Since Defcon 16, the prize includes Black Badge, which gives lifetime unlimited entry to all future Defcons.

Famous quotes containing the word prizes:
“She prizes not such trifles as these are.
The gifts she looks from me are packed and locked
Up in my heart, which I have given already,
But not delivered.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
