Day Three Hundred and Fifty Seven
Today’s shirt immortalizes the one, the only Mr. Kenny Rogers. Nevermind his music, does anyone remember his fast food restaurants? Kenny Rogers Roasters? I’m definitely guilty of eating there once or twice as a kid (thanks Dad), and even to this day, I don’t think you can get “crappier” fast food. It was like Boston Market (which is down right horrible) but 10 times worse. To make matters worse, I recently learned that Kenny Rogers Roasters is still open in the state of California… The moral of today’s post is avoid Kenny Rogers like the plague, unless you come across a really gnarly shirt with his face all over it.

Name dropping time!
I met Kenny Rogers in a recording studio in Nashville one time. He was auditioning a blind piano player for his new record at the time. He was a very nice guy.
And who can forget the Kenny Rogers Roasters episode of Seinfeld… one of my favorites!

My only question is why wear this shirt on a Thursday when you’ll be at work all day? This really seems like one you would save for a big day. Maybe you had an important meeting and needed to dress to impress. If that’s the case, then I totally understand.
