LOL

Last Wednesday, I wore my SC:PT shirt to school. I got out of my 7 a.m. American History 1302 class and had an hour until my next class, so I went to the cafeteria and was walking around looking for a table near an outlet for my laptop. After finding one with an outlet..I saw it had these two guys sitting at it, I walked up to the table and pointed to the empty seat and was like "Is anyone sitting here?" They said no and I sat down...and that's when I heard it...

"Hey, that's a cool game! Splinter Cell!'

Then the other one jumped in and was like "Oh yea man! Sam Fisher!"

So we all got to talking. One had to go but I hung out to talk to the other one for awhile. We discussed game and movie ratings, politics, college stuff and a few other things. Before he left, he shook my hand and said "It's cool to meet an intelligent and smart girl gamer." I just shook his hand and was like "Well, we are out here." Then he took off.

It took a whole semester and a half, but someone finally recognized the shirt!

Thats a nice story.....When bungie first put out those Fight the Flood shirts I bought a couple. Didnt take long for someone to say...."Dude, I love Halo." Anyways, take care!

Nice story Jackie. Glad to hear they were kind to you. Sounds like they had a great chat with you about games and other things. It's always nice to hear about people being able to find these kinds of common interests, about things they enjoy doing.

I had a Virtua Fighter shirt in my Junior year in High shcool. I wore it and got a couple people to reconize it. I also had Mortal Kombat shirt in my Senior year in High school.

It felt like I was the only kid in that school to wear game shirts at that time.
I wouldn't be surprised if I were to go back there and see aot of kids wearing game shirts now.
