There are not 99 red balloons on that shirt. Totally not buying it. Disappointed. (Yes, I counted them.)

Yeah, I'm positive it's not about baby Elliot. "Neinundneinzig Luftballons" came out in 1983, and the English counterpart "Ninety-Nine Red Balloons" came out in 1984, years before the whole Oprah baby thing.

Cool shirt, though.

This would be lovely on a whitish background.

I'm pretty sure the 99 red balloons song is NOT about baby Elliot, but about the cold war.

This was one of the first Threadless tees I owned... I've just placed an order for 16 more - they'll be a uniform for my Ultimate Frisbee team this season!

I agree that it looks like blood droplets.

But there is a story behind the 99 balloons. Its about a lil baby Elliot who lived for just 99 days.

You can look it up on YouTube.

I own two of these! Just bought two more are replacements (after 5 years! these things are well made and last forever!)
