Anyway,
I just got back from my Asian vacation.
I was having lunch in a nice restaurant in Shanghai in the French concession when out of the blue some Chinese chap walked out of a neighbouring building wearing a Concord T-Shirt.
I was amazed. Outside of various EVE meets I have attended I have never seen an EVE t-shirt being worn by anyone.
I was going to run up to the guy and quiz him but two things stopped me.
1) He would probably have thought I was crazy as he bought his T-Shirt in a second hand shop...
or
2) The two girls I would have with would have considered me amazingly geeky and never spoken to me again...
So he escaped unmolested...
Have any of you seen random EVE stuff on your travels?

I have seen someone once wearing a Quafe t-shirt while shopping in Sheffield. I regularly wear my Guristas t-shirt while out too. Recently at the shops when stopped by a charity collector for some animal stuff and she said while I was digging for a coin in my pocket 'What the heck is that thing?' Very funny. A woman collecting for animal welfare sees a bunny skull on my t-shirt. Worried she would throw red paint all over me. ------ Shakor Clan Information Portal |

Cool.
I live in Shanghai but haven't seen any Concord or other EVE shirts here, anywhere. In fact I don't know anyone here (yet) who plays EVE.
I'd guess he either plays or he works for CCP.

we had a dress down day at work one friday and i had on one of my eve fanfest t-shirts and one of the partners did a double take and said nothing on my first walk past but on the second walk round he pulled me into his office and asked me where id got it.....
after telling him i was into eve he was quite taken aback as he too was an avid eve fan but had never thought i would be into such a geeky game with what he knew of my antics in and around the office.....i ended up sending him 300mill isk which about 2 years ago was a small fortune to him as he had only just started and hes still thanking me for it to this day lol. its odd how people connect

aah, you're right. when i first got here I was told that was the French Concession, I still make the association in my mind when I think of that area (Hengshan/Dong Ping/the old houses and nearby consulates). I was at Face the other day and I believe that's French Concession though.
btw Moon River at New Factories isn't usually crowded and they play The Cure sometimes. Wifi without the password bull**** is nice too.
Back on topic: If I see someone there in an EVE T-shirt, I'll know him to be Mr. Li.

I was only there for three nights.
The restaurant was called Franck and was in a place called Ferguson Lane.
I did eat at Face the next night which was great as well as a couple of restaurants in Xintandi...
But anyway - now I wonder where the CCP offices are in Shanghai!
