Shirt.Woot

I never thought it would happen. I live in Windsor, Ontario and today at a local art fair called Art in the Park I saw a guy walking around wearing rglee129's Squeeze!

I shouted, "Hey, that's a Woot! shirt!" but he didn't hear me.

Sadly, I was not wearing a Woot! shirt myself at the time.

Any Wooters in the Netherlands? Don't think I've ever seen one. Feeling lonely. Guess I'll have to buy more to represent my country .

I'm going to visit Margraten one day & I'll wear some woot shirts then!

I saw one today on the show "Don't Sweat It" on HGTV. It was a taped show that aired last week. I think it was the carpenter that was wearing the friday the 12th shirt. It made my day

For ilovedoodle fans, my friend cybercowboy is a huge Superman fan, and as part of their recent photo shoot, they all donned Superman-inspired gear... including Honey! Wait!

We went to one of the biggest cons in the country over the weekend here in Texas. Thousands of people..and LOTS of Woot fans!!

Haha! That's cool to see your own shirts out in the wild. Did you say anything to the people wearing your shirts? "ZOmelets made great I DESIGNED THAT!" haha that's probably what I would say...

I usually just make a squeeee noise to myself, hahaha. DianaSprinkle was with me and she told the guy wearing XNP I was the artist ^^;. He was really surprised to meet Woot designers in person. It was very cool!

Just saw someone in Herald Square (near Macy's) wearing Dystopia Dark Lager. (I had on Air under a button-down, but don't know that it was particularly visible.) I was also on a mobile call at the time, and made no comment, as per my anti-social usual.

Heh heh, I like to embarrass her and it was so awesome to see someone else wearing it! To add to Bass' list I also saw these two shirts as well:

-"Mushroom Kingdom Chronicles in Baroque" by Draxxx (I didn't even realize that this was a Draxxx shirt)

-"Easy Optimism" by Sekiyoku

We also saw endless amounts of Threadless shirts, too many to write down ^^;.

I'm impressed that you can recognize so many woot shirts. Perhaps it's 'cos you are a veteran, but I think I would get them muddled up with all the teefury, threadless or other shirt-factory designs out there. Mind you, I've only been hanging around here for a few weeks, so I have a lot to learn.

I saw someone on the street wearing one of the many woots shirt I own (Woot shirts make up about 90% of my wardrobe). I pointed and said "hey! Thats a woot shirt! I have the same one!" and in response he rolled his eyes at me and kept walking. Thats my woot shirt sighting, hope you enjoyed.

I haven't been here for a super long time, but there's something about Woot shirts that tend to be memorable. I also spot a lot of Threadless tees, but there are so many that I forget the names. Here, there is a smaller group so it's easy to remember things.

What a tool! I would love it if someone spotted me, so keep looking! Plus I'm friendly & well adjusted.

I saw a guy wearing Jungle Within by sekiyoku yesterday in Lincoln Park (Chicago). I said, 'hey, nice shirt!'. He kinda looked at me funny, mumbled 'thanks' and went on his way. The shirt looked pretty good; I remember debating over purchasing it when it popped last year.

There's a show called Victorious on Nickelodean, and on it the character "Robbie Shapiro" in the episode "Robarazzi" when he tries to sit at their lunch table, he is wearing "Think of the Children" http://shirt.woot.com/friends.aspx?k=12625 :D

I went looking because I was curious. The shirt is at the very beginning of this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVPL9j7vZ_k&feature=related

Don't ask why but the video is reversed. =/

Another sighting at the Springfield-Branson National Airport...The Curser.

Me too. I wear Woot shirts whenever I fly, hoping in vain to be spotted.

heh.

Not really. But I am friendly and wear woot shirts often.

Oh that's so awesome! Seriously, it made my day. I love crappy TV and I also love designing shirts. When the two things combine, it's magical. ;)

Oh, man! I just came on the computer to post this sighting! My daughter (a huge Boots fan, as am I) was watching Victorious and all of a sudden I saw "Think of the Children." I'm screaming "It's a woot! shirt! It's a BootsBoots Woot! shirt!" and basically acting like a lunatic. Anyway, I thought it was exciting :o)

ETA: also, at a staff training last week, I saw a fellow librarian wearing Shigwarm's "Read a Book." Didn't get a chance to talk to her, thoguh.

Now there's a Derby idea, design a shirt that will land on a "crappy TV show"...

Soooo, I was at Wizard World Philadelphia and I have to say it just made my day a lil bit each time I spotted a woot shirt. I cosplayed all 3 days of the convention (Scarecrow on friday, Scarlet Spider on saturday and sunday.) I thought it was funny that I was running up to people and asking if I could take a picture with them just because they were wearing woot shirts.

Just returned from Wizard World Philadelphia. Didn't see as many Woots as I expected to, tbh, but I spotted the following wandering through Artist Alley:

FRIDAY
Poison Apple
Plumber in the style of Rembrandt
Suburban Blitzkrieg
Big On The Inside
Plan B
Soulmates

SATURDAY
Donut Panic
A Novel Idea
The Quick Brown Fox
Soulmates (again)
Cthulu BBQ
Poison Apple (again)
@-@
Forget Chopsticks ...

SUNDAY
A Cup of Freedom
The Perfected Art
It's a Trap!

On Saturday, while I was out and about NY's Upper East Side, I was wearing Cupcake Costume Party. Just as I turned down 85th st, I glimpsed someone wearing tgentry's Ask Again Later. By the time I realized what I had seen, he was already gone.

I just saw someone at seminar wearing The Chemist, it was appropriate, because she is in fact a chemist!

Pfft, what a jerk. I would've been excited!

I had a sighting a few weeks ago but forgot to post it. I saw someone walking down the street wearing The Epic Begins but I was driving so I didn't get to say anything. I'm still waiting for someone to spot me. I wear woot shirts all the freakin time, and there are 3 colleges in my town. Come on, people! I know there are a lot of other wooters out there.

I have two sightings!

Saturday, June 12th, 2010, I went to Islands of Adventure to visit the new Harry Potter section. As I was heading towards the Forbidden Journey ride, I saw F5 Refreshes You in line at the butterbeer barrel. I yelled 'Woot!!' and he did too! :-) I was wearing Upon Closer Inspection… because what is better for HP then the Loch Ness (run by penguins).

Today, courtesy of @wilw, I read this blog and hey, there's Spicy Italian Meatball! Scroll down to the 2nd picture after all the tardis cake photos which is cool reading too. :-)

Saw Imposter today at the alt office (aka local Borders). Guy was very involved in a book so I didn't interrupt.

Grim Optimism is in those blog photos, too-on one of the guys in most of the Will Wheaton shots.

patrick, not sure how you how often you get to see your shirts out in the wild, but i saw this on a nice kid at a best buy and he let me grab a picture (tried to be gracious and avoid posting the face). said he just got it and loves the shirt!

It was Steamboat Days in Winona MN this past weekend. LUCKY FOR ME, it's right outside my freakin apartment. Seriously, they block off the street right in front of my door for 5 days of carnival rides and general merriment. I kinda hate it, for obvious reasons... but it's fun to stare at people from my apartment windows like a creep. As I was a-creepin, I saw some guy wearing Sub-Lime. I saw him later in the night, when i was wearing Lestrades Moustache Pomade, but he seemed to be having an important convo with someone so I didnt wanna be all, "AMG COOL SHIRT DOOD" but i was totally thinking it.

And that's my story :P

Check out TJost's A Novel Idea in this Lady Gaga spoof video off of Youtube!

I had two sightings all at the same place
I went to the star wars in concert performence and you can guess what I saw and what I wore.
I spotted its a trap! and @-@
I wore its a trap!

I saw a young woman wearing "It Came Out of Nowhere" at about half-six this evening, on Broadway @ 28th. I myself had on "TaMoko Kiwi" in honour of New Zealand's World Cup match this morning, but don't know if I was likewise spotted.

I spied this while doing a google search tonight for something totally unrelated: KaseyFleming's 'friends' from the tattoo derby. I caught it from the tiny thumbnail. I figured it was a pretty good catch.

I saw Origami Lesson at the Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg, IL recently. I said nice shirt, he said thank you.

I don't remember which shirt I was wearing.

I saw "The Binge" and "Fat Unicorn" at the airport in the middle of the night. Not many people around so I was surprised to see two Woots. I've always talked to people I've spied with shirts before but was too tired to hassle strangers this time.

Saw a crazy number of these recently but only remember three.

Saw The Subway at Pho Thi Thi in Seattle. Hopped on a flight that night to PA, where I saw Computer Mice at... Well, now I forget, but somewhere. And Sub Lime back at the airport coming back to Seattle on the 28th. Obviously every time I was wearing a woot shirt since what else would I wear, but none of them noticed. There were others too but they escape me.
