One of the shirts we looked at showed two Montreal dates instead of two Quebec City dates.

Also apparently one had the wrong province for one of the cities in AB, I think.

I wish it was a little clearer, or that there was another V on there somewhere, because from the way I can see it it looks like it could be either or.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. They're awfully close to a B but they really look like they could be Vs.

Mhmm.
I think the angle makes it hard to tell - if the shirt were laid out flat on a table I would definitely be able to see it right.

Any of those old Gothic fonts look like that - Vs are often mistaken for Bs.

Just like in a lot of older English manuscripts, Us are written as Vs.

awww...well that ruins the fun. you're right though.

so i am rephrasing this to "i bought a 30 dollar shirt and the v's look like b's"


...it was actually two other people who pointed this out to me.

they're v's.
i just got out my shirt and looked
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

yea they looked like b's, but if you look at vancouver at the second v and compare it to the first, they look the same.
