Show Us Your TMO Shirt Winner - Hey Troll! "...Because Windows Sucks"

by , 2:00 PM EST, December 1st, 2003

Folks, we have a winner. We have pics at 1 Infinite Loop, JV's living room, a shot outside the New Zealand offices of WETA Digital Ltd., and our own Brad Smith at his desk. These were all great entries (we were especially partial to the 1 Infinite Loop pics), but New Zealander LaurieF wasn't content with merely standing outside the offices of WETA Digital, so he took our challenge a few notches higher. With Return of the King mania kicking into high gear, his timing couldn't be better.

Just in case you don't know what we are talking about, we're offering you the chance to win a free TMO mug! All you have to do is send us a pic of you in your shirt (visit our online store for our very cool shirts) somewhere cool, funny, ironic, or, well, anywhere. The person who sends us the best pic each month will get a free TMO coffee mug, and we offer you November's winning pic:

Now, if only we could deliver that message so succinctly to the online version of the cave troll. Other pics from the land of kiwi:

Uhhhh...Don't look now

This man designed Liv Tyler's ears

What's that, a size 52 extra wide?

That's how you do it! That's what our "Show us your TMO shirt" contest is all about! Great pics, LaurieF; you are the official winner of a TMO mug for November. You can visit LaurieF's Web site for more notes on the picture, where he took them, and what they mean.

What about December?

Do you live in the Seattle area? Take a trip down to Microsoft's campus and get a picture of you wearing your "...because Windows sucks" shirt in front of the Microsoft sign. Sheen down to a Gateway Country store and wear your "I use a Mac" shirt (Gateway employees don't know quite how to handle a "...because Windows sucks" shirt). Do you have one of our new Matrix shirts? Morph on over to your local theatre and hang out in front of a Matrix movie sign (and get your pic taken). Feeling more mundane? Then take a pic in your classic TMO logo shirt at your office. Heck, take one anywhere in Australia, or the Netherlands. You can't get win a mug if you don't send in your pic.
