Gonzo Hunter S. Thompson t-shirt
Description: The Gonzo symbol on the Hunter S. Thompson t-shirt on the left is nearly identical to the image that Thompson used on campaign posters during his run for sheriff of Aspen, Colorado. The term "Gonzo" refers to a style of journalistic research, popularized by Thompson, where the author participates in the subject action instead of being a passive observer. This term was the inspiration for the name of Benicio Del Toro's Fear and Loathing character, Dr. Gonzo. Below the Gonzo logo is a Hunter S. Thompson quote that has been related to Thompson himself.

Fear and Loathing Singapore Sling t-shirt
Description: These Singapore Sling Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas t-shirts will have you reciting the opening sentence of Hunter S. Thompson's book, "We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold," or in this case, the Singapore Sling. This is also similar to the first line of the Terry Gilliam Fear and Loathing movie adaptation starring Johnny Depp. These Hunter S. Thompson shirts are the ideal choice for fans of the book or movie. Link to: Fear and Loathing Singapore Sling

Donkey Kong Country tee
Description: The front of this Hunter S. Thompson t-shirt displays a mash up of everyone's favorite video game character, Mario, in Donkey Kong Country. Sunglasses shade his eyes. It's easy to imagine him saying a quote like, "Buy the flower, enjoy the power," or something to that effect. Hold up your HST Gonzo fist proudly in the air as you reach for bouncing stars, falling mushrooms, gold coins and Yoshi eggs. This design is available on both men's and women's tees in a variety of styles, including v-neck Ts, sweatshirts, and long sleeves. Link to: Donkey Kong Country
BUY
We Can't Stop Here, this is Bat Country
Description: The front of this tee features Johnny Depp's classic Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas quote, "We can't stop here. This is bat country." It is the most popular quote from the movie, and it is easily recognizable by even the most passive fan. The front of this T also features an orange, a red, and a brown bat to the left of the text. The design's offbeat images and unsteady font effectively invoke the wired and dissociative tone of the movie. This Fear and Loathing Bat Country t-shirt is available in other colors, including an all white design on a black tee. Link to: We Can't Stop Here, this is Bat Country
BUY
This is Muppet Country t-shirt
Description: These Muppet Country Hunter S. Thompson t-shirts are an obvious play on "Gonzo" Journalism. You might run across these two at Bazooko's Circus, a fictional circus-themed casino in Las Vegas. Raoul (Johnny Depp) and Dr. Gonzo (Benicio Del Toro) go inside Bazooko's Circus while they are high from an ether binge. Depp's character lets us know that Bazooko's Circus reflects a deeper meaning, stating, "Bazooko's Circus is what the whole hep world would be doing Saturday nights if the Nazis had won the war. This was the Sixth Reich." Link to: This is Muppet Country
BUY
Raoul Duke T-Shirt
Description: This cool Hunter S. Thompson t-shirt features a caricature of Raoul Duke. Dress in it to repeat the Johnny Depp quote, "Let's get down to brass tacks. How much for the ape?" Wear this tee as you practice Gonzo journalism, where the author participates in, and at times even instigates, the experiences of his subject. A similar symbol to the one on the Gonzo Fear and Loathing t-shirts displayed earlier was used by Thompson on fliers for his bid to be sheriff of Aspen. Link to: Raoul Duke
BUY
Fear and Loathing Costume
Description: Instead of a tee, wear this Fear and Loathing costume that is nearly identical to the outfit Johnny Depp wears in the movie. The Raoul Duke costume includes the button down shirt, hat, sunglasses and cigarette holder. Disguise yourself as you repeat the Johnny Depp movie quote, "The decision to flee came suddenly." Pair the costume with a Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas t-shirt for the perfect combo gift, or buy it alone to wear on Halloween. Link to: Fear and Loathing Costume

Hunter S. Thompson Fear and Loathing t-shirt
Description: Prior to the Terry Gilliam movie, Hunter S. Thompson had put the Fear and Loathing movie rights in the hands of a girlfriend. She was approached by animator Ralph Bakshi, who wanted to do an adaptation as a feature-length animated movie, in the tradition of Ralph Steadman's illustrations from the book. Instead, she opted for the bigger live-action Terry Gilliam Hollywood movie. This Hunter S. Thompson Bat Country Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas t-shirt was inspired by Johnny Depp's version in the movie. Link to: Hunter S. Thompson Fear and Loathing
BUY
Gonzo Fist tee
Description: Raise your Gonzo fist to the Hunter S. Thompson t-shirt above. This design stylishly captures the symbol for Gonzo Journalism. It was created by the man behind Fear and Loathing, who put onto paper the memorable quote, "Buy the ticket, take the ride." This excerpt alludes to the time that Hunter S. Thompson traveled to Las Vegas with his attorney Oscar Zeta Acosta (Dr. Gonzo in the movie). He was supposed to cover the Mint 400 off-road race. Wear this tee to show your support for author Hunter S. Thompson, who once campaigned to become sheriff of Aspen, Colorado. Support the Fear and Loathing movie and Hunter S. Thompson's Gonzo Journalism style. Link to: Gonzo Fist
