Which giveaway from a team did you see the most?
I’m gonna have to vote for my teams Black tote bags that had 293 and BMS on them. I saw people all over nats carrying those around, at six flags, and even in the hotel!!
I saw a lot of white frisbees, although most of the time I couldn’t tell if they were from my team (226) or RAGE
Yeah, I think it was your guys. I have one of yours right now. The hand out I saw the most were the frisbees and the VCU hacky sacks.
Well, for me, those colored boxes. Man, folding so many of those gets so tiring for fingers, man… Should just slept on the plane and dodged responsibility. 
Well, I saw a lot of frisbees, and also the huskies’ thing (but that might have been because it was on my wrist the whole time…)
Those stupid little airplanes that 245 Adams gave away and everyone was throwing around all over the place!:mad:
Every one that crashed into me was immediately destroyed!
well when things came down from the stands into the playing area, not neccessaryily the field but also the staging and ref/volunteers area, they were not suppossed (sp?) to go back into the stands but placed in “storage” under the stands. After two days of volunteering i can say many steel armadilos balls and also my teams koosh arrows were there along with tons of mini frisbees from 226 and [edit] race [/edit]! there were also a few blow-up airplanes. most of the items were attempted to be returned to the teams pits, but i dont know how much went to the pits or just back in the stands from angry viewers.

I saw tons of Thunder Chickens water bottles. I think I have like 5 of them (and also one from last year). I also have a couple of the Techno Ticks stress balls. And the T-Rx 145 things that looked kinda like backstage passes were everywhere. Did anybody notice the stress ball computers that my team (662) was handing out?
yeah halon actually there is one that is sitting in my FIRST bin that i got from utc, i put all my stuff in those type of bins and hey i got a nice one from utc regional so i put everything in there, and thats where the stress computer is.

I saw a lot of our (818’s) beach balls. They were everywhere - we started throwing them into the crowd in Curie, and they made their way to all four of the division sections at Reliant, the pits, Six Flags…I saw them everywhere that a FIRST team was. Then again, I was looking for them…
i saw aloot of our frisbees around, also alot of our flags.
OK official word from RAGE team 173. As far as I know we gave out giant Pixie Stix, free hugs, buttons, and twizzlers… and in checking with a few other team mates. Wait… yes… that is right we did not give out any frisbees. I believe that was team RACE.

Yeah I was wondering about that… thanks for clearing it up, from now on remeber RACE too guys!
I saw many thunder chicken water bottles (but I didn’t get one :0( ), I didn’t see any VCU hackey sacks, and the most I saw were white frisbees…
thunderchickens propaganda!
lemme see…you guys gave out buttons, buttons with lights, water bottles, little rubber chickens, and tatoos. Great job on dristributing all that izzle, I think I had all of them at one point but I lost half my robotics bling bling in Texas…aww poo…
i know they wernt the most given away but i know the team 250 soap, molded but 2 students were very popular, only about 3 hours after we opened the 2 boxes of the soap, it was about 85% gone. within an hour after pits opened on saturday it was gone, i know we only had like 400-500 bars, it went very fast for being a not so easily keepable item. it melted in the heat quite quickly.

we do loan ours out from time to time… anyone want one of them?? hehe, just kidding, we like our engineers. and yeah! 250 soap was funny… last year i gave 3 to one teammate… ppl from my team, and friends/alumni of our team know who i’m talking about… it was easy to point out 45’s and our glow thingys- 45 had the bracelets, we had stick on button things…and our clothespins were funny to see people walking around with those on their backs, unnoticed usually…
thunderchickens had so much stuff it got annoying… we gave out some of their water bottles to the lego league kids… but the nerf flingy things, beach balls, and 245’s planes were sooo much fun during the awards ceremony!!! hehehehe!
