Freddie Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 Do you mean the lance armstrong bands? They were yellow and had his moto livestrong on then nike made them in random colours like white? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_rocks Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 I'm fairly sure that there for the Tsunami. Not 100% sure though. I assume they work on the same basis as the Lance Armstrong ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 It's from www.makepovertyhistory.org. Why do you need to be given a band to donate to charity though? Just seems like a way for people to go "Look, I've given money to a worthy cause. Yay." Superficial, almost? Meh, it's money to a good cause I suppose, but the whole "band" theme's getting hella old.

UrbanPoet Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 I feel physically sick when I see some f**king scally reject buying one to go with their trendy Topman clothes. There's no awareness, there's no respect, just pure, unadulterated tosser-ness. But hey, that's my opinion... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 I can't say I've ever been subjected to this. In fact, I've never even seen a Livestrong band. I take your point though >_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tipsy Jock Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 Theres millions of livestrong ones here in bangor. but there are huge amounts of sports scientists, climbers, paddlers, mtbers etc so that kinda explains it lol gonna look like a right sheep when iget mine! aw well!

Sam Nichols Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 Just to confirm... Livestrong (Lance Armstrongs Cancer foundation) ONLY come in yellow, any other colour with 'Livestrong' no is fake. The anti bullying bands that come from the BBC are blue. The white bands are for oxfam, they are not directly related to the tsunami, the money is just for oxfam as a charity HOWEVER since all of oxfams money and resources are going to the tsunami... i guess you should still get one for this reason. The pink bands are for breast cancer. Also, dont pay more than about £2 if your looking on ebay. If you pay more than this you are contributing profits to the people selling them, which is sick and wrong. Cheers, sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
