The BOMB Squad wanted it and got it. And we know you want it, and want to help you get it.
All along we knew there were a whole lot of bubblegum blowers and very little fame and glory to go around. It didn’t seem fair. It didn’t seem right. BOMB Squad Heroes knew what it was like to get it and also what it was like when they didn’t get it. And they want to see you get some.
It used to be that you had to either make it all the way to the top and break either Suzy’s or Joyce’s record or win a big contest. But we’ve seen how often that happens (never, at the time this is written). Or that you had to win a big contest which has a lot of things that could mess you up. You had to be the right age. You had to be able to make it to the contest, which may not have been held near where you were. The contests were held only very rarely. And they are at times poorly advertised. It was often very difficult to just get into a contest, let alone win it, which often meant that perhaps the very best bubblegum blowers weren’t even entered. And then, even if you won, fame was usually here today and gone tomorrow.
The BOMB Squad says that there has got to be more opportunity in bubblegum blowing than that, and we want to make it happen!
So what can you do to get your own piece of the action?
First of all, realize it’s a long term project. None of the Heroes, like stars of other sports, did what they did in a day. It took them a long time, and it will likely be that way for you too, so expect it, and don’t be disappointed if it doesn’t happen right away.
Second, be involved with what we do. Watch and be interested in what we do. Study the Heros and listen to their stories and suggestions. Think to yourself “how can I do that better” and imagine yourself doing it. Think of ways the BOMB Squad can be a better organization and make suggestions. Participate!
Third, set your sights on bubblegum bubble blowing improvement. Read the information on Coach Hartwell’s website. Understand that you won’t be able to blow the biggest right away, but if you keep hammering away at it then you have a good chance of blowing those bubbles. And who knows, you just might surprise yourself, it just might come along a lot faster than you think.
Fourth, always go for GUMpetetion. Get friends involved, because it’s funner to do it with them around. GUMpete in The fabulous BUBBLEGUM WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP. This is the first BOMBlast in the battle to create bubble gum’s future, and it’s your chance to help take the lead in it. This is your chance to make your name in bubblegum, to show that you belong up there with the greats. Go for the glory. Go for your chance to become the world champion of bubblegum blowing!
We want you to experience what it means to be known as one of the greatest bubblegum bubble blowers.
