pic: Vintage FIRST



I think my Shasta water is going on 15 years old. Anyone still have theirs?

Yes. Both styles. I’m not one to be beaten in a swag war. :slight_smile:

Think my family has a bottle or two (empty) around.

I think I may still have an empty bottle. But I also have a FIRST Frenzy 5-point ball autographed by Lavery. And a popped 2X ball somewhere too. That will win quite a few swag wars these days!

Same…

My favorite recently-rediscovered piece is my Epcot badge (with venue map on the back!)

My water bottle is sitting in the fridge next to a 10 year old can of Natty Light.

Got a can of Crystal Pepsi somewhere there too?

(crystal pepsi for sale | eBay)

I saw one of our mentors drinking out of one either last season or before. I had no idea FIRST had branded bottles before. Hope it was refilled, and the water wasn’t vintage too.

I still have a floppy from 99.

We had enough to use as a makeshift bed for all nighters in the shop.

I don’t know what happened to my water bottles, but I have a 5pt, 10pt and 2x ball. I forget if it was the 10 pt or 5pt ball that popped in my recent move, but the 2x is still intact! I also have a red tetra that is broken, a blue vision tetra in decent shape, a 2003 tote, a red and blue poof ball from Einstein in 2006. It was amazing how many pieces of robots I had tucked away in my FIRST drawer that I had forgotten about all these years until I moved.

I also have a pair of MOE sticks from the days when they had the “Where in the world is MOE?” competition. I won like 6 pair, but only have 1 left. Granted, I still have the buttons to prove I won them.

Whatever you do, don’t search for videos of LA Beast drinking Crystal Pepsi…I did that several months ago. (This is your fair warning)

Had to dust this off…

I have a bottle of Orbitz in my fridge right now.

I took an unopened bottle of FIRST Water from Westwind when I visited there before Kickoff as a “President’s Circle” representative of the TechnoKats. I was forced to abandon the water at airport security before the flight home. At the end of the season, the student I was accompanying on that trip somehow obtained a bag of four full bottles for me. I think they’re still in the bag.

I have one on a bookshelf at home. The little phleghmballs are still right where they settled when I put it on the shelf ten years ago.

I also have a bottle of “PinEapPle bAnana cherRy coConUt” Orbitz stashed in my desk at work, in case something happens to the one at home. It has been in my possession since the Klingon Language Institute’s “great meeting” in 1997 (sponsored in part by Clearly Canadian).
