I’ve got a my Jackson Elementary School shirt from 1984. It says “Jackson Generals” on it. I can’t fit in it now, of course. Now I’m a grown-up.

I have a Richard Petty Pit Crew t-shirt from the '70s, but I only bought it two years ago. I don’t have any old t-shirts 'cause i gave a lot of my stuff to the Salvation Army to get rid of it so I wouldn’t have to move it to college.

A t-shirt from my elementary school Billy Mitchell Aviators, but that’s not that old (I feel so young reading some of these, you have shirts from before I was born!) andout '94ish.

My oldest T-shirt is a Slayer shirt from the South of Heaven Tour. I bought the shirt in 1988. It still sorta fits, but I haven’t worn it in years since the picture is faded pretty badly.

I’ve got a t-shirt from the ill-fated Guns N Roses/Metallica tour, summer 1992. I attended the first show, at RFK Stadium in Washington D.C. GNR sucked (and were 2 hours late taking the stage), Metallica was incredible.
