FIRST Frenzy 2004. Coolest team giveaway?

[Elgin Clock]

I would have to say that the coolest team giveaway I got was the two limited edition pins that I got.

One featured Andy Grady and said Andy Loves Hanson.

The second cool giveaway I got was a pin with "Dave (Lavery) says "That's Pimp.""

Finally, I got a pin that was made from a Ford logo.. That was kind of cool.

What did everyone else get that they thought was the coolest team giveaway this year??

And, what did everyone think of my team's (237) wooden limited edition to 500 stars??

During the elimination rounds in Archimedes, the #8 alliance teams were trading pins, and one of the adults on 237 gave me the pin off his shirt (which I thought was extremely cool). I feel special having a limited edition pin...I think they're really cool!

I like my Sie-H20-Bots wood pin. I didn't realize it was limited edition when I got it. It's nice to see other people with wood pins. Sadly our quantity of wood pins was limited to judges, ambassadors, and VIPs. Dave Lavery did ask me if our wood pins were laser cut. I have to get a picture of them up sometime. The lady who cut them is amazing on the scroll saw. My other favorites are my special edition MOE pins and my MOE sticks. :clap clap, clap clap clap, clap clap clap clap, Go MOE!

The wooden pins your team passed around ROCKED! I was amazed - particularly when I found out they were all done by hand by one team Mom with a scroll saw!

Hey Dave, would you say that it's pimp?

Anyway, yeah, I belive that I have a wooden pin from you gus last year. They are amazing and I wouldn't trade it for the world.

I have my Sie-H20-Bots wooden limited edition pin on my purse still!

My friend got this really funny sun glasses too that someone traded for a stressball... i'm not exactly sure if there was a team giving them out because i didn't see anyone else wearing anything like 'em!

I was say the coolest thing was when I was approached in the pits and given a doughnut for a post on chiefdelphi. I was like sweet! Free breakfast!

I enjoy my 461 piece-of-2003-robot (I believe it's a battery cover) from the Indiana State Fair. Oh wait.. I'm not supposed to have that.. am I?

This is probably the wrong forum to bring up the rules in, but. . . .
Isn't it illegal to give away anything but pins?

Technically you're not supposed to give anything away, your supposed to trade. You're also not supposed to have music in the pits, music on your carts, powered carts etc........

No. The rules do state though that food items are dissallowed. Pins and other items are allowed to giveaway/trade. So as long as you don't give away food *cough* like some teams did this year *cough* then you are good to go.

I wanted one of them so bad.. but was not able to get one.

Although, if you really want to be popular next year, your team should have extra team jersey's to trade with people. I know of at least a handfull of people who wanted them in a bad way, myself included.
