At 2002 Nationals, the Dragon Slayers' mini-beam swords made for some great between-competition fun. I think they were my favorite handout, but the classic button is definitely always fun to collect. Bottled water would definitely be the most practical though.

asher will become famous soon enough
Our head prof is like a 50 year old toddler, in 2001 we handed out rubber goldfish that said 31 on them, so this little kid walks up and says "can i have a button" all sweet and cute, our prof yells "no, but you can have a fish" this little kid must be scared for life, but we were all rolling with laughter

and the triangle to my team 225 keychain i got in 2000 is somewhere in philmont, but i do have the square still on my keys,

oh and their was a team at lone star that was throwing madi gras beads around in the hotel, and they wanted me to flash them, needless to say i didnt, but a guy on my team did, and they threw him beads before they realized it was a guy, ive never seen more embarrased people.

Rubber bands are always a fun idea...especially when they find it useful that they can shoot it at other teams

I'd love to see Izzy cooking SPAM with a magnifying glass, but that stuff is not quite "actually pretty good." But I've only had solar cooked food once, and if it can make me hot dog taste better, it can make SPAM taste better.
