What do you do with your badges?

[GregWebster]

Those of you who attend Pokemon Leagues and get the badges, what do you do with them? I tried putting them on a backpack, but had 2/8 fall off. Luckily I saw them fall both times, but now don't trust them to stay on. What do ya'll do? Is there a way to make them stay on better?

[patthemanvan]

i keep mine on my back pack, but everytime i open it i push the backs of them to make sure they're on tight

[i like burdn of a day]

i put them on my cardboard boxes and deck boxes

Hats! Put them on your pokemon playing hat.

Wouldn't that hurt your head? Or do you put them on the bill?

[BJJ763]

I just keep them. Somewhere. Though we took many of them and put them into a section of corkboard and put the corkboard into an acrylic picture holder for one of my youngest's Cub Scout projects.

[Absoltrainer]

I stepped on a pokeball one today while cleaning. I hurt.

lol

I keep mine in a box because they kept breaking off my binder

[Lawman]

@Greg: The kids wear them in their hats. They have a bit more room, I guess. As long as no one mashes the top down, they are OK.

I've got a White&Nerdy winter hat thing, and I keep my badges on there. I had never tried to wear it while it was decked out with em' until the recent Cities. Needless to say, the back ends of the pins got quite annoying. If you want to wear them around, the bills of hats are best, as someone else said. You could always make a sash or somewhat. I know one of the guys at my League has a small case with foam on the inside he keeps his badges in, it's kind of cool, maybe try doing that.

[EeveeLover]

I have all the badges that I have received over the years on a cork board. Only a select few are on my deck bag.

I used to carry them all, but between running out of room on the bag and having them pop off or get torn off, I decided that it was not worth carrying them all.

QFT! Only 6 air holes, though...:frown:

AS long as a certain LL's little brother doesn't walk up behind you and wam you in the back of the head, you should be fine.

Benny, that hurts!

[homeofmew]

I keep mine on one of my dressers, I have way too many to wear them all.

I haven't updated my pics so I don't have the pics of the new badges yet lol..

[Mew*]

I used to just have them on a bulletin board with the backs in a bag somewhere else.

[Ryu99]

mine are all stashed in a tin at the mo im trying to source a badge folder - i saw a seller at a carboot with one and it was cool nice hard pages for the badges then a protective sheet over them

[Dark Ninja]

What do I do with badges?... Lose them.

[TheDarkTwins]

I keep them sealed. I have almost every pin (not just Pokemon) in a tupperware container. However, It just recently got filled (mind you I mean a BIG one not a small one) so I have to start a SECOND container which is pretty insane.

[boastersupreme270]

i put them on my playing mat surprised no 1 said that already

[machampX]

[ashinto]

i usually put them on my top shelf.

[Jaeger]

I walk up to a young player tell him he's beening really improving, hand it to him and walk off.

You win the thread. That's so nice I can't even believe it! Little kids freak out every time they get to the end of their cards.

[gashmoigidy]

I throw mine in my closet. That's it. Nuff said.

[The Fish King]

I put all of the badges I've earned (all the way back to the first year of Pokemon League in the WotC days) on the bach towel from Worlds '07. I hung it on my wall. It looks really nice.

[ilikegengar]

I make pin banners! Check out my photo (http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h202/nyarmstrong/camera%20test/pinbanner.jpg).

I like the Fish King's idea too. You could hang a pokemon t-shirt on the wall or a hanger and put pins on the shirt until it's covered.

I make pin banners all the time for giveaways. If you'll be at Nats or Worlds let me know and I'll make you one. Or you can make your own with a bandanna.

Ya I miss doing that to you... even a pat on the head hurts....



So I take it I am the only one who eats them then.......
I have 3 on my prof. lab coat.... and the rest I have put up in a binder.

[Jason]

I give mine to well deserved kids. :)

[Kabutops141]

I keep mine on a piece of green felt. Nothing special, but it keeps them all together, and helps organize them into groups. (City, Leauge, PR, WINNER, etc.) It's also kinda cool for display.

[Lakak]

I give them to people if they can manage to beat my 6 various animals I have trained to fight on the school playground.

[secretsof2113]

I have one of those containers with the foam insert for decks. I have all of my badges on the outside of that. And then my extra ones are in a card tin at the moment.

[Dunjohn]

I have about five hundred of the badges from the very first league (not certain how I ended up with them, the shop guy must've given me them after the league died down). I used to use them as creature tokens in Magic: the Gathering. Now that Magic prints its own tokens, they're in a big bag in the attic, I think.

[Croatian_Nidoking]

I have a few lanyards that I display my badges on. I like to wear them at big tournaments. It shows that I'm having fun.

[amphy#1]

I put a few on my hat, on my league neck strap and my bag. Sometimes I look like a pincushon with all those pins on me.

[yoyofsho16]

i put them on my playing mat surprised no 1 said that already

Rats, you stole my idea!

[headsrcool]

I just put them in a bucket from the San Diego Zoo. It's overfilling.

[toxictaipan]

I put 6 on My Hat, the special ones I want to showcase.

The rest just go on my backpack that I lug around any and all Pokemon events...

[lady_middnite]

i put mine on one of my boxes of commons and uncommons i just keep making rows... i dont know what i will do wen i run out of room

i have a friend who puts them on his boony hat and is making one big row of them and then will start on a second row ... that hat is goin to get heavy huh

[TheDoctor]

I put them on my binder, right now I only have a CC badge, but I'll be getting my water badge this Wednesday.

I was putting them on my tins, where the plastic part was, you know what I'm talking about right?
