Now if you were a little richer you could give away mini models of your robot that drive around and/or herd little soccer balls. Now that would be cool!

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

Our team, 2024, gave out hand painted kukui nuts at the Silicon Valley Regional. I thought they looked really cool. Stringing and writing 2024 on all 150 of them was pretty tedious though. I'm not sure if we are doing it for nationals cause I really dont feel like making over 500 in two weeks. But if a lot of you guys want them I'll try to get started.

There should be an "other" category. We're giving out hand-puppets

O man lol, I never thought Id actually run into anything that's funny on this site. But this is great haha. Safety FIRST lol without a doubt

But in all seriousness....Ice cream and bubbles. If any team gave out ice cream AND bubbles...I don't even know what to say that I would do for them, yea thats how sweet it is.

Actually, Team 100 (I only saw them at SVR this year) printed Robotics versions of a 100-dollar bill, with "In Dean We Trust" and the signature of their team captain. They also had a picture of their robot the BallFrog in the place where normally Ben Franklin would sit. It was pretty awesome.

Any team who hands out PWMs would become my absolute hero. It seems that ours break every time we as much as look at them.
