The most controversy comes from Drury Lane itself, where Jim Petchard, the legendary baker behind the most well-known muffins in the country, is up in arms about the shirt. "Whenever I'm out, people know me," Jim insists. "First one, then two, three, four... they come up and say hello." Drury Lane's Mayor, who has been petitioning for years to change the small town's name to "Drurydale," echoes Petchard's sentiments. "It's safe to say that we all know the muffin man," he said, responding to the shirt's implication that some percentage of Drury Lane was unfamiliar with the famed bread baron. "I don't consider it slander, as such," the baker insists, "but if there are indeed people in Drury Lane who have not experienced my muffins, I would love for them to come forward. The love in my baked goods should be shared."
A smaller scandal has erupted due to the questionable shirt choice. A vocal contingent have lashed out on the blue template used to display the design. "Something just doesn't look right about it," remarked Heather Pickens, a veteran woot derby entrant. "I think that part of it is how the colors mesh, but it also looks wrong drawn digitally and not with colored pencils." Other more outraged designers have remarked "this is totally g a y, and only lame girls and emos would wear it."
AdderXYU's agent remains mum on the issue of the Drury Laneans, but states that those who wish to voice an opinion on a more appropriate shirt color can do so at his failed design blog. "AdderXYU strives to understand how his designs can improve, and welcomes constructive criticism regarding the color matter. In the meantime, he will be cracking champagne and awaiting the derby 16 folder on Best Losers."

Hahahah I like it - but I know the Dutch version of the song far better. He lives in Scheveningen! God now I have it playing in my head.
I'd buy it. I work with dumb people who would stare at it and not understand, and I like their sheeplike looks of confusion.
Sheeplike confusion is among the top reasons to do anything.
