Drowning Ferrets T-shirts... a reddit meme commercialized
We live in amazing and hilarious times... and we can see how memes evolve in real time, some eventually becoming commercialized.
What started as a morbid internet comment by a sad Rutgers fan after a loss to Michigan last season
https://www.reddit.com/r/CFB/comments/yjr67t/comment/iupq362/
became a running joke for the last two seasons (as well as a Joel Klatt ripoff meme)... and now sports apparel:
Found this during a search for a different Michigan shirt, but thought others may find amusing. There are quite a few others there that are good (including Orji in the Endzone).

Let's hope Michigan takes this approach (tightening the grip as time goes on) in the playoffs.

I'm imagining the type of person that wakes up and puts on a shirt like that, and I don't think I want to meet them...

Especially if that person wears it to the next MGoCampout.

And also, let's not forget -let's not forget, Dude- that keeping wildlife... um, an amphibious rodent, for... um, you know, domestic... within the city... that ain't legal either.

What are you, a fucking park ranger, Ernis?

Let's drown an elephant.

This is the psychopath I want to see...

Let's drown a red wave! Wait how do you do that?

An amphibious rodent?

Having written this Reddit post (It was after the Michigan State game and before the Rutgers game) I'm pretty OK with the "Michigan Ferret Drowning", but cringing at the whole comment on the back.

Cute, but you know that it's not hard to print up t-shirts and sell them online?
