Will the signature come out?? I have this shirt that I got signed last year, but I've only worn it once because I'm afraid to wash it. Does anyone know of any tricks that will keep the ink on the shirt? :)

I still have ink on my legs from when I did Man Watch a couple of years ago. In my boredom I would write on my pants, that was a few years ago. I got stuff like Shania Rules and fan for life on my jeans. :p

Remember that pic of my Terri t shirt I showed you? I wear that t shirt almost every week, and the signature doesn't come out, but it does fade, along with the rest of the shirt.

My mom just simply grathers the area of fabric where the signature is and puts an elastic around it. Then takes a little plastic sandwich bag or saran wrap and ties that around the little ball of fabric, followed by another elastic, then hand washes the shirt. The little area of the signature doesn't get clean, but that works if you are still nervous about the signature fading :)

That is not a bad idea.

You could always not wash it, that way nobody will borrow it and never return it.

I have been passing this. I've got three gaves and two shirts signed, and never wear them. Well, I wore twice one of these, but I never washed them out:hide:
