The Story

After a favorite sports team scores a winning point, it’s understandable to want to give out high-fives to your fellow fans. But, what if no one is there to receive your high five? Enter the “high five apparatus” for which U.S. patent number 5356330 was granted to inventor, Albert Cohen. It specifically “allows a user to simulate a ‘high-five’ in celebration of a positive event, thereby providing the user with a convenient outlet for the release of excitement,” according to the 1994 patent description. Simply affix the high-five machine to a wall or set it on a table, and improve hand-eye coordination and mood by giving the plastic hand and stuffed arm (with sleeve color to match your team’s colors) high-fives at your convenience. No friends necessary!

If you’re unsure about sizing, the best way to determine a correct size is to grab an existing favorite t-shirt, lay it flat, and then measure it.
To find the bust size, measure from armpit to armpit. To get the length, measure from neck/shoulder corner intersection to bottom of hem (see illustration). Double the garment width to determine the chest/bust circumference measurement, and you’ll find it will generally fit.
