Donkey Kong Kill Screen Tee Is Awesomely Obscure

By Andrew Liszewski

If you’re into t-shirts featuring completely obscure cultural references that maybe 1 in a 1,000 people will actually get, look no further than this awesome Donkey Kong kill screen tee from Zazzle.com. For the other 999 people in my random sampling that have no idea what it means, the line comes from the most excellent video game documentary The King Of Kong when professional gamer Brian Kuh was letting others know that they’d have the chance to see an actual Donkey Kong ‘kill screen’ as it’s known, in person. Now if you haven’t seen The King Of Kong it might not come across as being that exciting, but somehow in the documentary Brian Kuh (and others) make it seem like one of man’s greatest accomplishments. (You can’t help but get caught up in the excitement.)

The design is printed on an authentic American Apparel 100% fine jersey cotton t-shirt for all you brand-conscious hipsters out there, and is actually available in a wide range of colors, not just the lemon pictured here. You can order one from Zazzle.com starting at just $20.10.
