Yes. Haha.

Which was 2005. TBC had the first shots of pros with crowbars (Jon at least), and the shots from that season were in the ad campaign for the 2005/2006 season. That's when I first saw them.

Haha I know exactly what you mean. I got A-frames that year instead of crowbars because I thought the crowbars were just weird. Now I own two pair.
