In high school (mid 1990’s, so decades after the OP is referencing) there were a series of popular “Big Johnson” t-shirts, which relied on sexual innuendo (I.e. Big Johnson pool hall. Liquor in the front, poker in the rear). So this is not a one-time thing. As I recall, my debate team wanted to make t-shirts that said: Debaters do it orally Another one I remember: Drummers do it with rhythm ETA: the first Valentine’s Day I was dating my wife, I bought her pajamas that said “Insomniacs do it at night” ---

A friend of mine said her marching band mates had tee shirts made that read “Trombone players do it in VII positions.” (It helps if you know trombone notation. The band parents apparently didn’t.) ---
