Battle of the Fang T-shirts – We Need Your Help
By Lividity on Jul 30 2010 | 46 Comments »As y’all know, the Battle of the Fang has been raging since True Blood season three began. When we first started this competition, I don’t think any of us imagined how successful it would become. We’ve already raised more than $17,000 for charity, with half the season left to go. Hurrah for True Blood fans!
Now it’s time to start thinking about T-shirt designs. Here’s how this works, so pay attention:
If Team Viking wins, they get to pick the designs for the two sexy participants. If Team Bill wins (that’s us, folks) we get to design the shirts both boys will be wearing.
So what we need are ideas for both the shirts in the event that Team Bill wins this thing. We will pick the best slogan for Stephen’s winning shirt and we’ll have him choose from the 10 best slogans for Alex’s loser shirt. This might be our chance to get Alex into something tight and pink!
So tell us in the comments: What would you like written on the winner’s & loser’s shirt in the event of a Team Bill victory in Battle of the Fang?
To leave your t-shirt ideas in the off chance that the Viking actually pulls this thing off, go here.
Oh, and if you haven’t donated yet, you have until the season finale!
Donate to Gulf Aid (Team Bill)
Donate to SOS Children’s Villages (Team Eric)
WHATTTT???? how did bill managed to even and also get so much ahead help eric please but whoeer wins it is for a good cause so that is what matters and money will have helped both causes LOL
It was rigged….
If you had anything to do with how hard this thing was to coordinate, well… you wouldn’t be so flippant and wrong.
The shirt that Alex should wear if Stephen wins should say “Bill’s Bitch”
I like that one. I’m also fond of gattopardo’s “Bill’s Other Blonde.”
TEAM BILL ALL THE WAY! Donate to GulfAid to help people and wildlife along the oil-soaked Gulf coast! WE WILL WIN!
eheheh thanks NH and you’re right, the “e” in the Blond is needed ! *blows kiss*
Stephen’s shirt, if he wins, should say, “It’s good to be the king”
Loser (Skarsgard) : Moyer hurts soo good
Winner (Moyer) : I kicked the Viking’s ass
I like these, Marta!!
Thanks! ;)
for the viking’s tight pink t-shirt
Bill’s other Blond
Slattern 4 Stephen
Moyer’s Minion
Up for twisting!
Sucker for Compton-candy
Bill is Mine!
Team Arkansas
Bill’s Big Easy
I throw my vote behind Patrice’s “It’s good to be King” t-shirt for Stephen… maybe slightly modified to say “It’s good to be Battle of The Fang King”.
And I absolutely adore gattpardo’s “Slattern for Stephen” slogan.
“Slattern for Stephen” is just awesome!
But I’m still partial to “Moyer’s Muffin”.

LOL! OMG, “Viking Slayer” is a good one!
gattopardo… keep ‘em coming! I love all of your slogans for both Alex and Stephen! Fun stuff.
“The fangs have spoken.” hee hee – awesome
thanks TruB, you’re too kind ;)
Gattopardo rules> “Bill’s Other Blond” (or maybe “Blonde” if we want it girly). So droll, and suggestively slash, but cool and not insulting.
“Yield: You Know You Want To” is also killer. I still think blond tag is all-round perfect.
acanthus, thank you, you’re very kind. I had to look up “blonde tag” and almost fell off my chair. you wi’kid woman you! ROFLMAO
Oh God, I went to see what they’re suggesting on “the other side”, and while our suggestions are playful & funny, theirs are plain mean!
Here is what one said:
Moyer´s:
Mr Skarsgards fang polisher
“The stool? It´s for my Eric scenes!”
Skarsgard´s:
These fangs were made in Sweden, polished by Moyer, and used in a Cookie.
“The loupe? It´s for my Bill scenes!”
Can you belive that?! They attack Stephen about his height! Amazing… :(
Don’t worry, darling! Alex would never pick a shirt that demeans Stephen in any way. But he won’t have to worry about that because Steve’s gonna do all the picking :).
You’re completely right. It’s Stephen who will choose anyway.
But some people are just insulting…
Well, they only have *one* person submitting so far! Hopefully, they’ll get some that are more clever and nice. Not that they’ll get used because Stephen will win! ;-)
I applaud your humor and creativity, and keeping things in the spirit of fun. Screw those who would be mean – this should all be fun. Mean people suck.
Steve’s-
There’s a new sheriff in town!
Other vampires wish they were me!
Moyer FTW!
Alex’s-
I am Bill’s! (or Stephen’s)
Bill’s pet
Bill made lutefisk out of me! (Hee hee, he *is* Swedish!)
lo TBObsessed
following the swedish thread, I thought of
Stephen’s Smörgåsbord
you just opened the door to a whole world of possibilities eheheheheh
Pretty lame stuff so far from the AS fan think tank, but the contest is young. . Also raises what i think is a a guideline issue: whatever the slogan, whoever wins or loses, the slogan should be Bill/Eric – centric, not Stephen/Alex.
“Bill’s Other Blond(e)” is really the A-List benchmark, IMO. I’ll throw in a riff on that – “Bill’s True Blonde” – (just because I want to play this Good Game)
LOL I love that ! True blonde!!! genius!
I think your proposed guideline is spot-on, although it does limit the plays on alliteration.
But it will keep some of the meanness in check or at least limit it to the characters.
I still like “Moyer’s Muffin” or “Bill’s Other Blonde ” if Team Bill win , sorry i mean when they win . And yes definitely in pink .
And i like “Battle of the Fang King” for the winner’s t-shirt – whoever it may be !
Am not creative enough to think of own alternatives and have also had one too many ciders to drink too ….
Guys, you tried … But even pink, Eric does not lose the pose.
Really fun, Moyer’s muffin!
Bills’ Other Blonde all the way!
Anyone know when the contest ends?
Battle of the Fang ends the night of the season 3 finale of TrueBlood.
Bill’s Winners shirt:
No Assembly Required (IKEA joke)
Eric’s Losers Shirt:
To Operate, Insert Allen Key here…..
Bill as winner:
“Eric Northman: My sheriff, my friend, my B*tch”
“Eric took me to forever young and stole this shirt for me” (LOL Debbie & Coot)
“Why did Eric cross the road? Because I told him to!”
Eric as loser:
“Bill doesnt sparkle. He effin SHINES!… True story.”
“Bill is MINE! Touch him and I will rip your head off and throw it in the pool… and i will have FUN doing it…”
“Lady of the Evening”
“Bill Compton? One time, he punched me in the face… It was AWESOME”
Paired ideas:
Eric: “This shirt is so fetch!”
Bill: “Eric! Stop trying to make fetch happen! It’s not going to happen!”
Eric: “I’ve been shot Bill! Suck the bullet out”
Bill: “Tell that to a Norse” (really lame but w/e)
Not as good as the ones posted before me, but I tried. Go Team Beel!! or as how Lorena puts it: Team Weelyum!!
How about: “Straight Outta Compton”
So easy if Bill wins Eric’s T-shirt should say Fangbanger for Team Bill! Bill’s T-shirt should say Eric is my Fangbanger.
How about we be nice and just have a simple shirt that would be good for both of them
