EuroVision: Undies for Losers

Earlier this week, Chris told you about the Austrian effort to get the team to withdraw before they humiliate the country. Today we bring you underwear to support the cause.

Because I’m sure we all know a lot of men who want to wear the words “Hosted by Losers” on their skivvies.

Austrian graphic-designer Stefanie Schoeffmann presents a mens underpants with a slogan reading ‘hosted by losers’ in Vienna this November 22, 2007 file photo. Austrians underwhelmed by their soccer teams’ sporting prowess can make light of the matter with a range of clothing and underwear in the national colours bearing the slogan “hosted by losers”. Produced by Schoeffmann, 27, the slogan mimics the official slogan used by the German organisers of the 2006 World Cup of “hosted by friends”. “This is just another way of celebrating the fact that we are staging Euro 2008.” Schoeffmann said.
