T-shirts for Harvard away

[A-19]

Hey all. We are planning on making t-shirts for the Harvard away game in February (I know it's early now, but if I don't get price quotes now, I never will). The shirts will most likely be white, long-sleeved, and will probably run less than $30. The current design is:

(front, red letters)
Cornell Hockey
@ Lynah East
(graphic of hockey stick and puck to serve as a dividing line)
Road Trip 2003

(back, red letters)
Gimme an A!
Gimme another A!
Welcome to Harvard.

I actually have working graphics of the front and back, but I don't know how to post them online. Anyway, the reason I'm writing this is because, as long as the 10 of us are going to order them, I thought other people might be interested in possibly ordering some (make the Cornell contingent more prominent). Also, the more people order, the more the cost is driven down.

So, if anyone would be interested in ordering a shirt (and if anyone has any suggestions of which company to go with, or if any alums own a print shop or know someone who does...), please let me know @ mjr44@cornell.edu. Take care, and let's go red!

Aren't you missing a couple of As?

[Jim Hyla]

What, you expect them to take more than two courses?

[Will]

This sounds like a great idea.  I'd definitely be interested in obtaining one of these shirts.

How about letting CafePress do the shirts (as was done last year with the Screw BU t-shirts)? That way you just need the design and CafePress will take care of the sizing and style choices.

Although they did eventually decide that Harvard must not have authorized the "Harvard Sucks" hats and pull the plug.

How about not giving those asswipes at CafePress any more business?

Age I can feel the love. . .;-)

Ben, did you piss in Age's corn flakes again? ;-)

I love the idea... Especially walking around Harvard Yahd with those shirts for weeks on end after we destroy them (knock on wood).

Only a minor quibble: Do you HAVE to put Road Trip 2003 in there?  For those of us who live two T stops away from Hahvahd, it doesn't make any sense.

In any case, sign me up!

I think you can count me in for one of the shirts as well.  For hats, if you are in Boston, go to the place at Quincy Market.  They will make up the hat to your specifications.  It costs around $40 but that are well made.  I have a Cornell Hockey hat that has "Harvard Sucks" embroidered on the back and to do that was around $15.

It's also probably not the only Lynah East game in 2003, given the way that ECAC schedules usually alternate.

Felix, I don't think anyone in Harvard Yard would care in the slightest if you walked around in one of the T-shirts.  Hell, 90% of them probably don't even know that Harvard has a hockey team.

[kaelistus]

The second part of the shirt is not hockey specific.

Give me an A... etc. etc. hits the mark pretty well.

[gwm3]

That's true...

I would suggest making the shirts red instead of white.  Particularly if you plan to sell a large number of them, I think it would have a much greater effect to have people all in red.
