Just make another account and order. As a bonus you then have another vote for the derby.

There was a poster of this hanging on the wall next to the bathroom of the fine arts hall of my college. I realized the meaning of the poem about 2 months ago when my cat set his tail on fire. All I could say was "Tyger! Tyger! Burning bright..."

Unfortunately I cant get back that hour and a half. Blame my roomie, definitely in my top 5 worst movies I have ever seen.

If it had been centered on the shirt I would buy this in a second.

Wait a second - RamB dared to frame the beast, so, according to the poem... RamyB is immortal?? o.O

That helps explain the number of prints and the cult following.

Nice job, and congrats on placing 1st.

Very clever design.

First design im consider buying on anvil, so afraid of the reviews on anvil......

Where's his fearful symmetry? Cool shirt.

It's beautiful! It's artistic! It's subtle! It's on black!

Too bad it's being printed on the equivalent of a burlap sack....

i say , bring back centered graphics on shirts instead of the wrapper look. maybe i'm just really picky but yeah.

Beautiful, and I like that the design is off-center! As a writer with an English degree and a cat lover, I must have this shirt.

Even though I would usually prefer a shirt color other than black (or grey), I really can't see how the flames would have worked as well on any other background.

I suspect that I will be picking up a couple of shirts over the weekend as well.

Love this poem. In college at Mizzou, someone composed a song for our top choir set to this poem. The second time through the song, our fight song "Fight Tigers" was sang over the top. It was pretty awesome.

Anyway... do you kids want some candy? Come on in.

There better be a new huffy bike in there too.

I think I'll get an XL of this one just in case.

I never dry my tees unless they hide on me and I miss 'em in the transfer out of the washer. I have a little rack I hang 'em on to dry. Totally prevents the shrinkage.

How are people liking the new tees? I haven't bought any yet, and frankly, I'm very hesitant.

congrats ramy, awesome design.

now if woot would stop printing them on the garbage anvil shirts i would have bought this on sight. please woot, listen to the community and get a supplier with quality cuts and material again so we can keep buying! i'd even be in at 15$/piece if thats what it took.

If not, the shirt.Woot! is cool in that it's not just a one chance opportunity. In three more days, you can buy this t-shirt as part of the regular Woot stock -- at least until a Reckoning knocks it down.

It should be available for another purchase tomorrow. Unless I'm mistaken, I don't think you have to wait for it to drop into the reckoning. You should be able to purchase it while it is still a bystander on the reckoning page.

If Draco Malfoy had a patronus, this would be it.

As an English major, I just have to say... I don't have any explanation for stanza 1's weird rhyme, either.

I think ~~~ F I G E R ~~~ is even a better fit.

For the women's sizes I like 'em! I have two of them now and the new Anvil WS fits me better than the old AA WL did. I don't see any issues with quality or softness or anything others are complaining about. *shrug*

There's several shirts that I loved in this derby, tyger being one of them. I got one today and I'll probably be buying more this weekend.

I'm not buying them, but I do suggest reading through the threads to make your own decision.

Did you drop 2 sizes or just one in women's? After reading the latest entries in the Lady Sizes thread, I think I may need the XS (which of course doesn't exist).

Just sayin.

If you were a WS or WM with the old AA shirts, you're pretty much SOL with the new Anvil shirts.

Thanks. I was more of a WS but bought the WM for the extra room in the shoulders. I guess I can stop looking at shirt.woot every day now.

When I saw the design, the first thing I thought of was Kevin Conroy's voice from the episode of Batman the animated series that referenced it.

Beautiful design, but, with two of the Anvil t-shirts already in the house, I can't bear another t-shirt with such wonky cut and sizing.

I knew this one would be first.
I'd be more tempted to buy it if I hadn't recently bought 3 randoms .

And that says it all. (sad face)

C'mon guys, there's no "I" in tyger!

WHO MADE A T-SHIRT ABOUT ME!?!?
Oh wait... n/m.

For those who have purchased one the newer Anvil shirts:

How heavy are these new shirts? Thick heavyweight cotton? I hope not too thick or heavy, I prefer a lighter shirt as bigger guy. I don't care about the size or shrinkage, all my clothes are washed cold and dried extra low.

This design is awesome, but if the shirt is too thick, I'd have to pass...

Check Narfcake's post for some good discussion linkage, which was borrowed from ThunderThighs, which was apparently part of a post I made at some point...

OK that's getting a bit too meta, the general answer is "experience varies vastly depending on who you ask and what people are looking for in a shirt".

In for 1 with the new Anvil women's cut. I wore an AA WL, so I'm trying a small. Worst case it will become a work shirt.

Love the design and the write-up is great! Byron was one of my favorite poets in English Lit and I can totally see him writing this email. Snerk.

I love this design but the shirts I have from Woot have all faded or lost their shape too quickly. I wish we could pay more $$$ and get the same design printed on a higher-quality shirt.. *sigh*

"I seriously had no idea this poem took place in a Greek restaurant until this line!"

xD. That was amazing.

Totally love this shirt! As do my boys, too bad we can't purchase any due to "server errors". Tried four times. Of course, the error message only appears AFTER entering payment information. We better not be charged for each attempt, or any attempt since none were successful. Not the first time we were unable to purchase something cool from this site due to their server issues.

Keep checking everyday. They still have days left that are printed on AA's for women. And check at least once a week to see if the side-sale has anything available still in AA - for example This awesome little guy I bought this week.
