed is the imposter!

No joke, go meet Ron, he's pretty cool.

-JV

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

Ron has been an Xcat since the 1st year of FIRST (1992) !

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

WRONG, Alex is actually nothing more than another impostor himself. yeah thats right hes just an impostor for Tom (my team's Capitan) who was also on Newton this year.

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

I thought I met the real Ed this year, but now I'm not sure.

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

So Alex is an imposter of an imposter of Bigfoot? :confused:
:p

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

Exactly

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

:confused: :p :confused:

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?
 

this is just my lowly non-subliminal thought process working here:

what if:

you splice 'Do Old Robots Go To Heaven' in with 'Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed' and add this whole Big Foot thing -

you might end up 'saving' 2 threads.

:D

Re: Koko Ed or not to Koko Ed?

Ron wears glasses.

Re: Time for a refresher:
 

But we'll both be in the pit area so we'll both be wearing glasses.

Re: Time for a refresher:
 

Yes, but you'll be in the Hall of Fame and Ron will be debating with a big white bear guy named Jeff. How hard can it be?

Haha I love this... to Koko or not to Koko... or is it KooKoo Ed

From the picture Ed posted - it reminds me of some Simpsons Episode where Homer was banned to hell to eat donuts for eternity.
