Hey! Don't knock it...I got one of the "free dinner" certificates that were attached to those. I couldn't go home that year for Thanksgiving, so that paid for my Thanksgiving Dinner!

All that was missing was Loni Anderson and Howard Hesseman.

Hint: It doesn't help if we have to google those people.

You are culturally deprived (or in some cases, depraved) if you haven't seen the "WKRP in Cincinnati" Thanksgiving Turkey Drop episode.

You can watch the episode on hulu. For everything to make sense you need the background info from the show.

That was about the time color was invented.

Of course nothing important happened before 1980.

Quote:There's licensing fees that have to be paid to the school.

$150 application fee + 10% royalty

Anyone who uses the name or marks of Western Michigan University for a commercial purpose. Manufacturers of products with WMU marks on them are required to pay an 10% royalty on the wholesale price of the item. WMU trademark use in advertisements, motion pictures, etc. also requires licensing approval and a payment of a licensing fee. License applications are available from Licensing Resource Group or by phone at (616) 395-0676.

Wow...I feel like you know what you are talking about.

Ok, so the 50k profit gets knocked down to 45K.

I'm still in...

I'm still in too EA. Can't we sell them to WMU so they can include them as giveaways if people donate over $200 to the Gary Fund or something?
