As soon as Bryce Harper uttered his now-infamous five-word catchphrase, "That's a clown question, bro," we at SportsOlogy knew it would turn into an unstoppable force. So did everyone else. After uttering the Admonishment Heard 'Round the World, scores of people rushed to monetize Harper's quote. There were t-shirts. There was a beer, and Bryce asked that proceeds from the beer's sale go to the daughter of a Colorado police officer who was killed. After questioning his maturity, many were forced to eat their words when he campaigned for Chipper Jones to make the All-Star team. We asked to see his birth certificate.

But what we, as Americans, REALLY want is a way to purchase an officially licensed piece of Bryce Harper's legend. And soon we can. Under Armour will mass-produce shirts featuring the 19-year-old's famous phrase, one employed by everyone from us here at SportsOlogy to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
We're not sure when the shirts will be available, but AS SOON AS THAT INFORMATION IS PUBLIC, we'll let you know. If we're not in line at our local sporting goods retailer already.
UPDATE: The shirts will go on sale Tuesday, July 10, for $24.99, and apparently they'll feature the modified, "Don't Be A Clown Bro" wording instead of the original, "That's a Clown Question, Bro." Too bad. Here's what they look like (h/t Dan Steinberg):
