I'd wear one just to piss off my boss. (It would be worth it.) I've lived in the US since I was about 12 and haven't been back in about 10 years. I also served in the US Army for about 5 years so you could say I'm a little confused on where I stand on nationality. Anyway it would be worth pissing my boss off with an All Blacks Jersey. :)

I've lived in the US for 21 years and will still never wear an All Blacks jersey. The only way that would happen would be if had a choice between a Bosox and a Kiwi shirt. Trust me, the Red Sox shirt would become toilet paper first.
 
So I wore my Whites t-shirt to work today and my supervisor called me a racist. LOL:doh2: I had to explain to him that it was a drysuit manufactuer and show him the website. Has anyone else run into this? Guess I won't wear this shirt to work anymore.

What was his reaction to your explanation?

No, I've not run into that problem.
 
I'll wear a DUI shirt and see if I get called in for alcohol counseling.
 
I hear the CEO at DUI has a custom lic. plate DUI1 and gets pulled over frequently.

:rofl3:

Only in Kalifonia!
 
I wonder what he would say if I wore teh same shirt. I have a Whites t-shirt and wear my Whites jacket all the time and no one says a word.... Then again, I am black;)

A funny note, in Junior High School, I was the only white kid for a year and a half until they integrated us. Well the mascot for Carver Jr High here in Orlando was the Bears. At the time Sonny and Cher was pretty popular (1969) and I wore a bright white faux fur vest much like the one Sonny wore here:

So the entire class nick named me the "Carver Jr High Polar Bear". Those were some memorable years.
 
Yeah, but whites dry suits are black?
 
Funny thread all the way around!!! :rofl3::rofl3::rofl3:
