I-L-L I-N-I tee
A call and response rallying cheer known to all students and alumni of the University of Illinois (the REAL one, in Chambana) and heard not only at sporting events, but also, as rumor has it, in random locations throughout the world such as Disney World, the Wisconsin Dells, or Rome. Someone will yell "I-L-L" and everyone in hearing yells back "I-N-I," thus successfully spelling the team name, Illini (or fighting Illini, so named for military veterans). Often repeated many times in succession. Sometimes the leader is a cheerleader or a drunk person, but this is not required. If the first part is yelled, the reply must be loud and automatic or you didn't really go to this school. Copied by the University of Missouri who believe their team name (Tigers) and/or state name (Missouri) is spelled "M-I-Z Z-O-U." Along with "Oskee Wow-Wow," this serves not only as a cheer, but also as a friendly greeting among Illini (often recognized by their Chief Illinwek gear) and a great conversation starter. Serves the purpose of a secret handshake in helping to identify potential allies.

Customer Reviews
I always get so many compliments when I wear this (my favorite) shirt. I have been able to give out my phone number to lots of nice old men and my parents think it's great that I have so many nice mentors grooming me into a nice young boy who is willing to "follow the rules ".

Great shirt. Great service. Shopify doesn’t track the shipment accurately though. However, when I reached out to Urban Dictionary customer service, they were able to help me.
Wore it to school.
Love this shirt so much
I love this t-shirt that says morbussy. It allows me to show off both my love for Morbius and the fact that I get no Morbussy.
This shirt feels great, perfect fit too.
Great looking t-shirt. Good quality. Printing looks good.
Cool I didn’t order anything I just have a lot of free time and not a lot of hobbies
Fun and soft.
Good stuff! Although, I do have a sneaking suspicion that this is cursed. You see, whenever i dawn this top-teir, soft, stylish shirt - I proceed to pass out within 46 seconds. The mere act of making contact with the material insues the process of this countdown starting. If I do not quit contact, i will lose conciousness the exact moment the countown hits 0. And when I regain clarity, I find myself in a bathtub - never mine, but a bathtub nevertheless. In the bathtub, there is always various colours of hairdye. I then have to go back home, shirt stained with dye. Very fashionable though! 10/10
Smooth transaction and nice product, shipping was quick!
