The WSOP Fashion Report: Day 1C

Two men in togas dominated the fashion news on the Main Event's third Day 1. Matt Larsh arrived to play today dressed like an extra from the "Fall of Atlantis" Show at Caesar's Palace. His white toga bore a Bodog logo, though it didn't quite have the panache (or the sequins) of the one donned by Evelyn Ng "fanboy" Garry Gates.

In a true fashion horror show that left this reporter nauseated, a player on Table 24 arrived dressed in -- I kid you not -- a blue and green paisley print shirt, orange and tan checkered madras pants, a brown leather vest, hot pink socks, green suede loafers, and a straw fedora.

"It's like Happy Hour at the thrift store," quipped a fellow PokerNews staffer.

My worst shirt of the day award, however goes to the gentleman who thought that his Purdue Boilermakers-themed Hawaiian shirt was a good idea. Adorned with images of football players, stadiums, and flowers, this shirt should be lit on fire. I will gladly roast a hot dog over the remains.
