Batshirt Crazy
Hey! Who’s that flapping those membranous wings, on a nocturnal mission straight into our hearts? Bats! Armed with sonar, rabies, and possibly shape-shifting abilities, these flying guano-pumpers have found a new roost: right on your chest. Unlike the bats offered by other deal-a-day web sites, this fetching pair is guaranteed disease-free. They may bite you while you’re sleeping and slurp at the wound for nourishment, but what’s a little blood between mammals?

Wear this shirt to: your Weight Watchers meetings, to let everyone else know about the hottest, healthiest low-fat alternative to beef – bat meat.
Don’t wear this shirt to: the northern Brazilian state of Maranhao, where bats bit over 1,000 people during a 2005 infestation, killing 23. The locals might not see the humor in it.
This shirt tells the world: “I dream of soaring through the air, wild and free, ingesting insects all the while.”
We call this color: Non-Coagulated Red.

This is a weird shirt, but I like it. It’s simple, to the point and just is simple. Who doesn’t like bats anyway?
