I got big into pin collecting after a cast member have me a set of those "Year of a Million Dreams" Tink pins - I hope I'm remembering the promotion correctly
I was floored by the random gift as a kid and couldn't resist filling my lanyard after that! I got all the VMK pins I could find, and collected mostly Mickey, Donald, and eat hat pins after that. Still hoping to find a Mickey Popsicle pin someday...
