Too bad they don’t have the pictures they show some of the fashions.

I know who you’re talking about but I don’t remember the team number. 49something. They had a pit right next to us, 495.

Duct tape had a scholarship this past year. $25,000 to a couple who would make their Prom attire completely out of Duct Tape, actually went to Prom, and took pics to submit. I would have done it if I went to my Prom…

I read somewhere that a college did a study on duct tape. They found out that it couldn’t do what it was made for…Hold ducts together. Go Figure.
