I haven't been recognized with mine, guess that's what you get for wearing it while walking around BYU Idaho, someone has asked me if they are a terrorist group though....idiot

I saw someone at Disney World with a Giant Bomb tee when I was there a couple weeks back. He disappeared into the crowd before I could high five him though.

I need me one of these mystical "Giant Bomb" hoodies. Just because I want random people to just high five me. Minus terrorists. I don't want them to high five me.

I love your username, OP. I'd like to see some actual photos of these hoodies, I'm thinking about buying one.

Why did you not shoot him?

Shoot him with your love, that is.

Really surprised I haven't drawn any attention walking around DigiPen with mine. For anyone curious about them - they are super comfy.

@nightriff: Equally quiet in Provo. Some of my roommates asked what Lincoln Force is, but I told them it was complicated.

Thought at least ONE person would recognize and yell "I'M A WIZARD!" or something but nope

Never seen one in the wild, I've worn my bomb shirt many times but have never been recognized.

#14 Posted by SotoSaki (253 posts) - 2 months, 22 days ago

I wear my flight club shirt all the time, but no one's ever said anything to me. Being that the college I go to has an aviation program, I do get some weird looks because of it which I find pretty amusing.

There's a duder who hangs out in one of the buildings I frequent at Auburn University all the time, but I've never said anything to him.

@living4theday258: It's part of a necklace, bro. Girls in real life sometimes wear them.

@mb: I thought it was the stitches they used the keep the head on the torso.

@living4theday258: Clearly where her head has been sewn back on. Any necklace excuses are just a cover.

It wasn't me but I also live in Austin

Hello

#21 Posted by MariachiMacabre (5372 posts) - 2 months, 22 days ago

Well....this thread got kind of hostile all of sudden...

Men can't wear necklaces?

That v has gone dangerously deep and I fear the worst

#25 Edited by EpicSteve (6125 posts) - 2 months, 22 days ago

I've been approached twice by people at school while wearing my hoodie.

#26 Posted by Sanity (1509 posts) - 2 months, 21 days ago

I live in rural PA, so fat chance of anyone know what Giant Bomb is.

#27 Posted by notdavid (542 posts) - 2 months, 21 days ago

Shoot him with your love, that is.

Dude. You can't shoot your love in public.

Sorry to bump an old thread but what is this picture of?
Is that the hoody with a zip? Is it an old picture or a new picture? or a jacket? I'm lost here

If I look at this picture here
http://store.giantbomb.com/collections/frontpage/products/giant-bomb-logo-hoodie-new

I don't like how MAMMOTH the GIANT BOMB logo is, it's not particularly subtle - whereas whatever you're posting a pic of here, looks much better
So if I order a hoody, what will arrive? What I linked to or this hoody / jacket / zip combo thing which looks better (albeit, upside down)

Thanks all, hope someone can reply.

#29 Posted by abrasion (35 posts) - 22 days, 22 hours ago

Actually here's 2 better shots.

This one? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/A-7zutGCcAEXuFV.jpg

A necklace... I don't even... what the hell did you think it was?

#31 Posted by CornBREDX (3421 posts) - 22 days, 21 hours ago

Wo

This is freaky

I never saw this forum thread but I just moved from that exact location about a month ago a few blocks away (bought a house, yay me)

It was probably me. I totally have a Giant bomb hoodie as well!

#32 Edited by zFUBARz (468 posts) - 22 days, 20 hours ago

Ninja bump solves the mystery!

#34 Edited by ThePhantomnaut (5860 posts) - 22 days, 20 hours ago

I'm pretty sure its the one in the one in the store's photo. I would say that Giant Bomb logo was put on somehow? Or maybe it was before my time here.

#36 Posted by CornBREDX (3421 posts) - 22 days, 20 hours ago

@abrasion: The hoodie I got is the most recent one which does not have a zipper and has a large Giant Bomb logo on the front (which a lot of us have been asking for for a while so that's why I got it like... end of last year or something).

I assume if they are still selling hoodies it's probably the zipper-less one that I have. I will get a pic if you want.

I'm not really a hoody person - but the zip one is vastly better - I want something kind of subtle, I'm in my mid 30's you know? Not some GIANT LOGO SAYING I LOVE WEIRD THINGS HEY GUYS.

I'll skip I guess - maybe they'll bring it back eventually?

@abrasion: That hoodie was a "special edition" not available for purchase, there were only about 50 of them made for staff & friends of the site back in the early days. This was around 2009.

It's the only nice one though :/ They should un-special edition it.
