Doing the Dew, Old School Style
Scroll down for a picture!
The Mountain Dew Armor was created from about 200 limited edition The Hulk Mountain Dew cans that were only out in the summer of 2003. It is made up of about 200 empty cans and held together with baling wire. It has a cardboard backing inside to prevent scratches. We made this because we are very addicted to Mountain Dew, and had nothing else to do that summer.
The first public appearance of the Mountain Dew Armor was at a WWE event at the World Arena in Colorado Springs. We sat in the employee area thanks to tickets from Jeff (The Master Beta Tester). One of the promotions people loved the armor, and called us asking if we wanted to do a promotion with the armor. We loved the idea, and ended up throwing bottles of Mountain Dew to fans every time a team scored in a high school hockey playoff game at the World Arena.
The Mountain Dew Armor also ended up being my senior picture. I had an underground business of selling Mountain Dew at school because only Coca Cola products were sold. I and a couple others had booming business, and it only felt right to have the Mountain Dew Armor be in my senior picture.
In December of 2005 we took the Mountain Dew Armor out to the Citadel Mall in Colorado Springs and handed out free Mountain Dew with a Surpass Hosting flier banded to it. We had a great reception there by everybody who saw it (except for a security guard), and we ended up winning a contest from Surpass Hosting for the video. You can watch the remixed video below. We removed a couple of boring parts and added better music than the original.
The Mountain Dew Armor was also used in the You Stole My Dew video, created by the members of Broken Fork (of which I am a founding member). Watch the You Stole My Dew video below:
And you thought you were addicted to Mountain Dew.

Look in your template for the wp_get_links(); and replace it with just get_links();
