In honor of Leap Year, our office is hosting an Ugly Sweater Party tomorrow. In effort to inspire my coworkers to participate, I hunted down some pictures of some truly horrendous sweaters. They’re entertaining enough that I though I’d post a collection of my favorites here for everyone’s viewing enjoyment. (Though Ugly Christmas Sweaters are apparently the most popular sort, I don’t have many here since, well… Leap Day is in February.) Photos all link back to the websites where I found these, so credit can be duly noted.

So there you have them. The rock stars of the Ugly Sweater World. I hope you’re inspired. See you tomorrow!
Can’t sleep clowns will eat me…

Eew! It’s awful! And I know people who would wear it without thinking so…
The first one just *hurts* (apparently)
I think I may know the people in the second one
Is that a young Ray Liotta in pic #3?
and I hope the last one wasn’t an item at some charity auction….
No, no Ray Liotta. But the guy in the first picture is actually Wil Wheaton. You should take a look at his blog (the picture links to it). It’s pretty funny. It has been speculated that the clown sweater is the reason his career tanked… :p
[...] Even more exciting, I just realized that the guy whose wearing the Creepy Clown Sweater in my first post about ugly sweaters is Wil Wheaton, of Star Trek TNG fame. He wrote a pretty funny blog about how people assume that [...]
Where can I get a sweater like Wil’s?
I think you may be out of luck. It may be One Of A Kind. Oh please oh please, let’s hope so…
Oh my God that is hysterical! Stumbled on your site by accident and was mesmerised by the sweaters! I might suggest it for work – sadly it’ll have to wait – we are coming into Summer here in Australia.
Sooo funny!
It’s definitely worth it. There is nothing funnier than seeing your boss wearing the puppy dog sweater his grandma knit for him when he was 15. Love it.
Hey, great post…. (I’m the guy wearing the sweater with the pink elephant)
My best recommendation for finding an ugly sweater is to go to Goodwill store and snag one. The elephant sweater was only $2….
hee! Thanks for stopping by, Taylor. Next time we have a party, that’s definitely what I’ll be doing!
