Endless Entertainment: Make Your Own Obamicon

January 15, 2009     Posted in Cool Stuff

250px-obamaposter.jpgWith President Elect Obama’s inauguration only days away, the country is aflutter with excitement. The first black president! The change we need! The economic crisis is going to end! (Ok, that one may just be wishful thinking.)


By CC Staff

Obama merchandise has been selling like hot cakes (or Natty Lights on a college campus) as people prepare for history in the making.

And we found something that will let you be a part of it all.

Remember Shepard Fairey’s iconic Obama poster? Come on, that thing was everywhere. It was the Obama campaign. (And it’s right there. To the left.)

Well, now you can make one of your very own!

Yes, it’s kinda dorky and sorta pointless, but it’s Thursday and classes are boring and you’d rather do anything than your required reading for tomorrow’s class. (Yeah, sucks to have class on Friday, doesn’t it?)

Even if you don’t love the man, we all love taking pictures of ourselves, no? Check out a few of our favorites, including our very own, below!

  Make your own and email them to Lauren@CollegeCandy.com. We’ll post ‘em as we get ‘em!

    Wow, I really wish people would stop commenting on CC posts about how they've already read about the topic somewhere else. SOMEONE has to post about a topic first, and it can't always be CC…it's the nature of the blogosphere.

    Basically, GET OVER IT PEOPLE.
