Question

I love the chicken/egg shirt that was worn by the cast at different times. I would like to get one. Any ideas?

Answer

I've looked around and can't find one.  Apparently, it was a running joke that appeared on every cast member - though they cut it out most of the time so you only see it on Roseanne.

I even asked the owner of the Rosanne site and he didn't know, so I'd just say to look on Ebay or something....
