Gotta love those robotic Engineers...

I want one! Hehe. I'm telling you people give out free gasoline! Just like fill up water bottles and pass it out! lol. But I really do want to see a robotic engineer. I think they would listen better then some human engineers some times... Some times.

I think one of the coolest things for teams to hand out is tools. My team handed out pop-rivit guns at the
UTC Reginal. When a team gives tools away it shows that they are being good sports

I loved those wrenches... I play with mine all the time in class. And it boosted my physics grade as our teacher is obsessed with Stuyvesant .

But of course the coolest handouts are the BMS bags. Especially the FURY ones.

yeah... mentee editions are worth more than mentor editions... cause we never screwed up!

::sigh:: you and your premiums... and the ones that "passed the test"

we had a big thing with buttons being "within desired parameters." if they weren't, we'd run em through the button-maker again VERTICALLY so they get bent and are unusable

Our team gave out many different things. Last year we just gave out buttons. Very Boring. This year we cranked it up many notches. We handed out boxes of usefull stuff to the judges, lil flashy thingies, buttons (of course), kazoos, and clappers. Hehe.
