Best Use of Labels
“Hungragator” (The Alligator)
1,130 cans

The "Hungragator" is taking care of hunger around America. Although he would love to eat the 10-feet worth of canned goods himself, he would like to offer the cans to the hungry mouths of hard working people around the U.S. The meaning behind the alligator is to make an example for the community: to live like an alligator, to stay calm through hard times, to refrain from unfortunate deeds and wait for the right moment to catch prey—the opportunity that is to come.

Team Captain: Luis Torres
Team Members: Anto Adam, Julian Liang, Leo Micolta, Katherine Park

Special Thanks to: HMC, Ontario; Can Sponsor
We want to thank David Castro for helping us move the cans in his truck.  Ralphs Grocery Store; Mr. Brian Phillips, who was in charge of ordering the cans and making sure we got them on time.
