Question: What is your favorite FIRST shirt?

In this thread:
http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...favorite+shirt

Many people commented on the numerous FIRST T-shirts they had lying around their house. Well, lets pretend that you must get rid of every FIRST T-shirt you own except for ONE (sad to think about, I know )

What single T-shirt would you keep and why?

Re: Question: What is your favorite FIRST shirt?

I'm not picking one until you pick one Erin. I'll narrow it down to two here.

-The favorite one that is still in my possession is the 2003 Team 103 shirt I have on in my picture. What can I say, the CA is an incredible memory and I'm not parting with that shirt.

-The favorite one no longer in my possession is a 2003 Team 25 Hawaiian shirt. I love the orange and I wore it to neighborhood parties, but when Wayne Cokeley (25's leader) fell ill during the 2004 build season we wrote messages on it and sent it to the big guy.

Re: Question: What is your favorite FIRST shirt?

Wow...I would be lucky...for some reason I do not own a single FIRST shirt. So I can't really choose my favorite.

Re: Question: What is your favorite FIRST shirt?

If I had to keep one, I'd probably keep my short-sleeved gray 1293 shirt. Sure it's a little worn, but so much has happened while I've worn it...

I mean, I've been pwned in Taboo, gone across the country, been on The Price is Right, and dealt with more than my fair share of duct tape. All while wearing that one particular shirt.

(And this isn't counting all of the normal everyday good things that've happened. Now if only I didn't have to put it in the special occasion lineup!)

Re: Question: What is your favorite FIRST shirt?

I found an old NU-TRONS shirt from 1999 or something, it was red with a black disco dude on it. My daily fashion sense (if I have any) doesn't really include normally cut T-shirts (it's a girl thing i guess)... but I wore this shirt frequently when I scrubbed out for class. It looks good and it's cut in a way that feels great. I'd definatley keep this one.

I must admit, I don't really wear my old Buzz shirts in public

Re: Question: What is your favorite FIRST shirt?

I'd most likely keep the shirt from '03. It was the first season I was in FIRST and on my team, and I don't think I ever want to forget that season. I miss it a lot, I wish I could go back in time and experience it all again. I don't like how the memories are fading =(

Re: Question: What is your favorite FIRST shirt?

My 229 - 2003 shirt. (I have 1 left).
I'd keep this one for purely sentimental reasons.

I have MANY cool FIRST shirts, but when it comes down to it, it'd be tough to giveaway ALL my 229 shirts. So, I need to keep at least one.

John

Rich- I have that one in my special closet with the hawaiian wardrobe. But I have another one for you (and Lavery too)..... see me at the next event.

Re: Question: What is your favorite FIRST shirt?

If hoodies count for shirts, I'd keep my 469 one because its warm, but my second pick would be my '04 Sweet Repeat shirt because it is very simple yet neat-looking.

Have to say the polos that we had for the Mech Warriors for FIRST 2003... although it'd be nice if mine actually fit me, lol

Re: Question: What is your favorite FIRST shirt?

I have 3. One is our team hockey jersey so if your own doesn't count then I have 2.
I received an orange Hawaii shirt from Team 25 at Championships and also a Team 48 jersey at the same Championships. Both have great memories and great friendships attached. I wear both regularly and would find it difficult to give up either.
