The CTR shirts that copied the CK logo were pretty bad. I saw something on a guy the other day that could be worse, although I'm not sure. He was wearing a navy blue shirt with "Old Nauvoo" across the chest and was supposed to look exactly like an Old Navy shirt. What possesses people to wear this crap?

My friend was the guy that did many of these back in the 90s....CTR (in the CK script), Mission (in Massimo script), Hard Work All Day (Hard Rock Cafe script), etc.
He sold the company and did ok in the process.
Even he agrees that the shirts are stupid.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

Maybe it was from "County Seat" back in the early 1990s, and you misread, "Old Nuovoo".Originally posted by Color Me Badd Fan View PostPrepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

My oldest brother is just over eight years older than me. He graduated from high school in 1986. He came home for Christmas from BYU and was sporting a sweatshirt that said "Enjoy Brigham Young University" in the Coca-Cola script. For some reason, I've forgotten about this until just now. I need to harass the hell out of him for doing this.Part of it is based on academic grounds.

They used to sell these at the BYU bookstore.
Ones that I remember from Freshman Year (late 80s)
Brigham Young's Excellent University (with neon writing and Brigham young wearing ray bans)
Stripling Warriors - Mamas Boys
Repent (Tide detergent logo) - Tough on Sins
and one that could not buy on campus:
BYU Coed Naked Lacrosse - Rough Tough & in the Buff
One interesting one that was sold on campus briefly, but then quickly banned:
Go to Provo or Go to Hell.
You can still buy versions of this shirt but the one from back in the day actually was sold at the BYU Bookstore for something that was called "Founders Day." It was a white t-shirt and says BYUSA or something like that on the back. I still have one in my closet.
I actually found a pic of this radness!
You can find several of the others here

How about instead of "Oakley: Thermonuclear Protection" they had "Garments: Random Boat Fire Protection?" Would this sell?Part of it is based on academic grounds.

A guy in my ward growing up, ran a tee-shirt silk screening company out of his garage. I remember he used to sell a shirt that read, "Keep On Tractin...", based on this:

funny.... they never tried to copy the most popular t-shirt from when I was in high school"Be a philosopher. A man can compromise to gain a point.

I can't find a picture, but I remember a nike swoosh that turned into the trumpet blowing Moroni."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. UchtdorfComment

I got a shirt from my kids with an old geezer on it , decked out in Arnold Freiberg loincloth, that says "Stripling Warrior -Retired".Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.

My favorite one of these had a bunch of big lobsters dancing on top of a piano. The tagline: "It's better to have lobsters on your piano than crabs on your organ."Originally posted by Mormon Red Death View PostKids in general these days seem more socially retarded...
None of them date. They hang out. They text. They sit in the same car or room and don't say a word...they text. Then, they go home and whack off to internet porn.
I think that's the sad truth about why these kids are retards.
