Vikings Badge — Forum Archive

This has probably been asked a lot but where can I get hold of a Vikings badge?

Is there some sort of initiation ceremony involving Pernod and Orange Juice (the Order's favourite drink in the 80s apparently)? :-)

Cheers!

They were very kindly produced by Al J, Mike and a few others and handed out free at pre gig meet ups. The idea was that if you were a regular gig/event goer and therefore accepted as a 'Viking' then you'd be approached and given a badge to commemorate the event. Not sure if any more are available, but you'd have to directly ask Al. I was thinking it might be nice to produce a job lot of maybe the Fac383 badge and sell them in the NOOL shop - profits go to cover Tim's losses for NOOL day and any extras go to the charities nominated for the day.

How about it Nic? :beer:

Ah, thanks Chris.

I haven't posted on here for ages but remember Al from his gig jetsetting and our mutual love of ACR :-)

I'll drop him a line and grovel a bit!

Also Shuggy baby if you're reading, I lost my favourite one in October - the double circle one with the skull and crossbone.

I'm probably being really ignorant here but what's the 383 badge? :scratch:

28 Jun 2007, 13:03

Copy of the original FAC51 prefect badge in yellow and blue. But we changed it to FAC383 and gave them to people that we met at gigs.

Which was nice.

I get a discount at my local sandwich shop when I wear mine 'cos the bloke that runs it is a fan :shades:
