Shirt.Woot

I'd be afraid if this little guy started chasing the car token.

This calls for the theme song to the short-lived Monopoly game show that nobody watched back in 1990.

What a party animal. That dog wrecked two whole hotels!

I do believe that destroying property gets you a one-way pass to GO DIRECTLY TO JAIL!

Looks like the last player rolled a '5'.

Reading Railroad is now on red alert!

ha! shirt.woot! has a new one-two punch master combo. This is very nicely packed with tail wagging personality and fun.

Shouldn't the dice be showing a double? isn't there a rule for 3 doubles in a row and you go directly to jail..."shirt title" do not collect $200

It was pointed out in the derby discussion that technically, one cannot have a mix of houses and hotels, but considering the amount of doggie destruction, I think that's the least of anyone's concern.

And this is why dogs shouldn't own property.

The write-up is so true!

Ahhh yeah, I knew this guy was a shoe in, I tip my hat to you, you ironed out the competition, and sped to a print. That's a classy dog there... these are getting to be a bit of a stretch. LOL

But if you don't play you can't claim banker and steel everyone's money

That's why the dog is angry in the first place... no one likes a cheater.

I knew this would make it! Congratulations, kevlar51 and walmazan, on making such a brilliant design and winning the derby!

No iron token? What?

Wow, the write-up guy might need to go to therapy to work through his issues with that game. It'll be okay, friend. It'll be okay.

The game of Monopoly is based off of property in Atlantic City, NJ.

Ironically enough Hurricane Irene is supposed to roll up the coast and obliterate AC. (notice the buildings knocked over)

Perfect timing. Also, I think I will buy one and have it shipped to my mom's house in Pennsylvania...just incase my apartment goes to hell down here in NJ.

No, no keeping going, you're on a roll there!
And don't let other people railroad you into quitting. Just turn on the water works and they might give you a chance.

Congrats kevlar and walmazan!! Very funny design:D

As someone who likes Monopoly (imagine that...), I'm horribly offended by the narrative.

Yes! I can get this to go with my Clue shirt. Thanks to these two artists I'll be the most appropriately attired person at family game night!

Oh very cool, this looks great!

Aww, man, I was all ready to buy one to wear to my local game night until I read the "don't wear this to" part of the writeup.
Guess I'll just have to make do with the Clue shirt instead.

Monopoly doesn't have to be a bad game. Try playing by the actual rules instead of all the popular house rules! No money is to be given out on free parking or extra money for landing on go. When a property is landed on for the first time it is either to be bought outright or auctioned off to the highest bidder. If you follow these REAL rules your game will be shortened considerably!

Be that as it may, that would still involve some form of willingly sitting down and saying some form of, "Sure, I'm up for a game of Monopoly."

But as I said in the discussion, it's probably being played with house rules Bet there's a $500 hidden under the board, too!

So what's next for the collaberative team of Kevlar and Walmazan when it comes to game based shirts?

Battleship? Jenga? Connect Four?

kevlar51 & walmazan look to be working on a theme here. What's next? Battleship? Scrabble? Catan?

edit* wow! Looks like bluejester got his comment in seconds before me!

I was thinking Risk, but I guess it's not too early to start taking requests

Thanks a lot everyone!!!

The author of the write up may need therapy - we should all pitch in $500 from the bank!

LOLOLOL. I'd have to wheelbarrow the rest in with maybe a thimble of a chance that it'd make any sense. It might explode in my face like a cannon if I'm not careful. It's going to be an uphill battle... ship?

Yay! I was so hoping that this shirt would win...it'll go nicely with my Clue shirt

I don't play by the REAL rules because I have enough trouble calculating interest in real life, why would I do it for "fun"?

Also, I can't overcome the fact that I grew up playing on an Egyptian board, so the names on the American board are all WRONG. I tell you I want to buy Pyramid Row, don't offer me your silly Boardwalk!

Had to buy this. I have a miniature schnauzer and he looks just like the dog token--and I always play the dog. This is like a t-shirt made from heaven...

I'd pay money for a kevlar51/walmazan of Settlers of Catan. Also for Risk, as long as it demonstrated conquering the world from New Guinea, which is what my brother always did. If somebody else started with New Guinea, he'd conquer New Guinea first, and then move on to the rest of the world. Every time.

Seriously, guys, I'm really happy to see this win. Definitely one of the most fun shirts this week.

Someone at woot has lost Monopoly one too many times. Might I suggest getting strategy advice from "experts." Try the Cornell Monopoly Strategy Research Group:

Your brother's a smart man. Australia first. Then the world. That +2 each turn really comes in handy while everyone passes it off as fluff.

Man now I really want a Risk shirt. Australia was always a good strategy, although you need to make sure you have a foothold somewhere. Taking over all of Asia is just too hard to as your main attack front.

Wow...look at thar map! The West coast is wide awake. ..and likes monopoly apparently. Woot writer, stay away from the west coast.
