I got the idea for a Stupid Trick Contest sometime around 2001. Maybe even before that, but 2001 was the first time I really wanted to actually *have* an STC. At the Chicago Crew meets we used to joke about dumb tricks and show each other the stupidest tricks we could think of. I thought it would be really fun to have a contest to see who could do the dumbest tricks.
I had originally planned on holding an STC at Nationals in 2001. That was the first year of the AAA Throwdown (which I also made a video of). I figured we could have the STC right after that, but not everyone was there and some people went to do other things so I decided to wait. A little bit later Cappy showed me some really funny stupid tricks, so I really wanted to have the STC then. I went to see if people were interested, but by the time I got back a bunch of the people had gone to Denny's to eat! So it didn't happen that year...or any other year after that, until 2004 when I finally got everyone to do it. Unfortunately it was pretty late and a bunch of people had gone back to the hotel, but it was still tons of fun.
I wrote a whole lot of info about this video, please see the info page here:
