Get your Agency.com pitch T-shirts now

Rollbig Amid all the bitchy responses to our Agency.com item from yesterday (our favorite: “Can we stop referring to this blog as ‘AdFreak’?”), someone suggested that the shop’s Subway pitch video is so bad it’s become good. Maybe so. Someone’s been inspired enough to make (presumably unofficial) T-shirts. “When we roll, we roll big” has a certain panache, though the actual line is the slightly less robust “If we roll, we roll big.” On the back of the shirt, in smaller lettering, it reads, “Corner office, now,” which is also nice. They could do a whole line of shirts. Other possibilities, straight from the video: “Is that a 6-incher you’ve got there, or a 12-incher?” And the classic “Are you allowed to talk to women?” The shirts are going for $19.90 plus shipping. UPDATE: Also check out Jim Coudal’s homage video here. Funny stuff.

Suggestion: I pitched Subway with a shockingly-crap-and-not-very-viral-video and all I got was this lousy (but much funnier) t-shirt.

Nice attempt to backpedal from the shitstorm of (mostly correct) criticism, Agency.com.

Does THIS make you a viral sensation?

*fart*

It's gone viral.

I hear that Agency.com has introduced a new title for its creatives: Sandwich Art Director.

Well, at least when the layoffs come, they will have basic fast food service industry skills. Some may even qualify for manager.

I made the tshirt - but I changed it when someone pointed out that the actual line is - "if we roll, we roll big" -

The t-shirt's been temporarily pulled for "administrative errors", namely the if/when misquote. Also, your post contains a small currency error: it's £ 19.90 (UK Pound Sterling), not US Dollars, plus delivery costs. Just a small mistake, but it'll cost you almost 38 US dollars (1 USD = 1.90854 UKP) for that T-shirt, not including shipping. Whoa, someone's making a killing.

Agency.com are comprised of the types of douchebags who give our industry a bad name. Specifically, wannabee creative types who in reality are anything but. The sad video they made, all on their own, without any client influence, is proof indeed that they should go to Nobu one last time and then throw themselves of the Staten Island Ferry en masse.

Posted by: lisa | Nov 22, 2006 11:42:08 PM

cool shirts, but they need some sparkle. perhaps they could get some stones on it - like these cool rhinestone logo shirts. it would be cool with both printing and crystals, but I dont know where to get that.
