In all seriousness, the idea of bright or florescent shirts (like a sports team gives out) would really work if Net54 members actually wore them. Maybe Leon can get a sponsor for those. The front would say "Net54" and the back would be advertising for an auction company.

I have an idea for a sponsor for the T-shirts for this year's show, one with potential practical utility for certain personages in the Hobby:

Good point. A bail bondsman could make out like a Mastro principle if he passed out business cards at the National.

Maybe instead of wearing bright T-shirts, Net54 members could dress up as their favorite ballplayers or sports figures. I know that at Comic-Con, many attendees wear costumes of their favorite characters. So instead of the Green Lantern and Chewbacca walking around the Baltimore Convention Center, it could be Ty Cobb and George Steinbrenner (condolences to the Steinbrenner family, the Yankees and Major League Baseball, by the way).

Everyone could post in a thread who they plan to be, then we could create a "roster" that could be used to identify members. Now, who wants to be Hal Chase? I've got dibs on Mary Pickford.

I was thinking of a contest trying to guess the date when the first pin shows up on the B/S/T. Or eBay.

That pin will be my favorite alltime possession.

Here's what I think on this subject. Shirts are tough, especially if it's hot out. I know, personally, I just can't wear the same T-shirt more than 3 days in a row. Costumes seems a little over the top for me, but that's just me.

I was thinking...


HATS!

I claim Rob D! Anyone have a snazzy looking pair of glasses laying around to help with the costume?

Man, I'm going to have to really get busy to reach 500!!
Wish I could make it again this year but it doesn't look like it's going to work out. Everyone have a good time.

Some day ... somewhere ... I will be sitting in some random meeting and burst out giggling at a totally inappropriate moment because I thought of this post. Probably this week, I'm guessing.

HAH!

Sorry I can't make National this year. I will go from sorry to distraught if I miss out on a neon T-shirt.
