Wearing Wrestling shirts in public?
Do does everyone here wear there wrestling shirts in public or are they one of those things that you bring out for certain events?
The reason Im asking this is because I know a few people who have some wrestling shirts, but think that its too geeky to wear in public places. They think that the shirts should only be worn to a wrestling event or if you are going to watch the wrestling ppv somewhere. Is anyone else like this? Personall I am not...infact all my friends know me as a person either wearing a band t-shirt or a wrestling shirt. Thats pretty much all I wear. |

OK. I'll 'fess up.
I HAVE worn wrestling t-shirts in public in the past, however, since the day some snotty-nosed kid started yelling and screeeeeching at the top of his voice when he saw my ** sigh ** Rock "You bring the ass...I'll bring the whuppin'" t-shirt in the middle of a crowded supermarket and then of course everyone staring at me as though I were a child-molester, I have ceased this public parade of my wrestling merchandise. All my t's are now confined to wearing around the house or around the pool - the wife had something to do with this decision as well i.e. hid most of them. |

Wrestling shirts can be fun in public.
A few months back I was at work and I saw a kid just standing around. Dude couldn't have been more than 10 years old. He was wearing a John Cena shirt. So to the tune of the horns in Cena's theme I started to sing "John Cena Suuuucks! John Cena Suuuucks!" He ran away crying............................. Last Tuesday I saw him again, and he had a shit eating grin on his face when he saw me. "WHO SUCKS NOW!!?!?!?!?!" His dad looked a little pissed off at that but before his dad could say anything I assured him that I earned that. We had a good laugh over it. |

I pretty much wear my wrestling shirts all the time, and no one seems to have a problem with me wearing them as well.

I used to wear an old DX shirt before I even watched wrestling just because I liked the big green "X"
Then one time, in grade seven I think, some douchebag yelled "DX sucks!" right in the middle of the hallway and I had no clue what he meant. |

I really only wear my Eddie G shirt and the SAVE_US shirt in public. The Eddie shirt is the Tribute one and the SAVE_US one is subtle and only a fan would know its a wrestling shirt.

I don't wear catch phrase shirts because people do yell them at you on the street. I have an old Team Angle shirt though, a Jericho Highlight Reel one and of course an old-school nWo.

Absolutely NEVER. I'm too high profile to have that conversation with people. Although they do get busted out for the fantasy football and baseball auctions. Fave t-shirt of all time, the grey Kurt Angle "It's True" t-shirt as well as the vintage "Austin 3:16"
On top of that If I ever had the chance to own a Flair Robe, I'd wear it everywhere all the time. Last edited by The Heenan Family; 01-31-2008 at 10:49 AM. |

I do wear my wrestling shirts in public. I don't see any problem at all with it. Usually wearing my Punk shirts, Edge, Hero, Sweeney...I don't care what anyone else wears, so why should they care what I wear.

I like wearing my TNA shirts to WWE events at Buffalo Wild Wings. For Rumble I wore my Christian shirt and some guy gave me a hard time about it. He was pissed that I was wearing a TNA shirt to watch a WWE event...

About 90% of my shirts are wrestling shirts, and the other 10% being baseball. So yes, I wear a wrestling shirt pretty much everyday.

I wear my wrestling shirts whenever the fuck I feel like it.
If douchebags can wear Panic at the Disco shirts in public, I think I can break out my Edge shirt or CM Punk shirt. |

I have a tendency to wear wrestling shirts in public and don't mind it. Sometimes its cool cus someone will see you wearing a shirt and give compliments, whether good or bad. The only time I would feel stupid is if some little kid is wearing the same shirt I did on that particular day.

My shirts consist of Baseball and Wrestling Shirts so I wear them in public. I am the only one on my campus who wears them around. I don't care what people think about me so I wear them.

I've worn my Hurricane shirt out a few times, albeit I've slowed down since it went from WWF to WWE, and it says WWF.com on the back.

I dunno. Might just be something about my perception of the Australian public, but any time I see a dude in a wrestling t-shirt in public, I immediately assume he is a yob and/or beats his wife.

I would wear that "Victim of the crossface" shirt every day if I had one.
I've been meaning to buy that for the last six months. |

The only one I wear with any regularity is my HBK one with the thorns (Back: "For Many Are Called, But Few Are Chosen")
I wore my DX shirt to work one time (suumer pool manager). Realized that wasn't the best idea when I got some funny looks from parents. And I got the Shawn Michaels retro T-Shirt with the Heartbreak and Triumph DVD - I wear that one a bit, as well. So I suppose what I'm saying is yeah, I do wear the wrestling shirts around - and I'm at UVa - I stick out like a sore thumb. |
