Stuff happens. You’re in a rush. You’re not thinking. You get ahead of yourself… and boom. You’ve messed up.

Well in today’s world anything from a misspelled word to a bungled map on a t-shirt will be caught, tweeted and mocked. For proof, click the headline above and take a closer gander at the Texas A&M t-shirt CNBC’s Darren Rovell tracked down and linked to today.

A company called Aggieland Outfitters has already apologized for selling the shirt which says:

“WE MAY BE NEW TO THE CONFERENCE BUT WE AREN’T NEW TO THE GAME”

… along with an SEC logo above the outline of 10 states.

Unfortunately, new SEC states Missouri and Texas — that’s right, the home of the Aggies — aren’t included in the design while North Carolina is.

D’oh!

The store is only licensed to sell Aggie gear. They are not affiliated in any way with Texas A&M

The Aggies have a perfect response for this situation. They can call it an Aggie Joke. Some of the best Aggie jokes I've heard were told to me by Aggies.

@Hogitall O man... I have missed Aggie jokes. I used to have a book of them as a kid! Glad to have them back around.

FWIW, Texas is on the back with some other slogan
