Yeah, I'm pretty sure Banksy is fairly well-known, so if you end up winning with that design, I would probably let Empire know that you stole it from a sick graffiti artist.  But seeing as it's Empire, I wouldn't be surprised if they were okay with it.

I think his truck is just getting bigger. That truck is almost the size of my moms truck, but I'm sure it's not an HD and it obviously has a 6-foot bed. So I'm seeing 11mpg...tops. Wait, wait, wait...how does he get in?

He doesn't even have running boards or a step. HAHA! I can see it now... him crawling into the truck like a little kid.

DISCLAIMER: The “Let’s do the whitest thing imaginable" t-shirt is slightly plagiarized

                      painted this on canvas

but yeh, you can say i stole it but
a) not copyrighted
and
b) graffiti/stencling (banksy is a stencilist) is about raging agaisnt authority correct? well me using his work is kinda the same, an anarchistic, "stealing" type of forte', therefore it should be fine lol

Anyone who is into graffiti (not trying to include myself in this, because I've never really gotten into it) must know Banksy, he's like a legend to the graffiti world.  And I heard of him because of his outspoken political views, which got me to look at his work.  Yes, it isn't technically stealing, but I think the whole point of the contest is to make a sick design on your own, rather than borrowing someone else's (although, for the record, I would probably buy your shirt if it won.)

No state income tax in Florida.  Keeping a place there which allows you to claim it as your home state saves you TONS of money.  Not sure if that is why it has Florida plates but that would be my guess.  That is the same reason why Jon Olsson calls Monaco home.  Many professional athletes try to minimize their tax liability.
