COOL SPONSER

[sporno]

now i know this isnt like some metal company nd all , but how cool would it be to get sponsered by Red-Bull or like monster energy ..... wadda ya think

[Taylor]

I think it's been done - I've been to at least one event where Red Bull was being handed out.
When looking for sponsors, don't limit yourself to fab/metalworks. Some of the best ones come from realtors, dentists, car dealers, restaurants, media - everybody wants a piece of success!

In the past, everyone gets really excited when the Red Bull truck pulls up to the Duel on the Delaware with free drinks...

The one I remember was Hooters Air. That had to be the most popular pit at the championships.

I personally think Chip Ginassi Racing is a pretty darn cool sponsor myself. (they were an associate sponsor for 1018)

ahh yes i remeber that they even handed out their little stickers
"I <3 Hooters" some mentors didnt find those amusing(others did)

Monster Energy is the best. I drink so much. The team jokes about having them and Mountain Dew sponsor us, even if all they did was supply free drinks.

Krispy Kreme would be pretty awesome sponsor too...

Don't forget 116's sponsor, Dunkin Donuts

I'd just like to say that if you are hosting an event such as an off-season or an FLL tournament, contact Red Bull............there's a good chance that you'll be able to arrange for their "Mobile Energy Team" to drop by.

If any energy drink were to sponsor us, I think I'd pick bawl's. they rock.

But anyway, as far as cool sponsors, we got sponsored by Intuitive surgical, the company that makes the daVinci Surgical robot. They were very cool, because they gave us a tour of the system as well as funding.

I believe the Robo Dawgs were sponsored by Mountain Dew(sry cant remember the #)

ya an energy drink sponser to give free drinks would be expesially helpfull during those long saterday build days.. i know all of you know what im talking about .. the times when ur cutting steel pipe making sparks outside while its snowing. One place I talked to about sponsership was like we cant give yall cash , but we can give yall food ... were like well take it.

Bawls is great. But they sponsor so many LAN parties that i dont know if they could do a FIRST team.

How's the New York Yankees for a cool sponsor?

They've been one of team 395's main sponsors for several years, and we've been honored on their field before a game several times as well.
