The Magic Gauntlet

The Magic Gauntlet was forged in 1742 by the 16 year old George Washington. He gave it to a wizard who filled the gauntlet with pure magic. George Washington later used this gauntlet in the French Indian War and was capable on turning the tides of a battle simply by snapping his fingers. He used the gauntlet for years until he dropped into a well. Years of searching for the gauntlet provided no information of where it could be. After 22 years had passed, George Washington was attacked one day while riding his horse. He was surprised to find that his own gauntlet had attacked him! The gauntlet now had a mind of it's own and told George that he would be eliminated along with the rest of America! But George Washington came prepared with his favorite sword and fought the gauntlet in the pitch black night. George eventually stepped on the Gauntlet and stabbed it twice. The Gauntlet's power faded and it was questioned on where it should be sent. George Washington gave the idea of making The Hall of Awesome. The Gauntlet was put there as the museum's very first item. It remains in the museum to this day.
