Truman,
I think you must have missed the beginning of this thread. The issue isn't 
about whatever extra awards the ride manager gives. The issue is, "Can a 
ride manager give an award, at entry, to everybody who shows up, INSTEAD of 
a completion award."
I've been to rides who gave a memento of the ride when you entered, but it 
was always in addition to a completion award. It's a nice touch, if it fit's 
in the budget or you can get something donated! It was my understanding from 
the original posts that in this case the "showing up" award was it, except 
for placements. With nothing else to distinguish those who actually 
completed the ride from the ones who just managed to get there.
And, I'm with those who think this should not be the case.
