Gimp Dave and I came up with a fun idea to give away an award this year that the pyro crew will pass to someone new each year.

Are shows are separate so we built one each for each crew. The Golden Tubes of Shame they must display in their man cave or garage for the next year.

Something Fun, but serious as a reminder!!

The plaque says:

Pyro Einstein Award

“Tube of shame without you we would forget how dangerous this is”

Products used:

2 1/2” HDPE
1/2 CDX Rack Building Plywood to give it the rack feel and look.

So this is like a Darwin award for a pyro, right?

Correct Rick

Our Top runner for this year is a guy that put 2 mortars in 1 tube on top of each other.

Luckily we have an assembly line you have seen and the last person does an inspection and safety check.

I’ll let Gimp Dave tell his story of his top runner for this year award, his is funny!!

So does the winner have to still be living to accept the award? :confused:

Well, I guess technically NO!! You can win dead or live … LOL

The funny part of all of it is this pyro (husband and wife Pyro you got to meet) is always micromanaging everybody about safety which makes it great!!

His in the running at the moment … don’t think anyone will top that as safe as our guys are

It’s a good reminder for everyone and funny at the same time!

EVERYONE BE SAFE OUT THERE

I had a boss way back in my Air Force days that told me never trust an "expert" because an ex is a has-been and a spurt is a little jerk.

Guess your pyro award nominee proves that theory.
