TFD: The "Free Sean Payton" shirt will be a hot seller in exactly one state

As brought to our attention by a colleague with a certain rooting interest in the Saints -- in spite, yes, of their cheating ways -- you can already purchase a "Free Sean Payton" T-shirt.

You can find them over at Dirty Coast (picture from there as well) if you have $25 burning a hole in your pocket for the coach whose team knocked the Vikings -- literally? -- out of the playoffs a couple years ago.

Per the Times-Picayune, there are more shirts sympathetic to the plight of Payton and the Saints -- and they are selling well at least on one state:

It's become something of a New Orleans tradition to mark a significant moment in time with a shirt that sums up the city's feelings. So it was no surprise when Dirty Coast came out with its "Free Sean Payton" shirt within hours of the NFL's punishment announcement.

Fleurty Girl also came out with its own, one-word-less version. It reads simply: "Free Payton."

The reaction has been pure Who Dat mania. "I've never seen a shirt move like this," said Fleurty Girl owner Lauren Thom. "We've sold 500 of them in less than three hours. It's insane."
