Nobody:

Me: Remember when Pat's shirt said "I'd rather hunt with Dick Cheney than ride with Ted Kennedy"?

Our Skyy 2, let Pat wear normal shirts. He can keep the Baseball Mom and Tim Horton's, but Minoru already hurt me with his New England Patriots shirt, so let's keep the personal attacks to the minimum.

Please & Thanks.

#bad buddy x our skyy 2 #throw that shirt away! #but bring back the baseball mom #don't hurt me wardrobe department

Hello! I'm new to Bad Bunny and now having fun catching up. It has been quite the delight to dive into to your magical posts, so thank you for sharing them with the world! I must ask, has there been any talk about the dick cheney muscle shirt Pat wears in Ep 1 part 3? For the life of my I canNOT understand where this one is coming from, except for a possible foreshadow of Pat getting shot? It's starting to feel like the biggest mystery of the show, so curious if you or others have/had thoughts

Anon! Welcome to the fandom and thank you for your compliments 😊

First, I'm going to mention the typo because if it was on purpose then yeah, why not, carry on but if it was accidental then who hasn't been there done that, right?

Anyway, thank you for giving me yet another opportunity to wax lyrical about Pat's shirts because they 👏🏼 are 👏🏼 magnificent 👏🏼.

So, the Dick Cheney shirt...

At first, like many others, I had no idea why they had used this shirt in the show - it seemed very random and out of place - but then I learnt the nuance of it (see below) and went a bit feral in my original post about it. As you said, the shirt can be interpreted as a foreshadowing of Pat getting shot...but also as a nod to the conversation Pat and Pran later have on the beach in ep 6 where Pat asks Pran if he were drowning would Pran help him...so when looked at it like this...it's a genius inclusion.

(For those who don't know, the shirt says: “I’d rather hunt with Dick Cheney than ride with Ted Kennedy” - Dick Cheney accidentally shot a lawyer during a quail hunt in 2006 whereas Ted Kennedy crashed a car into a river in 1969 and the woman in the car with him died.)

Is it the weirdest choice on the whole show? Perhaps...if we're looking at 'weird' being things seemingly unrelated to the show but has roots in some other time or culture. Three others immediately spring to mind are the 'Baseball Mom' shirt, the 'California' shirt and the 'Proud to be a Noles Hater' because they have very specific connotations to something else in a whole-ass different country and at first glance don't have anything to do with the story or characters...until you go looking. (click the links)

If forced to choose, I'd say the 'weirdest' choice is probably either the Dick Cheney or the Noles Hater shirt...but also they're so genius in their inclusion it's hard to say that they are actually 'weird' choices, if you know what I mean.

Anyway, I'd love to know from the production team what came first - the shirts or the plot points - because I know the director, Aof, found a lot of clothes in charity shops...which makes me think that a lot of these shirts must have been serendipitously found. Which makes them even more mind-blowingly amazing. Like...imagine knowing the plot will include Pat getting shot and Pa nearly drowning therefore Pat asking Pran whether he would help him if he were drowning...and then Aof goes into a charity shop and sees that Dick Cheney shirt and either understands or discovers the references and knows it fits perfectly to the plot and to Pat's character trait of wearing such loud 'weird' shirts. (Or, I guess, the other way around, finding the shirt and then knowing they could manipulate the plot to make it make sense.) I mean... 🤯

For more shirts I went feral over see My top ten of Pat's shirts from Bad Buddy (revised edition to include some I hadn't analysed before I made the original list).

#*sigh* I could go on all day about Pat's shirts #and the costumes of bad buddy #but I really should do other things 😂 #thank you for the ask! #I'm glad you liked the show #and all my posts about it! #bad buddy #bad buddy series #bad buddy the series #pat's shirts make me feral #pat's shirts are amazing

The rooftop scene from Bad Buddy is just so amazing and emotional,but...Pat's "baseball mom" shirt just makes me giggle

Look, we don't question their shirts. Okay? If we start questioning their shirts than I'm going back to episode one because there was the most wtf shirt of ALL time in that episode.

Seriously. "Baseball Mom" is nothing compared to "I'd rather Hunt with Dick Cheney than Ride with Ted Kennedy."

Nothing will ever compare to that shirt, honestly.
