Insert your best Aggie joke here________. The Aggies apparently messed up a new t-shirt design for their arrival into the SEC. Some stories you just can’t make up.
CNBC’s Darren Rovell shared a photo of the shirt, which contains a geographically challenged picture of SEC member states, including North Carolina — last time I checked, North Carolina doesn’t have a school in the SEC… that is unless Duke, East Carolina, UNC, NC State or Wake Forest has something they’d like to tell us — but not including Missouri or, get this, Texas (it’s apparently on the back).
It should be noted that the shirt is not being sold through the school (one should hope not); rather, ESPN’s Big 12 blogger David Ubben added that the shirt is offered through Aggieland Outfitters.
The company later issued this apology:
Howdy Ags – This is Aggieland Outfitters. I thought I’d repost this under a new personal account to follow the guidelines of TexAgs.com.
All I can say is we messed up on this shirt.
The original design was meant to have the old SEC states with Texas on the back as an addition to the conference. Somewhere from sketch to finished product North Carolina got added. Sometimes mistakes happen and we just plain missed it.
Hopefully we didn’t ruin anyone’s day with this.
Gig’em!
Aggieland Outfitters
