Albany is eggcellent everywhere
We spotted a person wearing an "Albany is Eggcellent" shirt yesterday in Uncommon Grounds. The shirts are made by New York Old School and, as we heard, they were designed by local artist Michael Campion.
Get this: after we tweeted that we saw someone wearing the shirt, we heard from other people that they were wearing their "Eggcellent" shirt right at that moment. In NYC (we think). And Denmark.
(Thanks, Laura and Mike and Harith and Pete!)
Later on AOA: New York Old School is selling the shirts again (August 2011)
Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.

How strange. I was wearing mine yesterday too.
NYOS also makes the always-classy Area Code shirts.

If you have any eggstra cash, I highly recommend this tribute to Mayor Suntan's City:

I picked up three from NYOS before heading over here this semester. I have the 518, Albany is Eggcellent, and Moo York shirts. Takes more than a little while to explain them to the Danes and other international students, but at least the outline of the state on the Moo York shirt has come in handy on a number of occasions when I get blank stares saying that I'm from Upstate New York.

Does anybody know if these are still being sold anywhere? I just checked the New York Old School website and it's down. Hoping to buy some as Christmas gifts. Thanks!
