    The Famed 'Pizza Shock' Hats

    These awesome caps, originally given away in Japan as a promotion for KEY, were given away to two lucky winners for our KEY contest. Chris Heilman and Bum-Ho Kang chose the caps, and Matt Dovalos chose two KEY videos instead.


    The entire KEY series is now available on video in the U.S., so we're no longer giving away weekly prizes. We thank everyone who signed up, however, and we'll update this site in the future if there is any more news from the world of KEY. Thanks for watching!

    Update 11/98 -- Key is coming to television! KTEH-54 on San Jose, a PBS station, is playing the entire series at 10:00 P.M. on Sunday nights starting November 15.
