Blipshift needs your help. Our t-shirt making friends have decided that they want a t-shirt based on the general “Hoon” theme, but they’re not sure what that shirt should look like. You, dear reader, probably know exactly what you want on a t-shirt, and that’s why we’re turning to you for some help.

Presenting the Hoondonkulous T-Shirt Idea Contest! (See, we told you we needed help…)

Once submitted, your entry will be voted on by other people before ultimately falling to the eyes of a crack team of judges from Hooniverse and Blipshift.
