April 24, 200521 yr I think PKICentral should make PKI bracelets like the Live Strong bracelets. The could sy "Paramount's Kings Island" It is just an idea, where can you go to get customized bracelets, I have seen schools make them. -Jake
April 24, 200521 yr That would be awesome. They could charge like 2.00 and get whatever you want put on them. Nice idea.
April 24, 200521 yr ok to the first guy great idea!!! for the second post.. well i'm not sure they could make them at the park for you. i do'nt know how they're made.
April 24, 200521 yr They could like have a machine and you come back later in the day and get one.They would make a lot of money off that.
April 24, 200521 yr i think these new bracelets are just fad. the lance armstrong foundation had a great idea, and originally i liked it... but yeah, now there is one for just about everything. they are over rated and there are wayyy to man of them out there... what was an original, eye catching idea has now become nothing more than a meaningless trend. i for one would not be interested in pki bracelets.
April 24, 200521 yr I agree that it would be a good idea, but here is my opinion on it. The Lance Armstrong 'Livestrong" bracelets were created to show your support for cancer research. 100% of all the proceeds went directly into funding ways to cure cancer. All these other companys saw this and started banking in the idea by creating there own band to make some quick cash. Hell, even Eminem has his own wristband if you buy one of his DVD's. I agree with specialk that they are just a fad. If you really want to support the site, buy PKIC clothing here. or simply check out a few of our sponsors whos ads appear on the site.
April 24, 200521 yr I especially like th PKIC thong. Nice! Wish my girlfriend would wear one of those.
April 24, 200521 yr I really like that Bracelet idea. Does PKIC have the Premiuem Cafe Press Store or just the basic?
April 24, 200521 yr I agree, the braclets started out as an awesome idea: to raise money for cancer research. But like almost all good ideas, some idiot has to come a long and spoil it. I saw my sister come home the other day with a green and purple ones on and i read them and they said "Spoiled" and "Princess". The braclets are a great fundraising idea for people who NEED the money.
April 24, 200521 yr Author I found a company tht you can get custom made and you can get 20,50,100,400 packs. -Jake
April 24, 200521 yr My band considering having some braclets done with our names ont hem to sell at shows but I think its an abuse of a good idea.
April 25, 200521 yr I just had some made for my donatos store here is info they are about 1.50 www.reminderbands.com sean
April 25, 200521 yr I am not sure if you guys are thinking about the park doing these, but it would be cool if this site made some. Then we could meet everyone around the park who had one on.
April 25, 200521 yr Author That is kinda what I had in mind. The www.reminderbands.com doesn't work. -Jake
April 25, 200521 yr I am not sure if you guys are thinking about the park doing these, but it would be cool if this site made some. Then we could meet everyone around the park who had one on. We could have those made and put are names on them. Example: www.pkicentral.com "Tubaman"
April 25, 200521 yr I believe the site for the bands is actually http://www.reminderband.com/ Looks like 40 bands for $108 shipped. So the bands would be $2.70, with no profit. If PKIC sold these and wanted a profit (would be crazy not to ) they'd probably be at LEAST $3.00. Just some food for thought.
April 25, 200521 yr Personally I think thats ridiculous. The bracelets were made originally to help give money to charitiable organizations and support the cause of that charity. The knock offs that people just wear for fashion are the worst example of capatilizing on charities and serious issues. I personally think it would be a horrible idea.
April 26, 200521 yr I like tubaman's idea... I've never met anyone on here and would like to... Plus, we can make it so we can choose the color and everything.
April 26, 200521 yr I don't like the idea of capatilizing on a great idea for charity, however we do need some way to identify ourselves in a somewhat discrete manner. I don't like flaunting things, but I'd love to see a PKIC bracelet or something to identify others...I don't, however, want a T-Shirt or thong.
April 26, 200521 yr they only bracelet you will ever see me wear is a live strong or maybe a breast cancer one. I think that all the companies that make the braceletts are just copying off of Lance's idea. Even if all proceeds go to a charity, I still don't really like it. Lance's idea is the best...I mean you see celebs w/ em on but you dont see celebs with any other one on....idk...i guess i just don't like the idea lol...
April 26, 200521 yr I don't like flaunting things, but I'd love to see a PKIC bracelet or something to identify others...I don't, however, want a T-Shirt or thong. I was against wearing website shirts until I joined the staff of this site and decided to support the cause. Now I inherently wear a PKIC shirt to the park whenever I go. It's actually turned out to be kind of cool because a lot of people that I had never met before come up and start talking to me because they recognize the logo.
April 26, 200521 yr They could say that they were raising money for a new coaster as if they dont have it already.
