Has anyone ever won a shirt? Either way I want it!
I have never won once... would be nice.
Shriners rule
Still waiting for my time to win
Am I too late? If not IM IN!
Cool shirt!

I wander if the spammers ever win a t-shirt?
They have been good the past week or two (about not posting) or pop-sci has been good about moderating them lately.
What does one of your most loyal readers must do to win a shirt around here?
Please and thank you!
With great shirt, comes great responsibility.
Nice design. I would like this shirt
