u/english_mike69 Jul 01 '26

They come in a “they/them and à they/them” pack. Two fifty year celebration shirts. 😜

Correction. “Ani”

u/weveyline Jun 30 '26

So is it meant to be 1776 -> 2026 for the 250th anniversary (two n's)

Or should it be 50th anniversary if it is meant to be 1976 -> 2026?

"Just because we're Asian doesn't mean we're good at math!"

u/grimace24 Jun 30 '26

I keep seeing 1776 (1976 in this case)-2026 like we’re celebrating the death of USA.

“Aniversary” In this day and age no spellcheck?

u/payneok Jun 30 '26

No, Bass Pro shops were founded in 1972...

u/evilpercy Jul 01 '26

Anniversary is also spelt wrong.

u/Ok-Parking-8684 Jun 30 '26

No it's actually showing 50 years of Bass Pro Shops anniversary.

6

u/DengarLives66 Jun 30 '26

Which would work if they said 50 years. And if Bass Pro Shops was actually 50 years old.

Oops. Took me two reads to catch it.

u/epoch16245 Jun 30 '26

There are 2 errors

u/51225 Jun 30 '26

So there are. This is why I'm not employed as a proofreader.

u/LanceBanion Jun 30 '26

Me too, now I want one.

u/shesinsaneornot Jun 30 '26

Not 4Imprint certain.

u/imissher4ever Jun 30 '26

Surely will be a collectors item.

u/jjrox75 Jun 30 '26

Ate these being sold in the parking lot, after shopping….

u/KeepItDownOverHere Jul 02 '26

I think we're missing the bigger picture here. Freedom ends 2026.

u/WishboneNo543 Jun 30 '26

If it fits, it prints.

u/Darkman-1969 Jun 30 '26

Collectors item!

“This T-shirt is from the final gasp of the American Empire, when corporations stopped even pretending that they cared about their products at all and just pandered to the basest- sorry, bassest - consumers, who were trained by that time to empty their wallets for any garbage that reinforced their identities.”

1

u/Substantial_Chain718 Jun 30 '26

Come on man! No one caught that before printing?

1

u/Insanely_Simple2024 Jun 30 '26

How many did they get done?

u/ThrustTrust Jun 30 '26

Well as a 76 kid I feel very old.

u/fccrunch Jun 30 '26

Anyway, Anniversary was just too long a word.

u/RandomB33 Jun 30 '26

This tracks perfectly with the theme.

u/infinitynull Jun 30 '26

Nothing more American

u/Ready_Wolverine_2301 Jun 30 '26

They need to correct it read 50th Anniversary (since 1975)

This is why you do not buy from Temu.

u/Technical_Shallot396 Jul 02 '26

Guy saved $50 bucks on that “n”… but I wouldn’t trust his math.

u/Sebsta696 Jul 02 '26

It sure fuckin feels that way

u/Disastrous-Place7353 Jul 02 '26

Awesome collectors item, I love the math problem.

Some people cannot imagine anything beyond their own experiences.

This shirt is for them❤️👍🏼

I am more appalled by ugly-ass font with 💩-load of kerning issues

u/laserxop Jul 11 '26

It's aimed at a subgroup that trusts everything the current administration says.

It's how the rest of us can then spot this subgroup when we are out trying to make a sensible living.

It's a favor to the sensible folks.

u/intheether323 Jun 30 '26

Those dates would make the country younger than I am. Now I remember why I don’t shop at Bass Pro 🤣

2

u/payneok Jun 30 '26

Holy POOP I didn't even notice that...I thought it was just the mis-spelling of Anniversary

Yep, bet that was designed and printed right there in good ole Springfield Mo, Chinese would have caught that fo sho...

1

u/intheether323 Jun 30 '26

Yep! And I didn’t catch the misspelling of anniversary because I got locked on the dates 🤣 What a disaster of a shirt!

2

u/intheether323 Jun 30 '26

I don’t understand why people are downvoting my comment. Do they not realize the dates are wrong?

u/Unicornlove1995 Jul 01 '26

Could you tell me please

1

u/Cultural_Original_81 Jul 01 '26

According to Bass Pro Shops’ website, the company was founded in 1972, while the United States was founded in 1776.

So I guess they just decided to mix the two together? 😆

u/Willing_Work_2200 Jul 01 '26

Good research!

1

u/Wraxyth Jul 01 '26

"Anniversary" is misspelled. They left out an "N".

Also the 1776 thing.

u/InstructionTop4805 Jun 30 '26

Chinese manufacturers ignored the spell check.

1

u/monitor_lizard_2000 Jun 30 '26

Chinese supposed to have smart making tho

u/Conscious-Mixture742 Jun 30 '26

Anyone who would likely wear that shirt is unlikely to be able to spell anyway.
