Okay folks. You're my target audience. I'm designing a t-shirt and would like your input. I'll post pics when available, but here's a rough description:
Baseball jersey. On the front picture "HEROES" in that fancy lettering seen on most baseball jerseys with the swoosh underneath. In what looks like writing in crayon "CRAPPY TOWN" in the swoosh. On the back, again in crayon writing, "WASHBURN" and then just for kicks and giggles the number "05" underneath.

Any feedback would be appreciated. I was told today it was too obscure of a reference, but hey . . . we Browncoats are all about the obscure quotes we all love and adore.

I'll agree that non-Browncoats won't get it, even if they've seen the show. Only real fans that remember that scene/line are gonna get it - but then I guess that applies to a lot of t-shirts.
I really do like the idea though but I have to ask why have the town name in crayon? I don't know baseball very well but I have a rough idea of what the shirts look like so why crayon?
Or am I missing some reference that I can't think of?
Also what colours are you planning on? Brown I take it as the main colour but what others?

Crayon only because I was thinking of ... ahem ... uneducated folk like in Jaynestown. No point in it looking nice and neat/tidy if it's a crappy town. Know what I mean?

Not too sure of colors right now, to be honest.

I understand brown might be a desirable color, but that didn't seem a heavy influence in the ep. How about a dusty, ceramic clay mud type of color?

Okay, Rap. Chris is sabotaging my thread! LOL

What do you think of my shirt idea? Forget Chris. He's being distracting. Possibly on purpose.
