Default HD Challenge Coins

Does anyone ever use them or has anyone been challenged? I just did the factory tour in KC and picked up a pair for me and my brother. We're both former Marines and understand the tradition. Since we're on opposite coasts I thought it would be fun to get them and if/when we get the chance to ride together we'll challenge each other to see who forgot theirs.

Has anyone else seen them used?

These are the two I picked up. I got two of the red/white/blue for me and my brother and the pink for my wife.

If they can't be used at the local water hole for a beer or a bar pie what good are they ?

Nope. I know a lot of riders are vets but I like to leave work related customs and courtesies at work.
