skyrider 0 #26 November 30, 2010 My son has so many trophies, we had to break them up...first and seconds for riding, are now in our living room, first second and thirds for Martial arts/riding in the hallway, baseball trophies ,and lower martial arts awards in his bedroom... We love it when they give out medals instead! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boinky 0 #28 November 30, 2010 That's great for your son! I guess it's true....you always want what you don't have. I have a handful of medals...but want a trophy.

BobMoore 0 #33 November 30, 2010 I once won Employee Of The Year at work, along with EVERY single other employee. Earlier that year we went through a huge economic slump and we all were put on a four day work week, with a 20% cut in pay. Management seriously thought if we all got little trophys with Employee Of The Year written on it we would forget the sacrifice. I also got a bronze 3rd place medal in 10-way at a regional competition. It was a pick-up team and there were only three teams competing in 10-way, but I had that hanging from the rear-view mirror in my car for years."For you see, an airplane is an airplane.

mutumbo 0 #35 November 30, 2010 Yeah once you fall a few times from height you learn damn fast what works and what dosent. That or you just don make it very far in said sport. Ive taken many hard falls while skating. Nothin like realising mid way through a trick that youre fucked then acually having time to think about how much this is going to suck. And maybe do somethig to make it suck less. HahaThanatos340(on landing rounds)-- Landing procedure: Hand all the way up, Feet and Knees Together and PLF soon as you get bitch slapped by a planet.

Southern_Man 0 #46 November 30, 2010 Lots of running trophies. Some of them with actual meaning from placing in states, etc. and some for age group placings at small po-dunk road races. I also have some from swimming when I was growing up. Most of said trophies are still at my folks house, I don't get anything out of displaying them."What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

skybytch 273 #47 November 30, 2010 I got a trophy for accuracy once. Which is funny, because I didn't hit the peas once. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #48 November 30, 2010 I was a swimmer for 11 years growing up and earned quite a few trophies. I ended up tearing off all the name plates and ditching most of them. One of them was the "teammate award". Basically, it's an award for being cheerful and nice.
