The wood used for the award was cut from a piece of discarded fence hand-picked by Draco for its gnarled appearance and prominent knot, the intent being to find the ugliest piece of wood possible.

The Play Button was one of the many props on the set damaged by [[Hurricane Harvey]] in 2017 and perhaps received the worst of the storm as it became heavily water damaged. Draco kept the prop and hung it back up when the set was rebuilt and stated that the damaged version of the prop was "even funnier" than the original because it looks worse and the whole point of the award was for it to look like a piece of junk.
