Republique Du Tchad T shirt

In the center of the African continent lies a small nation called The Repulique du Tchad, or Chad for short.

West of there, across the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean and 26 miles south of Cape Cod lies another Republic of Chad. However, this one exists seasonally, from Memorial day to Labor day each year. Around the same time the humingbirds visit.

On the island of Nantucket a fascinating transformation occurs each spring as throngs of hormone saturated adolescent males descend upon the island. They come in search of suitable mating partners and tests of bravado in an effort to find their place within the hierarchy of north eastern coed society.

Generally, they can be spotted by day along the islands sandy shores, engaed in traditional courting rituals such as football throwing and spike ball. The females -called Beckies- look on in hopes of securing a mate capable of providing them with the lifestyles they have grown accustomed to.

Afternoons find the Chads sharing the community watering hole (Cisco Brewers) with the other island inhabitants, re-hydrating in preparation for the evenings hunt. This hunt usually involves more courting, more bravado, and hopefully, if one is lucky, a chance at a reproductive encounter behind a large Hydrangea.

If a person is willing to put the time in and stay up late, Chads can often be spotted sleeping on their beloved sidewalk bench's between the hours of one and six A.M.

Nantuckets own nature special, minus the David Attenborough naration.

Here is the shirt. Wear it with pride and give thanks for the opportunity to be in such an awesome place as this.
