Odd, it's the Desire chip. Most meetings offer it as the first chip they pass out. They say something like "Our first chip is the desire chip. It is an outward sign of an inward commitment to stay sober for 24 hours/one day at a time. Would anyone like a desire chip?" At which point, you stand up and walk up to get it while everyone goes nuts clapping. I did that several times, had to "turn in a wet one for a dry one" on several occasions. But I kept going back and I finally got my first 24 hours. I think the desire chip is my favorite to give out now. I love to watch people get sober.
