A Guy Wearing A "World's Best Farter" Shirt To Court For A Felony Charge Is So Ridiculous You Almost Have To Respect It

NY Post- A no-nonsense Texas judge scolded a man who brazenly wore a t-shirt that said “World’s Best Farter” to his felony court appearance.

Jefferson County Judge Raquel West was less than pleased with defendant Sammy Morris’ fashion choice when he appeared in her courtroom last week, footage posted to the 252nd District Court’s YouTube page shows.

“What made you think that was a good shirt to wear to court this morning?” West asked.

Morris mumbled that he picked the shirt — which said “World’s Best Farter,” then had “I mean father” scribbled underneath — because it was the only one he could find to wear.

“That was the only shirt you had to wear in your closet?” she questioned.


Morris tried arguing that the playful shirt said “father,” but the Texas judge wasn’t buying the excuse for his outfit choice.

“No, it says … I can read it. I see what it says at the bottom,” West said. 

West then reprimanded the man for not dressing appropriately for an appearance in her courtroom.

It’s unclear for what felony charge Morris was appearing in court.

World's Best Farter shows up around the 7 minute mark

So perfect to get this story out of court. It seems like the courts are just as wild a scene as you can get. Characters upon characters, a smorgasbord of crimes, an array of wild stories, and a bunch of moments that will keep you on your toes. Look no further than Marty's own brother who had a viral moment (and a terrific line of "We're not doing that!") of his own in court recently. 

I didn't even know they video'd these proceedings until that really nice judge went viral that I'm sure everyone has seen. 

But I guess they are, and the people who watch these will experience no shortage of entertainment. That held true today as this guy showed up to court in a "World's Best Farter" Tshirt. Now I'm sure a bunch of people would take offense to that for a variety of reasons, the first of which is that literally everyone believes they are the world's best farter or they know the world's best farter. Have a bunch of dudes sit around having a few and someone will let one rip that they proclaim the best ever, or technically the worst smelling one ever. Or someone you never even met lives in infamy from the stories, like someone telling legends how their college roommate used to clear out the entire room.  But this judge took offense to it because it's not an appropriate shirt in court. 

I mean she's right, but you almost have to look the other way that he tried to write I mean best father (or that's actually how the shirt was sold I can't tell). It's such a ridiculous way to show up to defend yourself for a felony you almost have to just laugh. A "Manny being Manny" type scenario. His defense of it was the only shirt he could find is where I blame him. You GOTTA be able to find another shirt my man cmon. We all own a ton of tshirts we won't throw out, or just look around the average males house, there's 10 on the floor. The "next man up pile" as Will Compton put it once. 

I do have a personal story about wearing an inappropriate shirt in a social setting that still makes me laugh. We went to Hershey Park one year for Easter. I think at some point during the weekend since the park wasn't fully open with all the rides etc, we went to the shops in the area. We found ourselves in some type of Sam Goody CD and Dvd store. Hanging over the cash registers were three versions of MTV Jackass shirts. My Dad told us go look in the back or something to distract us and bought the shirts for us to open the next day. Fast forward like 6 months or so and my Mom is waiting on a repair man of some sort to come to the house. The bell rings she was in the shower or doing laundry and needed to change shirts. She grabbed whatever was laying on the pile and walked out to meet him. Only to realize she was wearing a Jackass shirt. She was horrified. So I guess a little part of me sympathizes with this guy grabbing whatever shirt he could find, but he still should have looked a little harder.
