Title: How bout some new BYOAC hats?
Post by: LPZ on August 15, 2007, 12:18:16 am

It's been awhile since I saw some discussion about some new hats for our group.  We have the tokens every year, but is anyone interested in some hats?  As a matter of fact, maybe some shirts.......what's everyone's opinion?

lets see...

We are vintage gamers after all. Hats to cover our bald spots now, perhaps in a few years we can group buy some Viagra, and after that BYOAC will mean - Build Your Own Arcade Coffin. I plan on being buried in a Pac-man game, while my wife will have a Mrs. Pacman (yes, Mrs.). I may make hers a cabaret though. If she doesn't fit in it, she'll have to find somewhere else to get buried.

I love my BYOAC shirt (although it is rather worn now) and it appears that you can still order them on Zazzle:

The BYOAC hats were awesome.  I'm definitely glad I bought it..

(Although, I haven't been wearing it as much since I got my Colts SuperBowl hat...)

I'd be up for a t-shirt or hat (depending on design/style, of course)

I'd to see hats with the BYOAC medalion like Pinewood_Princess made for MameMaster.

Yeah, the Atomic BYOAC design was what I first tried to run on the hats. The embroiderers (2) told me it was too intricate... that I'd have to have them mass produced in China. But then they'd have been made of lead so I decided against it.

I think we should have something that makes as big of a statement as this one..
