No one in the real world is going to know the title of the shirt... unless you run around telling them and pointing at it.

So aren't the history lessons a little over-the-top? Yes, It's a Korean/Japanese/Chinese/Asian style dragon. Yes, it's Japanese Kanji on the apron. While we're at it, lets make that a German Bratwurst just for the sake of it... And he's referencing Mongolia, and he's selling to primarily Americans!!!111oneoneone
Now his shirt is somewhat multicultural. wow.

Thank you for trying to teach the world a lesson based on a witty shirt title and design, but really. I just want to wear the damn thing.

Re: Gimme s'more o' that

will probably be rejected for text.

IMHO it doesn't need the text anyway, it does not contribute to the aesthetics of the shirt. The beauty is in the simplicity... just let people get it.

Re: King of the Grill

thanks to all the "king of the grill" shirt fans! I forgot about Father's Day coming up... but this would be an excellent Father's Day present to myself so keep those votes coming

Re: Overindulgence

Nice take on the theme. Very well done! +1

It's an old "game" to play with children who aren't wearing their socks. You grab and wiggle their first toe (the pinky toe) and say the first line and on down the toes until you reach the large toe for which you say "And this little piggy Weeee weeee weeeee, All the way home!"

Re: Overindulgence

Comedy-wise one of your best to date. I think most of us can identify with at least one character pictured, whether ourselves or someone we know. So glad this has fogged.. wishing you the very best of luck for a win.

Re: here would be paradise... if i can has

Dear Woot Gods,

There are distinct grill marks on the cheeseburger. This implies grilling outdoors. Why was this rejected when the following remain in the derby?

Don't hate on cooldog

Who's Got First Dibbs?

Close Crushin Skewer

Man, The Other White Meat

Wrong Hot Dog!

I think I may resub with that. And maybe replace the hobo with an undead Darth Vader. That would sell like hotcakes.

Re: Who's Got First Dibbs?

I'm really surprised this hasn't received more votes. The expressions are priceless and an interesting take that I wouldn't have thought of myself. Well done.

I would buy like 30 if you did that. Oh, what if you put on a scratch and sniff sticker so that it SMELLED like hot cakes? Would that count as one of your colors?

Re: Some BBQ

Made me laugh out loud, even sort of snorted! Wilbur!

Re: BBQ Coat of Arms

!!!I hope this one fogs just like the salsa dancing one did !!! !!Woot! you sure are a master at fixing the game... Hopefully you'll come back with an I'm sorry foul for the other team and offer the Blue Footed Booby Dance of Seduction an Editor's Choice print!!

Yes, please, need 3 for gifts for summer camp. Really, I'm not being sarcastic. I am bummed I didn't get last summer for friends who vaca in Vermont every year.

BTW, this is cute, but last years 'mallows were more appropriate for my friends.

Re: Pre-cooked Meal For One

thanks woot, I'd wanted to delete yesterday, mistakenly thinking I had till Wednesday noon to do so.

re: bbq coat of arms

When does it go on sale so I can get a few??!!

Re: Divine BBQ

Lol, I like this shirt

Re: Barbecue pride

Teehee, you're clever you. What with your word choice and all.

Thanks for the comments. You might be right about the text. It just needed something and I was hoping the white would help give it some texture without making the words too prominent.

Re: Brutal Hot Dogs

Oh Burned!!!

Re: BearBQ

Nice job shading! Brilliant work~♥

Re: BBQ Coat of Arms

This should be the Iron Chef uniform.

re: duck season

Aww rejected.. =( Although it doesn't surprise me it just a matter of time, but i don't get how this is "off topic" The challenge was a BBQ in any shape or form, elmer fudd is trying to BBQ daffy on a rotisserie... simple?

Re: Mmmm Fire Roasted Popcorn

I'd wear that, it's cute! (I feel like I've said that a lot today, but I can't help it!)

Radscoolian wrote:do you draw your stuff on paper and then scan it in? If you don't, you should. When you build an image on illustrator without scanning it in first it tends to have that illustrator look.

I do draw the key parts, but don't have the ability to scan them in. So I usually end up using the brush/pencil tool to recreate what I had drawn. I have a tablet that gives a much more realistic hand drawn feel, but I don't use it much. Maybe I should.

re: i like them on the grill

A bit of trivia about the book:
It was written to win a bet that he couldn't write a book using 50 words or less and it be a success.

Re: Cows' Wish

Great expression! You've definitely gotten the simplicity down. I'm with you on your color choice.

Re: Marinade Made Easy

Brilliant placement of the cows. I like the submeanings behind each one of them. If some of the text is removed this will definitely be a Top 3 Contender!

Re: Some Assembly Required

This is FANTASTIC -- the best shirt here! I love the design and the concept -- it's so clever!!!

I can appreciate the blue colour for subtext representing the cooling of the characters from their indulgences. Maybe soon they will learn their lesson and begin to indulge only in increments for the next derby

Re: Some BBQ

I liked your boobies better.

Re: Brutal Hot Dogs

This is rediculous, if you decide to submit this somewhere else, please PM me...my son really wants this shirt!

Re: Mongolian BBQ

I would buy a TV on woot just to be elligible to vote for this epic design!
