Shirt.Woot

Bring this shirt back! I didn't get the chance to buy it!

or maybe not. i need to save money, and it's not my favorite shirt ever....

from the looks of SDS "devil went down to georgia" is def in 4th. not waffling in and out tied for third like it was all day wednesday. on thursday people came out en masse to say that they like kung fu and little bunny foofoo better.

personally, "devil" was my favorite by far, and i am way surprised that "the lime in the coconut" smoked all the other entries so handily. oh well.

The shirt was designed on navy in the derby...the shirt templates provided by woot for the derby show the navy as lighter than it really is. There is no shirt color that would really look like this:



The next blue would be royal, which would be really bright. Example:

Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are always derby winners, regardless of the date. Gonna be a few more years before March 14 lands on a daily day, so unless they have a PI derby theme the week before March 14, I wouldn't expect much from woot. l o l

yep... that's how we're able to sell some of the winning shirts as well as dailies. So if you want the coconut shirt, you can come back after midnight tomorrow and buy it with this link http://shirt.woot.com/Friends.aspx?k=4962
The other thing to watch is the Reckoning which warns buyers on Fridays to buy their shirts before the official weekly reckoning on Mondays. This allows them to rotate out shirts that aren't doing well or for some reason are just not selling well.

Am I the only one who thinks this song is clearly about freebasing cocaine? Chemical lime is a strong alkali, the coconut representing cocaine, and together they will give you a bellyache (well, they'll do that among other things...)

It's always seemed so obvious to me, yet I've never seen it printed anywhere or found anyone else who thought the same thing.

BTW - I'm bummed I missed the initial run. I might have to spend the extra $5 on this one later.

Man that was a quick sellout. I want one for my wife who loves that song!

Faith and Begorrah, I can't belive I missed this one. I guess I'll get it tomorrow then :/

AHHHH I want one!!! Come on mann!! You need to sell more of these shirts!

oh hum... i've never thought about it. i'll buy it though.

Bah, needs a 'mix it all up' picture.

Everybody's talkin at me......
I can't hear a woot they're sayin......

Now, let me get this straight,.. I didn't get one???? shameful

*pouts* I wanted one SO BAD!!! but it was sold out before I had the chance... Awesome shirt though, love the simplicity! Anyone who doesn't get it is lame cause that song is hilarious.

*giggles*! i remember this! PUT THE LIME IN THE COCONUT, LIME IN THE COCONUT, LIME IN THE COCONUT!

I kinda feel bad for women/girls buying this shirt. There are enough mother's being called "Biggie Smalls" already, and this shirt won't help matters.

harry nilsson song- coconut

You can buy it for $15 tomorrow using this link:

(I just realized there was no Sad Rat this time...weird...)

Might have to get this one tomorrow when it becomes available.

Dammit! I really wanted one of these! I checked in at 1 a.m. Pacific Time and they were already sold out! If anyone got one and decides they no longer want it, lets talk....

Oh, man. I need a reprise. An hour and a half and it's gone.

this shirt is so AWESOME!!!
offer it again pleaaasseeeee!!!!!!!!

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE offer this shirt again!

Second place was Kung Fu
Third Place was Bunny FooFoo

4th place with 538 give or take a few votes was Devil went down to Georgia..

I MUST have this shirt. I MUST! Anybody wanna sell theirs?

Yay! I just got the shirt for $15....this is a must have for me, since it is my theme song, and everyone knows it. Bummer, that I fell asleep early last night though.

Thank you to all the posters who posted the second chance link. The minute I saw this shirt, I knew both myself and my husband HAD to have one. I described the shirt to him over a beer last night, "It's a picture of a lime. A picture of a coconut. An arrow" He laughed (and laughed and laughed). This song is a huge in joke for us.

I definitely encourage people to order through the second chance link. The more orders Woot gets, the faster the second run will go to press. :-)

Why is it so hard to find the link to buy shirts the day after? I want one of these but I'm done searching for how to. Help!

Shirtderbystats.com is usually in the ballpark, but this time they were way off...

What is the link to buy this shirt after the fact?

I missed out on this on Friday, but bought it yesterday. Love the song, love the shirt. But then, I go for simple, centered, reasonably-sized designs*. Guess I'm just a simpleton.



*Not that I don't appreciate huge, extremely detailed, and/or off-center designs as art, because I do. They're just not what I like to wear on a shirt.

superspryte wrote:To make it easier, the link has been posted in this forum here, here, here, here and here for you. It is also linked in parentheses on the main page the day the shirt is being sold, where it lists what it is above the I Want One button.

Thanks for the lesson, I could never figure out how you found the link to buy it the day afterwards... I always just read through the discussion thread in hopes that it would be posted here (because it usually is)

HA! I like your sense of humor, superspryte! To everyone who posted the link to buy this shirt, thank you. My wife LOVES this song and I know she'll be very happy to see this shirt! Thank you all again.
