Shirt of the Month: Got Hole?
Shirt sales at my store are funny like Stumpleupon. With Stumble Upon, I can get no traffic for weeks and then all of the sudden I notice a blog I wrote weeks earlier suddenly is getting hits. Same with my store. I can go weeks without a sale and then suddenly something starts selling with no explanatin.
This month it has been my “Got Hole?” tshirt. For the uninitiated it is an outdoor game much like a cross between curling and horseshoes. In Cincinnati, we call it CORN HOLE (yes plenty of references can be made) and in other areas it is sometimes known as Baggo. The idea is that there are two sloped boxes each with a hole in the middle. Players take turns throwing bean bags towards the box across the way while trying to knock the other players bag off the box. One point for landing on the box and three for getting it in the hole.
While I am always happy for the sales, it is frustrating that the design that was probably one of the easiest I did is selling so well while the ones I spend several hours on lay dormant.
Three days left in the Charity Challenge. I’ll post results on Tuesday!

Do you have a Courtney Love version?!
Maybe an angry Billy Corgan on the back?!
Yes but it isn’t PG.
With Courtney Love? I don’t believe it!
So … you’re saying it’s G, then?
Yes she is writing childrens books too.
Ughhhh….. I hate her sooo much. Blechhh.
Really? She was telling me how much she loved your Fuzz Nuts.
cornhole huh? naw.. i wont touch that one. so wackysack (not whackysack) is all your designs? i didn’t know that. i’ll have to swing back by there with that in mind. i hope you and mrs bearman have a nice long weekend.. if you ever get down to my neck o’ the woods, be sure to look us up! your face is beginning to be a common site at pier 60 on the beach! people already think you’re a local!
Thankfully I am still unpopular enough that I won’t get hounded at the beach.
well, you’ll probably have to wear a hat to cover your green hair since that would be a dead giveaway!
You wouldn’t have to wear a hat because your head isn’t showing in your avatar.
Oh I thought it was a green hat, I didn’t realise it was green hair. Are you from Mars???
Yes.
I just read the rules of this game… and people tell me I must have too much time on my hands because I have a webcomic or two. I guess it might be fun but I quit school because they had recess and I don’t play.
I only went to school because of recess.
looks like a slice of swiss cheese with only one hole.
Seriously…so simple.
I thought it was a comment on the oil disaster
What??haha
Could never wear that in Australia!!!!! Got Hole…Get Raped!!!!
So you get double entendres
I didn’t know that
Geez Bearman, I wished you had designed Agent X’s Pacman cartoon. Now that, I would have bought!
Well I told him to get it back on his store but he doesn’t listen.
i thought it was a started swiss cheese block hehe
You reading Jill’s comments?
Is that Apple’s new 500-dollar blue-tooth compatible door-stop?
No but add a horizontal line and it becomes an Ipad holder.
“Got Hole?”
I sure hope so. Life without em would be a royal pain. Course, life with em can also be a royal pain.
Amen.
ah yes. we call it “bags” here. i don’t think there could possibly be a more unoriginal, lazy name than that.
i was gonna make a courtney love reference, but i see that too, would be quite unoriginal given your previous comments.
thus, i’m left with nothing.
Leaving you speechless is always my goal.
It kinda looks like an axe head with the hole going through in the wrong direction. S’pose you could use your funny axe as a hoe. Got hoe hole?
Sounds like got Ho ho. now I am hungry.
Hoe hole, hoe hole, it’s off to work we goal. I know goal doesn’t make sense but it does rhyme
The game sounds fascinating, Bearman. Almost as fun as this game called “Chores” that my parents used to play with me.
I like the shirt, it’s funny. Just wait a few months, and maybe your more recent stuff will start selling. Because IMO, those designs are the money shots. Or holes. Or whatever.
I am still waiting for my assignment to illustrate your book on Rejected Readers Digest Submisssions.
It’s in the works, B!!! Start getting on those horse cariacatures…
What’s the horse supposed to be saying?
They were playing that all over Virginia Beach when I went. I didn’t realize it was such a thing. Although I think at the bars they needed some ropes to keep the drunks and inconsiderate people from weaving and converstaing in the aim of fire. Although, I wouldn’t have hesitated to meet bag to head.
Corn hole with VIP ropes..now there is something to see.
This box is a large black hole
“Swallow everything that goes there?
I know. Can you imagine the first guy to come up with it who couldn’t afford some horseshoes.
