 About Weekend To End Women‘s Cancers

The Shoppers Drug Mart ^® Weekend to End Women’s Cancers is a two-day 60km walk, or a one-day 30km walk, bringing together thousands of women and men in support of the fight against women’s cancers. As research suggests a linkage between breast cancer and other cancers such as ovarian, The Weekend realized the need to expand and broaden the focus of the event to impact all women’s cancers.

We saw these images in the Monster Gallery and had to comment – I mean, who hasn’t seen Ferris Bueller’s Day off?!! Teacher calling out his name, “Bueller…Bueller…Bueller” was the inspiration for one of the designs, we had to ask the designer about the other two which are more obscure.

The “Save Ferris” town water tower is a nice touch, but “Abe Froman Meats” takes the cake! You have to be a die hard Bueller fan to remember who Abe Froman is (think back to the fancy restaurant scene!). Ahhh, good old Abe Froman, King of the Sausage Meats of Chicago! PS. Check out their Gallery (very cool header) for more movie related t-shirt designs: http://www.tshirtmonster.ca/Designer/moviequotes/
