Every year, the first Cubs/Cardinals series bring out some of the finest budding entrepreneurs. Last weekend, St. Louis saw the streets of downtown laced with makeshift t-shirt vendors selling 2009's hottest rivalry product.
Calvin pissing on a Cubs hat on the front...and a "Cubs Suck" proclamation on the back.
Very very original. Slug back a few Busch Lights and the creative juices start flowing. It's what we do here in St. Louis.
Regardless, the ushers at Busch Stadium made sure that the general public wasn't subdued to such foul language like the word "suck" and instructed all t-shirt of this particular variety to be turned inside out.
Does the word "suck" belong in a family environment like the local ball yard? Who the hell knows? I'm not here to debate that.
What I am here to do is point out one fairly dicey (
read: borderline (read: definitely)) racist) t-shirt that populated the exact same section and was under the exact same usher guidance as multiple "Cubs Suck" shirts. Keep in mind, the "Cubs Suck" shirts were instructed to be turned inside-out because of their profanity.
Wow. There's not really much to say.
What's the over/under on how many games this guy is able to wear this shirt to before some Spanish dude kicks his ass?
