In the past, (analog days), lanyards and lanyards for press passes were readily exchanged between photographers mainly at sporting venues but not limited to that subject.
Although I never collected them, some really wild lanyards came and went my way along with several stories about where photographers got them.
Here's a question for everyone, how come that is not done anymore?
Over the years I received many and just threw them in a corner box until I decided to clean up. I grabbed about 100 or so and just before I threw them out I got an idea. I asked the AD from a local HS if he could use them. Interestingly, it was just before a state tournament was to be held at their school. They were very happy to get them and it saved them a few bucks.
