I Hate St. Pat's Day

savannah has the second biggest celebration in the nation, after boston.
why?!
and the same people that claim to be irish here also claim to be german come oktoberfest.

the city basically shuts down. so many streets are closed you can't get anything done, but traffic is so dangerous you don't dare leave either.

so i stay home and lock the doors and pretend that the screams and moans and drunks shuffling in the streets are zombies.

:)

but then i got an assignment to do a st pat's pinup for the kansas city pitch and that makes the holiday brighter.

looks cool hansel

margolove on Mar 10 '08 at 11:02am

last St. Patrick's Day the dude at the coffee shop hit on me and asked me about my drinking plans :/

I was 17.

Edword on Mar 10 '08 at 11:03am

nice!

margolove on Mar 10 '08 at 11:04am

and it looks neato!

SoulfumeInc on Mar 10 '08 at 11:04am

killer shalaliegh!

wotto on Mar 10 '08 at 11:04am

nice work

Mike4507 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:05am

Yeah, I don't plan on going to Savannah either

danrule on Mar 10 '08 at 11:06am

Very nice. I remember when you were severely anti-Illustrator, now look at you!

stubby43 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:07am

Last paddy's day was pretty decent we had irish stew and a guiness.

fatheed on Mar 10 '08 at 11:07am

You know it's damn good.

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:11am

danrule on Mar 10 '08 at 11:06am Very nice. I remember when you were severely anti-Illustrator, now look at you!

ha ha yeah. but i still don't know anything but shapes and lines.
don't fret, my next sub is going to be hand line work
;)

FRICKINAWESOME on Mar 10 '08 at 11:11am

Oh man, I haven't been this attracted to a cartoon pin-up since Jessica Rabbit stole my heart and made my sack drop out of me back in the day!

Also, it's hilarious how ANY ethnicity's celebration that turns into a massive drinking game suddenly becomes EVERYONE'S holiday.

Watch, your town will probably claim to be Mexican on Cinco De Mayo this year too.

littlem on Mar 10 '08 at 11:11am

i like her better with no teeth line, like in the sketch :P

FRICKINAWESOME on Mar 10 '08 at 11:11am

Also, I'm disturbed my icon is apparently the fatter, goateed version of yours now.

Mike4507 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:13am

They'll drink, Evan, but claiming to be Mexican is a whole different thing.

Noodlegirl on Mar 10 '08 at 11:13am

that's hot.

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:14am

i hear ya littlem.
girls with bunny teeth are hott, but i'm still workin on how to demonstrate it properly.
plus she's a leprechaun, so...

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:15am

yeah fricken, i bumped an old blog of yours just to say my profile is suing your profile, and maybe mike4507 by default.

squatterjohn on Mar 10 '08 at 11:15am

Irish girls are sexy.

Wiffler on Mar 10 '08 at 11:16am

I've always found that any holiday that you're obligated to have fun on always turns out to be not that fun...

danrule on Mar 10 '08 at 11:16am

Haha I'm not fretting, I'm impressed how well you do vectors and analog line work, two different beasts.

phones on Mar 10 '08 at 11:18am

good job as usual dude!

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:20am

y'know the more i think about it, there's no better day to have a zombie outbreak and have it take hold because no one would notice...
the drunken shuffling, the vomiting of blood, the coming after you to 'hug' you, the heightened police prescence, the large crowd of people fenced in down on river street
(yes, we fence in the drunks with chainlink, for the most part now)

i smell a movie.

shirtflirt on Mar 10 '08 at 11:22am

st paddy's day is rad

only for the green-ness

Noodlegirl on Mar 10 '08 at 11:23am

my roommate also hates st. patrick's day..

but for a stupid reason. she is scared of irish people and midgets so she's just out of luck.

Mike4507 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:25am

Travis, did you happen to go to the Ben Folds show Friday?

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:30am

no- i didn't realize it was so soon, plus i rarely go to concerts.

i heard kid rock and elton john were in town, and both surprised me
elton:why here?
kid:what has he done since 2000?

mezo on Mar 10 '08 at 11:34am

What abotu Cinco De Mayo? The Mexicans have not infiltrated Savannah yet?

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:37am

oh they are here, but the mexican resteraunts keep going out of business or changing hands.
cinco is def. growing though.

mezo on Mar 10 '08 at 11:39am

I miss real authentic greasy Mexican food. Up here it's like Tex-Mex healthy shit.

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 11:42am

there's like one mexi-spanic crime family here that owns almost every resteraunt in town so it all uses the same ingredients and all tastes the same.
and when the health board closes one, they just spring up somewhere else.

not stereotyping, just talking about savannah, as i have witnessed.

FRICKINAWESOME on Mar 10 '08 at 11:57am

Trav: I smell another zombie idea coming out of you!

Mike4507 on Mar 10 '08 at 12:00pm

Kid Rock and Elton John? Please tell me one opened for the other.

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 1:53pm

oh- i found out i will have the whole day off this year.
no doing nothing at work half a day then leaving when the parade starts only to be trapped downtown.

that's good.

avalanche_lily on Mar 10 '08 at 1:57pm

Naw-tay! I have a soft spot for redheads. Love the stockings.

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 2:12pm

is the soft spot on the back of your head, like a baby?

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 2:14pm

holy shit i just thought of a good sicko design for luckythreadz:

I HAVE A SOFT SPOT FOR BABIES

with a crying,photorealistic lineart babyhead, and a hand poking it's index finger into the soft spot at the back of the head, which is caving in a little.

avalanche_lily on Mar 10 '08 at 2:43pm

The soft spot is actually on the top pf their head. I'm not sure where my soft spot is. Probably somewhere between my heart and my loins.

Go for it, Travis.

avalanche_lily on Mar 10 '08 at 2:44pm

^of

avalanche_lily on Mar 10 '08 at 2:45pm

aka fontanels

avalanche_lily on Mar 10 '08 at 2:46pm

While I'm looking at baby heads...

g3rpander on Mar 10 '08 at 2:47pm

Looks smashing.

snaggle tooth on Mar 10 '08 at 2:49pm

so if you pretend the people in the streets are zombies, does that mean you go out there with your shotty and give'em a little buckshot to the dome?

travis76 on Mar 10 '08 at 2:50pm

no i board myself inside until they come clawing at my door.

Robotron5 on Mar 10 '08 at 2:55pm

you need a peephole in your door, or does that cause a structural weakness for when they come a knockin?

littlem on Mar 10 '08 at 2:57pm

ryannnnnnn

SEVEN-HUNDRED on Mar 10 '08 at 4:02pm

Whoa!

d3d on Mar 10 '08 at 4:04pm

The best compliments I ever received here (that haven't been deleted):

-from the master:
--------Glennz on Jul 12 '06 at 2:53am
I think there will be a few different subs in the top 20 once all the loves threadless have finsihed scoring. Travis has to be up there somewhere, his last few subs have lifted the bar on here--------

-from the co-owner:
skaw on Jul 07 '06
yea this is super neat, i would wear it

-from a blogger:

starr226 on Jul 07 '06
I don't know if anyone else who's been hanging around threadless for far too long (like myself) gets really excited when under-printed designers put out a sure thing - but I know I do. I feel the same way about this as when I first saw "No Peeking" by Jublin. That "THIS is a print and it couldn't happen to a better person."
Enjoy your...uh...12 pack of Red Bull.
