| I need something funny to put on my clubs t-shirt I'm getting t-shirts made for my fencing club and I need something cool to get screenprinted on them.
Anyone got any ideas?
Has to be something wity, or funny, or anything really, as long as we would feel cool wearing them.
My clubs name is AUSC.
Thanks,
Z |

| How about "Don't piste me off, or there'll be hell to epee"? Or "Ask me about my sworded past"? "Let's do lunge"? "Thrust no one"? "Sabre the moment"?

| "We'd like to make a point..." ?
"Rapier Wit" ?
"Live life to the hilt" ?
Too bad you're not Canadian; you could say:
"We stand en garde for thee..."

| Fencers do it in the Fleche
Fencers do it with 36" of long, hard, steel.
Fencers get to the point.
Fencing... When you absolutely, positively have to stab someone. |

| Theres some shirts at triplette that say: Screw Right of Way, I got the Touch!! but they have a picture of what looks like a naked man...
At Wizards.com, look at the top of the screen, theres white writing on black. Move your cursor over games, then move it to Trading card games, then click on Magic the gathering. Then scroll down about half the page, There will be some black t-shirts on the left of the screen. One has a fireball, one has a tree, one has a droplet of water, one ha a skull. Click on one of them. Now look at the left of the new pop-up screen. Click on Word-T's. Go to the bottom of the screen, and click on short sleeve, or long sleeve (your prefrence). One says something like: Do Not Meddle In The Affairs Of Dragons For You Are Crunchy And Go Good With Ketchup. Search around, there's some cool ones...

Of course, the creator of Magic - The Gathering was a fairly decent fencer, competed in JOs and such. (One of) his sister also fenced collegiately and JOs-wise as well.

| Fencer A: When is a good time to feint?
Fencer B: When you see fencers from AUSC, feint. So you will end up at the hospital rather than fencing fencers from AUSC.  <img src="graemlins/evild.gif" border="0" alt="[Evil]" /> <img src="graemlins/evil3.gif" border="0" alt="[Evil 2]" />

| We recently had T-shirts made; on the back we have a silhouette of one of our fencers executing a running attack against another fencer with the phrase, "It's just a fleche wound .... "

| It's not the size of your weapon, it's the length of your lunge.
I'm afraid I can't take credit for that one. A girl that fenced with us over the summer a few years ago told me a bunch and that's the only one I can remember. |

| Hehe have you been looking at my idea board?
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
I have a shirt in production that says "Piste off!" as well as a license plate available now with "Fencers do it in the Fleche". But I think all fencers come up with these at some point in time <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
At any rate, just wanted to drop the original poster a note that if they see anything they like in my shop, <a href="http://www.fencingwear.com" target="_blank">FencingWear.com</a>, I can add a line of text to the front or back of the shirt for the "cost" of a minimum of 4 items purchased. That way it can be adapted to be their club t-shirt. |
