Buff Alert:

Rant Discovery -- Last Chance to Own a Piece of History!

2 forgotten boxes of "sold out" 2005 Rant t-shirts and hats found -- get yours for just ten bucks, while they last!

 

During a recent large-area search drill in the Rant's 10,000 square foot world headquarters, the Rant Training Committee came across two long-forgotten boxes of original Rant T-Shirts and Racing Hats! Introduced with the launch of the Rant way back in late 2005 -- and believed to be forever sold out -- these limited-edition collector's items are now available for the last time ever at the ridiculously low price of only Ten Bucks apiece! Our slate-grey (and stone cold!) shirts are Top-quality Gildan heavyweight "Ultra Cotton" tees, with our incredible full-color screen printed "Goin' Inside, Paid Only In Pride" image on back. The distinctive Rant maltese cross is proudly displayed on the front (sizes Large and XLarge only...that's all that's left!). Here's just some of the buzz created over this incredible discovery:

"This is a shirt we can believe in." Barack Obama

"I heartily endorse this product or service." Peter Griffin

"Just buy the damn shirts so I can get my freaking cedar closet back already." Mrs. Rant Boss

Rant Shirts and Racing Hats are now just Ten Bucks apiece!

Visit the Rant Shop to order yours now -- payment is quick and easy via PayPal!

This is the Racing Hat (below) -- ideal for putting on top of your head!
