who let that dog in the grocery store!?

...And yet a dog is allowed to roam free in a grocery store. How ironic.

I'm not seeing a scarecrow reference. Anyone?

I'm thinking the scarecrow is the broom?

In for 1.

This is perfect for my gf who has a love of Wicked (the musical) and a lack of love for cleaning... wish it was the other way around.. oh well.

She will like the shirt.

I don't think I understand this design. I feel like maybe there's something I'm not getting, and it's frustrating me. I see Dorothy mopping up the witch, with the lion doll and the oil and hearts on the shelf, but I don't understand why. Is there a why? Someone please help me. And while you're at it, if you could explain Lost Highway to me too, that would be great. That movie was way over my head.

I'm thinking the brooms, made out of straw. Someone earlier said the mop, but I'm guessing that person hasn't done a whole lot of mopping with her straw mop.

What's with all the Oz shirts on woot? Is it a staffer's favorite?

the brooms represent the scarecrow with "straw"

The PA system in Oz-Mart must be amazing. I can just imagine a floating head saying: Dorothy to Customer Service, Dorothy to Customer Service! And then back to music.

CAUTION: WET FLOOR

Perfect T-shirt for my daughter, who thinks she IS Dorothy!! And has played her (altho not on TV). I loved it... sent her the link, and she, who rarely wears T-shirts, wants one... it's on its way, honey... be watching for a package from woot! :-)

He's the brooms.

She should have used a dyson...

Scarecrow are the brooms I think...?

I'm thinking the same

Consequences. There are always. That said, I do like the style.

What do the bullet casings on the top of the shelf have to do with anything?

The same kind of store that melts it's customers for asking too many questions about the organization.

Sold out.

"I'll get you, my pretty ... and your little dog too!" As she melts, she cries, "Oh, what a Woot! What a Woot!"

Or at the very least a zoomba...

A great shirt for all the Friends of Dorothy in your life!

Yeah - I've been thinking on that one too. On the top shelf, there are oil cans for the Tin Man, a stuffed lion, and those things - which you'd think would have something to do with the Scarecrow. I don't know about the brooms being made from the Scarecrow - it's possible, I suppose, but brooms are usually associated with witches (they're good for flying around and for setting scarecrows on fire...say it ain't so!).

And check out the middle shelf. It has hearts (some folks don't have one, and need to find one), and perhaps the boxes with the lightning bolts contain some courage. I hope that doesn't mean there are brains in the boxes on the left - that's too Hannibal for me.

I'm thinking Dorothy needs to lift some weights. Looks like rubber band arms.

Wondering what art form was used. Looks almost like reverse print block with the patches of color missing.

Cool- I live in Orlando, too! Great illo.

Do not arouse the wrath of the great and powerful dayshift manager!

Mine, too, so I just listen to the soundtrack and ignore the rest.

Those dead eyes! So creepy!!!

Dorothy seems to be sniffing too much of that spice melange.

It would be really cool if they had this song playing in the background.

LOL. Be sure to stop and use the bathroom before you pull back out onto the yellow brick road.

For those who've only seen the 1939 movie, this design is actually more reminiscent of the book. In the novel, the Witch is not trying to kill Dorothy, she is using her for slave labor -- specifically, mopping floors in her castle. Dorothy gets fed up and dumps the mop water on her. This makes more sense than the film, where (if I recall correctly) they are running around the castle walls and just happen to find a bucket of water randomly sitting nearby.

can I still buy this shirt?

Thanks for all the comments! Tammymillisor, you can still buy it;)

So sad that I missed this one. :*( I'll be checking ebay constantly for this. Great shirt!
