As a former MAINEiac, I can speak with some authority on this issue. Zaps were issued to flyers whenever we wanted them. We'd take them everywhere with the goal being to put them in obscure places. Every non-MAINEiac I ever met has had something to say about "those damned stickers". I don't think they issue as many these days... Thought I heard that crew had to buy them now. But the tradition is strong.

By the way... The lobster bake still happens every summer. It's mostly a reunion and definitely not as legendary as it once was, but it still happens.
