Wore my INGO swag to chicago last week...

[Bill B]

I am a history major at school and the American Historical Association meeting was in Chicago last week. The history department paid for several of us to attend, so I figured I'd risk life and limb and descend into the seventh level of communism. I wore my high-speed, low drag INGO hat all three days.
Some of the reactions were hilarious. One lady gave me the evil eye the entire time I was on the train, others would obviously read the hat and their eyes would get big for second. One person of indertiminate sex actually shied away from me in line at Jimmy Johns.
All in all it was pretty funny. Oh, BTW, academics really are totally out of touch with reality....Eisenhower caused the Vietnam war, Reagan injected and imposed false optimism on the country, etc....

@Jedi: aren't you being paid to work instead of busting my xxxx?

 

[LeeStreet]

[CtWest]

Typically INGO is at a table at the Indy 500. Or if you are near NWI when we hold out MEET & SHOOTs a rep from INGO sometimes comes and you can buy from them at that point. The neet MEET & SHOOT will be in MAR 2012.

I think I'll go to the Indy 500 next year. I can see some fine auto racing, and buy INGO swag.

I believe that was a typo for the INDY 1500, a quarterly gun show, next one being this weekend.

 

[CombatRex]

[CtWest]

Yup, that's why there is a big smile emoticon next to the comment.

My hat was $15, I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will be along shortly...

These were the prices at the NOV 2011 event.
Not sure if they have gone up or not.

INGO T-shirts - $20
Embroidered Caps - $15
Condor Caps w/choice of patch $20
Patches - $3
Camber Flags - $1
INGO sticker - ??? price ???

This is QUE who sells the gear on behalf of INGO (he is one of several members that sells it for the site owner). He is wearing the INGO T-Shirt + has the Condor Cap on.

This is what the embroidered cap looks like:

Here is what the INGO sticker looks like

The cap with 2 different patches on it.

and

& last in this pic you can see the "tall glass" that has the INGO text frosted into the glass.

I'm not sure how much these run. At the NOV 2011 event was the first time they were made available. BTW the yellow item inside the glass is a chamber flag.
