To sac's point, this is why I think it would be tailor made for Pat or Dave to provide/sponsor (because inevitably someone will break it). Then it's not like some clownface just made it for his team.

I think that the social awkwardness involved in sac or some other fan just walking out of the stands with a strange bespangled object, approaching the coach or captain of the victorious opponent, and saying:

Quote from: sac on December 15, 2016, 04:59:34 PM"Here, here's this... thing I made, go cherish it and pass it on to your next vanquisher"

... has a goofy, bizarre charm all to itself that makes it rather appropriate for such an object.

You'll never get on SportsCenter like that.

So maybe we go with "crowd rushing the floor, whilst a ladder is erected at midcourt for the winning captain to climb and hold aloft the freshly won belt."  It could even be a Werner ladder - or maybe the belt goes out and gets its own sponsorship.

The BeltTM is already beautiful. You can't improve it by crossing it with reality.

Might be time for the weasels to pursue defamation charges as none of these suggestions can do anything but degrade ItsTM gloriousness

These suggestions are also stripping The BeltTM of its agency in the matter. It is the BeltTM who chooses the winner, after all, not the other way around.

Sorry, but I'm just fixated on the idea of sac hesitantly sidling into the postgame huddle of some team that's just beaten Hope and saying to them, "Here, here's this... thing I made, go cherish it and pass it on to your next vanquisher." It sounds like something out of an Albert Brooks movie.

In 2013 The BeltTm was passed around the MIAC 11 times.
I'm not sure, but there's gotta be Country-Western song about that...

The BeltTM does not go to Sportscenter. Sportscenter asks to go to the BeltTM and itTM decides thumbs up or thumbs down to those charlatans.

Just thought that I would correct that for you...   ;)

The trademark ruins the pun, though.
