It really doesn't take much to amuse the Internet.
But sometimes, a narrative comes along that just sort of writes itself.

Of course, this t-shirt was inevitable, as the act of tripping just lends itself so easily to such mockery.
What was equally inevitable is the response from Duke.
If anyone's going to profit from the name and likeness of a NCAA student-athlete, it's going to be his own university.
Amirite?
Smack Apparel appears to be have no intention of backing down, claiming First Amendment protection, so this should be fun to follow.
Let the free flag fly!
