That person is still in the grammar school mentality where everyone is a winner. Did you lose? Here have a first place ribbon anyway. I bet they think the loser still gets to go to Washington and be a congressman.

My friend just had a field day with her students(7th grade) and they weren't allowed to compete against each other. They all won, they all were the best at everything!

This is the world that participation trophies has created for us. I would have thrown a participation trophy away if they'd tried to hand me that shit.

I'm sick of people complaining about participation trophies. They just make the losers feel worse. It's like getting a nickel as a tip. You'd rather get nothing than such an insulting thing.
