Lime Green Mickeys....or their modern equivalent

[Cuchman]

Hi Folks,
Are lime green mickeys still a thing? As in, is that still a way to communicate to other DIS-ers that we are DIS-ers?
I still have a few kicking around
Or is there some new-dangled equivalent that I have missed?
Going in a week and doing last minute prep.

Love all y'all.

I think that those who have been on these boards for a while would know what they are for, but they seem to have lost their popularity in the last few years.

I haven't heard anyone talk about them in quite a long time.

I asked this same question about a month ago and got mixed reactions about it. I think there are still some people who wear/ display the lime green mickey heads but they are not as popular as they once were. That being said, I cut a mickey head out of a large lime green paint chip and will wear it on my backpack on my next trip!

We use them around Fort Wilderness to label our sites and let other campers know who we are so they stop and visit. Not as many as there used to be but some of us still have them up. Haven't seen any in the parks in quite a while though.

Awesome! Doing it now! Even adding my board name!

OMG! I remember there used to be a run on the paint chips for these! I had completely forgotten...

As I was cleaning out an unused closet - I came upon a large baggie of them! I'm so excited!

I was looking through my drawers at work today and found a ziploc bag of different colored Mickeys. I have a few limes. Maybe I will wear one during our Nov trip.

I drew this up in ArtStudio tonight. I'm going to print it and laminate it.

Not sure if PPs are aware that you can no longer get those paint chips at Home Depot. I assume that was what ended the practice.

I've been here on and off the past 2 years and haven't heard of it, don't recall seeing these in the parks but then I wasn't looking

Home depot does carry some rather large paint chips. Grab a lime green and make your own mickey head. That is what i did (my printer is being uncooperative so i couldnt use the image that robo posted).
