Sophomore ran out of clothes in London over the summer, bought Soviet sickle as experiment
Wildcat: So I see you wearing the Communist sickle.
Gebert: It's Soviet. Soviet and Communism are very different.
Wildcat: Alright. So why are you sportin' it?
Gebert: I was in London over the summer and I was there for a few days and I ran out of clothes so my friend bought me some shirts at Piccadilly Circus.
Wildcat: Okay.
Gebert: And he thought it would be really funny to see an American wearing one of these. And I'm kind of wearing it as a social experiment to see how people react to it.
Wildcat: What kind of reactions have you been getting?
Gebert: Old people are giving me dirty looks and, like, the free enterprise kids were waving at me. It's pretty funny.
Wildcat: That's cool. I'm reacting right now. I think it's a nice shirt.
Gebert: It was only five pounds, so · sure.
