What's The Coolest Thing A Team Can Give Out?

[Alex357]

It definately wasn't on the poll, but the coolest thing i've ever gotten was a cow tail.

So, you like our cow tails? For the Annapolis regional we have these cool keychains that open up and have a little screwdriver set inside of them. Sorry we didn't have them for Pitt....They came in the thursday we left to go to the regional, but we had already left. But hasn't anyone received any of our cow print bandanas that we have been handing out last year and this year and probably longer than i know?

I think the little stuffed martians we give out are pretty cool.

My team had tomahawks that we made. My friend traded two of them for one shirt. Thats probably the best trade I have heard of. Between a shirt and a representative item of the team, I'd pick an item (Like our tomahawks).

One of the coolest things I've seen at the event in the past 2 days has been team 223's safety glasses. Completely functional, and to be honest a lot better than the ones we were using beforehand

For anyone who's ever been to Great Lakes Regional (and Detriot this year too), after finals, before awards, we spread out through the stands and at a preassigned time start handing out our airplanes (balsa wood with sponsor names on wings, weighted nose; they fly very well...). It is the most amazing sight ever to see literally hundreds of airplanes flying down to the field at once. It's the paper airplane, improved.

Hopefully at the Las Vegas regional and nationals we will be handing out poker chips. Cool?

Awesome, just what our team needs at the nationals

1072 had these awesome 1072 fishes that they gave out. Think the Jesus fish, except with 1072 in them. Ingenioius. See Pic.

Yeah and it's the first time I've ever heard FIRST tell people in the stands to stop doing something. That was HILARIOUS. You guys are wild.

i got some silly putty form one team and it is fun to play with

[dubious elise]

Well, as much as I dislike tooting my own horn, I have to admit that our bumper stickers were pretty neat this year...a refreshing change from the usual pins. I just wish that I had been able to drag my camera around more often, they were turning up in the strangest places at MWR and BMR...refs, judges, our own robot, drivers, announcers, other robots, even vision tetras themselves!

I have to say, the dark safety glasses that the TechnoKats (45) dished out were great as were the earplugs from QC Elite (648)... I needed both pretty badly as both pairs of my previous safety glasses disappeared and my rapidly declining hearing isn't being helped by attending competitions.

the best thing that ive ever gotten was hand sanitizer from 204
but thats because im a stickler for hand sanitizer
at the drexel regional sumone was giving out little blowing thingys that made a sound like a baby crying and everyone had one in one part of the stands and the announcer yelled at them it was fun

nothing -- give the money to charity
