Theme
There is no theme for this contest (too constricting, for now). We want to encourage EVERYONE to participate. If there's one thing that is true, it's that EVERYONE has a t-shirt idea. Punch it!
Short History
Originally an undershirt and a work shirt, the t-shirt transcended it's undergarment status in the 1950's when Marlon Brando wore one in the movie 'The Wild One' putting out that bad-boy biker vibe we all know and love. James Dean was right there with him in 'Rebel Without A Cause.'
In 1960, after his time in the military, Big Daddy Roth pushed against conformity and developed a way to mass-produce his own graphics on t-shirts. The marketing people at Budweiser wisely took notice and printed their first graphic shirts not long after, to great success.
Today, t-shirts are cut, torn, destroyed, molested, and violated in almost every way possible. New inks and processes insure a healthy future.. Enter our contest! You'll be glad you did... LONG LIVE THE T-SHIRT!
