    Leave a comment, get a t-shirt. Sounds good to me!

    I have a feeling people will stop you on the street and say, “You’re a HARO subscriber too!” if you wear these out. Will be interesting to see the responses.

    What can I add – certainly nothing particularly brilliant at this point – and what’s worse, I can’t even promise to wear the shirt on Oprah or something that would get tons of exposure.

    However – I can promise to wear it while on a cruise in Hawaii in November – once please – not for the whole trip.

    Thanks for a great service.

    Hi All,
    I’m a newbie here as well – discovered helpareporter.com when a friend sent me a request that was perfect for me and I got interviewed the next day. Fun!

    I’d love a t-shirt (M) and, if I get one, will take it as a sign that it’s time to hit the open road. Meanwhile, check out my site to see what other fabulous travel finds are being made by those who wander the earth.

    Hey, everybody loves a free shirt, and I think I found the coolest place, or at least the place with the craziest backdrop….. Peter Pan Mini Golf in Austin, Texas. Open since 1948, this is the place to BYOB and enjoy great putt-putt. The course is full of crazy giant statues of dinosaurs, pirates, a giant white rabbit, Peter Pan, and more…

    Here’s a link to some pics of the scene…. Lemme know what character you want me to pose by!
    http://www.agilitynut.com/minigolf/tx.html

    If the mini golf scene is not cool enough for you, I can always go pose by “the” round rock in Round Rock, Texas.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I....._Texas.jpg

    Wearing a HARO shirt on that rock would probably be the most exciting pr that rock has gotten since the town was named after it in 1854.

    Thanks a bunch for the daily HARO love and I need a XL, pretty please.

    Does it come in a color other than white? If so, I’ll take one. If not, I’ll wait for the next order. :-)

    You should hold a HARO t-shirt design contest…unless you already did that and I missed it.

    Of course I’d love one. But I can’t find Meagan’s email address. :-( If she reads this, I’d love a medium. And I’d promise to be photographed wearing it on vacations (maybe even underwater?), at concerts (Dave Matthews Band anyone), at my house (well, I think it’s a cool place), etc.

    What a great idea! I’d like to sport a HARO t-shirt at the Society of American Travel Writers national conference in Houston this October.
