A little while ago, Mr Lady ran a little contest asking people to describe the most embarrassing thing that ever happened to them. I can’t play basketball, I choose wrong with 50/50 odds 89.3% of the time and I actually lost a spelling bee in school in which I was the only player. But this was something I could win…hands down.
And I did.
So the prize is this awesome idea started by Lightning, called The Lightning Traveling T-Shirt. The way it works is that she ponies up some cash for each and every blogger that comes across the shirt by December 1, then someone WINS that cash. Admittedly, I was way too slow to get my own contest up so that as many people could touch the shirt as possible, driving up the pot, and hope that my sluggishness hasn’t in any way upset her. (Her name is Lightning, Matt…c’mon. Use your brain.)
So here it is, and I will make it short and sweet, so we can get the show on the road. Simply comment on this post by 11:59 pm Monday, Oct 27 and I will Express Mail this shirt to the winner chosen by random drawing.
The only thing left is to show you a picture of this shirt. I couldn’t figure out the best way to depict the garment and showcase its quality. “What will do this shirt justice?”, I asked myself. “How can I let people know, photographically, that this shirt is not only important, but an actual high-end, couture item? Here ya go. Good luck!

I think you’re kind of crazy, Matt… but you do make me laugh! : )

Believe it or not this is the 3rd attempt at completing this comment. Yesterday it was IHOP, this morning it was a video game I had to help Fury figure out.
All I have to say is that shirt better be worth the $150,000.

I still can’t run on treadmills thanks to you. But lucky I have had zero issues with my underwear. Consider me in it to win it!
