Shirt.Woot

Wait, when did Amazon take over? Did I miss something here?

At the risk of arguing for 'realism' in a Woot shirt (unworkable concept, that), lions hunt the savannahs where their tawny color blends in. They'd stick out like a sore thumb amid all the green grass you're suggesting.
Besides, yellow is an awesome color, especially on dark-complected folks like my Italian hubby.

Earlier this year. Amazon is now Woot's parent company.

Don’t wear this shirt: because it depicts animal cruelty. Honestly, how can we condone a representation of animals eating sugar, high fructose corn syrup, and red dye #5?

oh noes! Most candies aren't wrapped very well, so now all that piñata candy is going to get dusty. D; What a waste!

I do love the purple and lemon combination. If they weren't my high school's rival's colors and the colors of a certain SEC team, I'd absolutely love it :P Y'all are just going to have to settle for me just regular loving it.

I misread the title as 'funniest' and thought they were eating a clown...

Nice shirt. Sit! Stay! Good shirt.

This reminds me that adults don't spend enough time playing with pinatas. Hitting paper mache with a stick (or, y'know, claws) seems like a great way to revive one's inner child!

I'm *pretty* sure the superlative of "fun" is "most fun". Renaming recommendation: "Survival of the Most Fun".

Oddly enough, they are also complimentary colors. Double check your color wheel, yo.

At first glance, I thought it must be a kid who went out trick or treating. Thank God it is actually a pinyata.

I see what you did there

I vehemently agree! As a matter of fact, I only buy realistic Woot shirts, like the giant Otter destroying the ship, the four ponies coming to signal the apocalyptic end of mankind, and the gigantic FireFox decimating the Earth.

Lions and piñatas? MADNESS

Keep in mind that "lemon" means bright yellow.

The colour scheme here pains my pre-caffeinated morning eyes aaaaaaaahhh!!!.....

Other than that I'd take a shirt of just the cub. lol =)

Your comment makes sense but I'm not really a fan of the green. On the other hand, this one is so bizarre that I think the color choices actually work.


I am happy to see another vore shirt coming out so quickly - I have too many shirts in my closet but I couldn't resist the premise of this one.

Haha, the title was all Woot's choosing. My recommendation was "Lion Party".

Survival of the Sweetest? Oh wait no, Hunting of the Sweetest maybe.

This is funny! And the lions are nicely drawn too.

I wonder if they had to catch that thing blindfolded and with a stick.

Well, when you put candy in the mix, males don't care about who else is there. They put aside their pride, if you know what I mean.

Dude it's so true. I'm pretty sure this is the first implausible shirt I've seen here.

I like the title. And the design. The bubble-blowing is awesome.

Perhaps someone mentioned this already...but funnest is not a real word. It should be, since I hear so many people using it.
Funniest would probably work better. But, let's face it, funnest is more fun!

As long as your recommendation wasn't "Lemon Party" based on the color of the shirt.

(Disclaimer: Do NOT Google that, especially if you're at work. Just trust me.)

Also, the lion blowing the bubble is adorable.

That lion is going to be sorry after his bubble pops and he ends up with bubblegum stuck in his mane.

I think this is my favorite woot shirt ever. And yet, I won't be buying one, because I can't get away with wearing that shade of yellow, and no one I know would like it as a Christmas present.

This is you, kinzoku! I wish Woot would always put the artists' callsigns in the info. :^)

PRIDE! Ah ha... I see what you did there...!

The only suggestion to change the shirt is to add more cubs -- they're SO CUTE!

ffff, okay now the quality post note makes sense. I am more naïve than I thought.

You could give it to someone in Calif or Ariz or Texas, we (who have an immigration problem) find this shirt EXTREMELY funny!

Thanks!!

Hahahaha I'd move to Arizona any day despite the immigration problem!

Love it! In for one. And I think the color of the shirt is perfect. I just got Autumn Aviary in the mail, which is also on lemon, and it's a really soft, cheery color. I think the monitor makes it look harsher than it is.

Between this shirt and the "Save the Jackalopes!" shirt I really feel like woot is trying to say something about nature...

"Lion Party". I can dig it.

Funnest is NOT a word...uhhggg
Even my kids teacher uses this word...
However, the tshirt rocks!!

kinzoku wrote:Aaah I knew I should have stayed up late!

I'm very happy my shirt got to print here, thank you Woot! This is my second print and I can't wait to wear it. And that write-up really captures the spirit of pinata carnage I hoped to convey.

And thank you for the comments so far! Originally I had a tree branch above them, but the composition looked far better without it.

Very rare... but it has been documented. I believe NatGeo did something on a pair of brothers that ran a pride.

Yellow?? damn it, I laughed heartily when I first saw this too.

People are actually complaining about "funnest" not being a real word? It's a pun! It's not meant to be grammatically correct. It's playing with the structure of one word to supplant another word in an idiomatic reference for a ha-ha twist.
It's that simple.
Now, if you don't think it's particularly clever, okay, keep that skull muscle un-flexed and meow away. But to pick on the grammar when that's beside the point? Come on.

Love it and bought.

Lions in the Savannah.



lots of yellow here.


anyway, congrats on the print, great shirt!

I would have totally bought that.
