Idaho Spudnik Satellite Mission Patch Hoodie
A humorous depiction of a potato as a satellite dubbed "Spudnik-1," with forks serving as antenna, in orbit around the earth. I have met people who do not believe Idaho is a real place. Others know it it is somewhere in flyover territory, but can not place it any better - "Isn't that somewhere near Nebraska?" Mostly, people just think it is a backward place. Not true! Idaho has a space program and placed a satellite in orbit. The scientists and engineers at the Idaho Space Authority dubbed it the Idaho Geosynchronous Agriculture and Forest Fire Observation Tuber, or IGAFFOT for short. IGAFFOT does not exactly roll off the tongue so the governor sponsored a satellite naming contest among the state's elementary school students. There were a number of suggestion including Tater Tot, but almost 99 percent of the students suggested Spudnik; and so it was. During a television interview the director of the Idaho Space Authority explained that potatoes make wonderful observation platforms as they can be mass-produced locally and generally have several eyes. In addition, when the orbit decays the tuber is re-entry baked by friction with the atmosphere. All you need if you find one of these satellites after it comes down is butter, salt and pepper; with maybe a bit of sour cream.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this hoodie. The fabric is light and supple, not the stiff of many sweatshirts. The printing is vibrant and very true to the original artwork. I recommend this to everybody. Beautiful job with the printing. The colors are bright and vivid and true to the artwork.

I love how roomy, soft and cozy this sweatshirt is. I will wear it regularly and love it! One tiny printing error, which turned out to be a design flaw, not a printing flaw. The printing is durable and vivid.

Very warm and soft inside. The sleeves are extra long too which is nice. Very crisp and sharp, the placement was dead on. I'm very happy :)
