Savers in Maplewood (next to the mall on beam) and the big thrift store in the Sunray mall is where I get my shirts.

Two questions. How "bright does the hawaiian shirt have to be and will there be a turn out this weekend even with the JR the next day?
Brightness is up to you.
This is the earliest we have ever opened. So open play will be light, we do have a number of players that can only play on Saturdays so I am guessing around 16-24 players for Sat. With a lot of newer players.
Most regulars will wait for the Jungle Rumble on Sunday.

Just in case anyone wants to know how this went down today. From my POV and other Hawaiian sporters a little unfair. All Hawaiian shirts were on the same team with many small kids and older men. Against a much more organized and experienced opposing team. Next time I would rather pay the 15 dollars.

Thanks to all the players that came out for Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole Day at Splat Tag Saturday, March 28.
I will make sure I have a Hawaiian Shirt for the next Hawaiian shirt Day for King Kamehameha I Day at Splat Tag Sunday, June 14.
And if I start doing as much damage as the last time I will pull myself out from playing to make the team balanced. police:)

June 14 is Hawaiian shirt Day for King Kamehameha I Day.
Darrin, can you tell us a little bit about the legend of King Kamehameha?
11 players for Hawaiian shirt Day for King Kamehameha I Day at Splat Tag.
Thanks to everyone that came out and played.
Kamehameha I (born February 1758, November 1737, or May 1, 1738; died May 8, 1819), also known as Kamehameha the Great, conquered the Hawaiian Islands (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawaiian_Islands) and formally established the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Hawaii) in 1810. By developing alliances with the major Pacific colonial powers, Kamehameha preserved Hawaiʻi's independence under his rule. Kamehameha's full Hawaiian name is Kalani Paiʻea Wohi o Kaleikini Kealiʻikui Kamehameha o ʻIolani i Kaiwikapu kaui Ka Liholiho Kūnuiākea.

This Sunday August 23 is Splat Tag last Hawaiian shirt day of the year.
This event is our way of celebrating Hawaii Statehood Day. (Real date is August 21) but we are having our Sunday, August 23.
__________________________________________________ ____________
Admission Day or Statehood Day is a legal holiday in the state of Hawai`i in the United States. It is celebrated annually on the third Friday in August to commemorate the anniversary of the 1959 admission of Hawai'i into the Union.
Statehood bills for Hawai'i were introduced into the U.S. Congress as early as 1919 by the non-voting delegates Hawai'i sent to the U.S. Congress. Additional bills were introduced in 1935, 1947 and 1950. In 1959, the U.S. Congress approved the statehood bill. This was followed by a referendum in which Hawai'i residents voted overwhelmingly in support of statehood (the ballot question was: "Shall Hawaii immediately be admitted into the Union as a state?"), and on August 21, 1959 (the third Friday in August), President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a proclamation making Hawai'i the 50th state.
