Fun subject title.

Alright my people. I finally got a spray with my stencil I've been working on. Went to the local Hobby Lobby and got some spray fabric paint. It's epic. First a little background.
Here in the south, there's not many hockey fans. There's like, maybe a handful of us. Sure we have an ECHL team here (LETS GO SEAWOLVES!!! WOOOOO!!!) but only a grip of people that go to the games are actual hockey fans. As in people that could give a fuck who wins the Kelly Cup or the Stanley Cup even. (I hate Detroit, but I'm glad they got it this year with as many players as they have retiring now, I think next year it's between Washington or Pittsburgh) So when the regulation season ended and all we had was the playoff games to watch, we all needed something to do in our spare time. So we made an Air Hockey league. we have regulation games going on right now, in a couple weeks we have the AllStar games coming up (I'm on the east coast allstars) and in about six weeks we have the playoffs starting. It's a pretty well organized deal, we even get a cup for whoever wins. It's pretty snazzy.
Sooo, with this league, we thought it would be fun to have jerseys. I didn't want anything cheesy or hokey, but something fun. Well, anyone that's watched hockey in the past decade probably knows who Patrick Roy is. One of the best goalies and team leaders that's ever walked the planet. He's an asshole, too, but that's another story all together. Well, my first name is Roy. While my first name is pronounced Rowee, Patty's last name is pronounced Waaaa. I thought it would be funny if the name on my jersey was my first name ROY and my team name was Team WAAGH! Like it was always being yelled. (It being spelled Waagh with the "GH" at the end was from a warcry from these dudes from a game that I used to play)
So here I am with a team name, a real name and no symbol for my team. With the thought that it was always being yelled I needed something extreme. Like yelling, then I remembered a picture that's always made me laugh. It involved yelling, too.
I can't get the original up right now cause Photobucket is hacked or something. But here's the on that's on MySpace right now. ( In speech I say it as if it's two words, I think it's funny...Mah Space) Maybe this fun attachment thing on the GXG thing will work for me?

Awesome, we'll see what happens. But that's what I got so far. Then I made a stencil of that kids face and with my team name. Sprayed it on a shirt and Ouila!! (Waa laa! I think)
So here's the shirt, there was some bleed of the paint, so I gotta go get another shirt and spray better. But this is what I have so far. I'm gonna make a new one. Just wanted to show the progress.
Fuck me the photobucket still doesn't work and I'm not making an account with something else. Okay, kids, check it out again maybe tomorrow if you're interested. If photobucket and it's communist fucking leaders decide to make it work by then I'll post the picture of the shirt. Even with the bleeding it looks pretty cool.
I've done enough typing for one sitting, I'm gonna go make a sandwich.
End Transmission.
