Wankers !!
 
At concord mills mall, In one of our major sports chains, you can buy a baseball cap emblazened with the word WANKERS;

As you can imagine this caused me and our family mass hysteria. Turns out that the WANKERS, are one of the collegiate teams that this nation has in mass abundance.

Ive come across many different word use, such as fags but this one takes the biscuit.

In my local Sports Authority (big chain in NJ) they sell the "Shag Master", which is a golf ball feeder.

Yes, I giggled...

Not in the same league as the above, but there is a chain of Texas-style BBQ restaurants in California called "Armadillo Willy's".

Kind of puts you off, doesn't it...

And there's "Fanny Farmers" chocolates.

It would be funny if it where true, but it is a made up college and you can buy the shirts on most joke websites or shops.

Fanny Farmer chocolates on the other hand are yummy!

Is this (the Wankers College shirt) perhaps just the gift for those back in the UK? Been there and here's the t-shirt (OK, it's long sleeved) sort of thing :D :D ...

There was a Beaver College near Philadelphia, but they recently changed their name.
