button designs

As far as I know, we only have 1 design. However, we realize that we can be slightly obnoxious in the stands, so this year we decided to distribute ear plugs- which have been quite a hit.

Great Idea!

Wow, earplugs, how thoughtful of you guys. Something to get that chant away other than running. We ran to another regional to get away from it. (Not really, I'm just joshin ya. We switched from Drexel to J&J because it's closer and more competitive. Keep on chanting, team spirit is really important, and that's one thing that you sure have a lot of.)

365 Buttons

Joe3 didn't tell you that we do have two more types of buttons but they are only given to team members. We have flashing LED buttons that everyone seems to want. We also have a button that commemorates Lil's MOE's champion performance last year, which we gave to all of the alumni who visited us at Drexel. Some of last year's holographic stickers are still in circulation. Anyway how did team 862 make so many different buttons?

Oh, buttons, right

Yeah, we only gave out one type of button this year, I think about 200 of them actually. Rumor has it that we're going to have some other buttons for something, but that's not my department, so I dunno.

ahh the wonders of making your own buttons, we have a few button-o-matics that can make buttons of everything. Another helpful thing is that one of our engineer's girlfriend is a graphic designer so she and her team designed about 30 different types of buttons, another 20 from our president 5 from me(our publicity chairman does the least work) and 5 from alumni. we had about 1500 buttons for GLR and were working on 1000 more for WMR. the 100 extra came from cool pictures from magazines with 862 written on them. oh the wonders of boredom.

Special Editions

We make two types. There is the basic black FIRESTORM 4 button, and then there is the Special Edition flamed button (about 1/6 as common as the basic one).
