Vote On A “Man Killing Mastodon” T-Shirt Design!

I recently did a video about how Nebraska got the Cornhusker nickname. Part of that video included a “bonus nickname“ and that bonus nickname is “Man Killing Mastodons“.

This is because our beloved Cornhuskers at one point in 1921 were referred to as “Man Killing Mastodons” by a sportswriter in the Pittsburgh Dispatch.

If you don’t know what I’m talking about please watch the video.

I thought it would be cool to come up with a T-shirt design for MAN KILLING MASTODONS, so I did just that.

I solicited a number of different designs through Designcrowd.
