If you wear another clubs shirt, no big deal, except if you're going to a Queen City function.

I know one thing it's tacky to wear a phone piece in your ear or even to have your phone turned on to ring. If a call is expected that is so important at least turn the ringer to vibrate and leave the room to talk.
You are allowed to wear a Lamborghini or Ferarri jacker if you really own one of the cars.

It's better than wearing no shirt. Unless you're one of the ladies, then even that's acceptable!

I don't see why it should matter at all, what kind of shirt you wear to a club meeting.

.............only if you don't own a CORVETTE!
Was the other club created by a disagreement within your club? Probably shouldn't be going there, but that's the ONLY reason I'd see a problem with it.

I think it's tacky to wear a shirt that says Corvette while driving a Corvette...

I didn't get the memo either...truth is, from what I have seen with the clubs down here, if you wore another clubs shirt you would be in for a "talking to"...it would be considered very tacky and innapropriate...

Just curious, why Cobra4B on a Corvette forum?
Seems to fit the thread's theme.

I wouldn't really think it should matter.
If it was my club that I had put together and there was known "friction" between us and another club (which is
) then maybe it would matter.
Bottom line...I'd rather have a member show up than not show up...no matter what the shirt said.
Having said this I voted...Who cares?

Because I've been Cobra4B since the late 90's when I had my Mustang Cobra. I joined this forum 6 years ago under the same name... no reason to change.

Anyone who would object to the shirt is insecure.
