Record Breaking Number of Fans in T-shirts!

Tuesday, October 12th, 2010 by madmags

Leave it to my crazy sister Kate to wrangle this many Mad Maggie t-shirt wearers — 16 in t-shirts of the 19 in the photo. That is THE MOST in any one photo we have in our “Worldwide Skulls & Magpies” gallery to date wearing the Mad Ms colors. Impressive!

This is GDub’s and my Schwäbisch Familie:
