Contests, Swag and the like at SAS GF 2017

[ptimusk]

It seems quiet concering contests and the like. How are things looking this year? Are Apple watches and Epiphone guitars still hot?

[ChrisHemedinger]

@ptimusk You are eager!  Yes, we've got some fun stuff planned.  Announcements coming soon.

What's NOT on the giveaway list: my Star Trek TNG Pez dispenser collection.  But...it does make an appearance in a future post.  Stay tuned.

I love it! But where's Wesley?

[ChrisHemedinger]

Oh @nancy88wilson, your nerdiness is showing.

Hey- I resemble that remark. 😉

[louisehadden]

Wow, I have one of those collections too! Live long and prosper!

[louisehadden]

So, my collection of TNG Pez dispensers is still at home in its original packaging 😉 - but, I do have a growing habitat for Metacoda Koalas and Oracle dancers (plus a few other SAS conference tchotchkes) keeping warm on my CPU.  I have a definite need for some SAS community swag!  Qapla'

@louisehadden I busted mine out just to film this video.  Yes, it was special edition.  1 of 200,000 made.  I figured that #SASGF was a more worthy cause than an eBay sale, someday.

And just to close the loop here, we have posted the announcements about SAS Support Communities swag.  Check it out, and please enjoy the short video that my team built to "model" the various swag uses.

@ChrisHemedinger 40-43 sec - brilliant video!

Excited for the new swag!
