Poor West VirginIa

"ALMOST HEAVEN, WEST VIRGINA"
Though this story goes beyond our normal jurisdiction, we couldn't resist this item, which we first saw on ******** and thereafter on AOL's Fanhouse and ultimately on Keith Olbermann's MSNBC show, which we watch pretty much every night between doses of Seinfeld.

After Thursday night's NIT championship game, the T-shirts that were distributed to the members of the men's basketball team at yours truly's law school alma mater contained an extremely unfortunate typographical error.
​

Ah, yes. West VIRGINA.

(We suppose it's an accurate statement whenever a woman watches a sunset. . . . Rim shot!)

Though plenty of readers already have sent e-mails chiding my fellow West Virginans for creating this mistake, the shirts weren't made in West Virgina. Or in West Virginia.​

That's just sad.

I don't know...i find it rather amusing. You never know, maybe those shirts end up being worth something. They certainly wouldn't have been otherwise.

 

[Concord]

That's pathetic.

From the people who made it to the people who checked them out and didn't catch it.

What a bunch of retards. It's bad enough the great state of West Virginia gets no national respect, and they had to go screw up their championship t shirts. At least they won the NIT. LETS GOOOOO MOUNTAINEERS!

That's pathetic.

From the people who made it to the people who checked them out and didn't catch it.

And what about the players too? You would've thought at least ONE of them would've caught it and told everyone.
