MTAC Infinity Presenter Badge

Badge-A-Minit
Lucas Leverett of MTAC in Tennessee entered this button, which was one of 10 different 3" button designs used to designate various type of participants or personnel at the yearly convention for fans of Japanese animation (Anime). Buttons have been used since their second event in 2001.

"Our event now brings in almost 4000 attendees, and we had to "order out" for the badges they get. But we still hand-make the 3" badges each year," Lucas said. He notes that all of MTAC's badges are considered collectible items and that they further the enthusiasm of the volunteers and visitors!
