Maybe you didn’t know either.

I knew Mario had a foundation. I knew Mario fought Hodgkin’s and won. I knew Mario is one of the most awesome Burghers EVER! But I did not know that you could get a Mario Lemieux license plate for a $66 donation to his foundation!

Not to go all Wendy Bell on you but, how frickin’ cool is that?, as the great hot one would say.
If I get a Mario Lemieux Foundation license plate and brand it with PttGrl, will I give myself away?
If the license plate isn’t your thing, you can get these cool blue t-shirts to show your support of Mario and his work on behalf of sick kids.

Go check them out.
And, you guys, if you see a hot chick tearing down the Parkway singing Summer of ‘69 at the top of her lungs in a SUV with bloody pigeon carcasses stuck in the grill, and a PttGrl branded Mario Lemieux license plate, TOTALLY NOT ME!

Mario needs to make them in large sizes.
4x, 5x, 6x etc so the big guys of Pittsburgh can advertise it for him.
by advertise I mean I have the back of
a small billboard. Great for adverts. ;-D

Mario definitely needs to have a Big & Tall shirt made for his BFF Mark Madden.

Still a Fan, what happens if they win a sixth? A seventh? My God, an eighth?! Will you update?
And while we’re all talking big and tall sizes, can a dude who wears a men’s small get a little help by being able to find shirts of his favorite sports team in his size? And I mean actual small-sized shirts, not these huge smalls that are actually mediums (or even large). Pens win the Atlantic, and can I find a shirt? No. Steelers win the Super Bowl, and I have to buy a fucking medium. I had to order Pirates and Pitt shirts online to get smalls, and they didn’t fit like smalls. Grr. Hate.

Brian, have you tried the kids section? XL kids perhaps? Just a thought.

Hey Mia. Yeah, the only thing is the XLs are too wide and a little bit short. I tried, but thanks for the help. I guess sports teams don’t like skinny dudes.

brian,
it will be money well spent to change the plate for #6
it’s only $20
heck, i’d pay $200
i live in the philly area and its superb to be sitting at a light and notice when somebody figures it out behind me.

Still a Fan,
Too bad it’s too many letters, but it would rule to have a plate like MCNABBVOMITINHUDDLE. Yeah, way too many letters.
