Fraternity "groupie" T-shirt

Hi! My boyfriend is a Lambda Chi Alpha and I'm his chapter's White Rose Queen, so I told them I would come up with a shirt for their "groupies."

My plan was to have the front say "Lambda Chi Ladies" and the back say "Raise your hand if you're a Lambda Chi Lady -- If you're not, raise your standards" but it was pointed out to me that a sorority recently used this slogan in their Bid Day shirt. So I'm kind of stuck.

If you know of any quirky sayings good for a shirt like this, or if you have seen some shirts around, please help me out! I've been looking for design ideas, but can't really find anything for the groupie-style shirts! Thanks so much in advance!

Use the front as is.

Back:

100 % with the best.

I love My LXs.

I made the right choice.


By the way, I think you made a good choice, but I am one sided on this view myself!

"If I were a guy, I'd be a Beta Theta Pi" sounds just as good...how about "I heart Lambda Chi" it's cute and simple

I can *sort of* understand why a female would want such a shirt if her boyfriend were a member of the organization, but who else are you giving them to? Females who hang out at the house? (Sorry - I don't understand why someone would want to be known as a "groupie.")

At our college, the Lambda Chi's are stand up guys- the kind of guys that you want to be around. Most of the guys are like brothers and/or boyfriends to us girls, so we just wanted a shirt to show it and possibly help them out.

How about:

Front: We Love Lambda Chi Guys
Back: We Can't Help Ourselves

I dont know how well this would flow with Lamda Chi but at my undergrad the Sig Taus wanted to make a shirt like that for all the close friends of the house that were girls. it would have said

Front: Rush Sig Tau?
Back: Would if I could

Personally, I don't like the "groupie" terminology... but that's just me

A bunch of the LX girlfriends at my old school made shirts that had "If I were a guy, I'd be a Lambda Chi". It was cute. The girls loved them, and the guys thought the shirts were cute.

Yeah, that's kind of why I have questions about the whole thing. I also can't see myself wearing a t-shirt with another organization's name/nickname on it, unless it's an event shirt or something of that nature. Different strokes, I suppose.
