You know what doesn’t get the IZOD Girl down?! A panicked, impromtu transfer of executive power under historically dire & tense conditions. Stay cool in IZOD PerformX®!!

Is it me or does Jack Valenti look all tweaked out? (Far left) Hey Jack, I know it’s only 1963 and angel dust is still in it’s infancy, but you might want to throttle back on that shit. Blink Jack! Blink!

As an American, I am comforted to know we can rely on the mulit-cultural, big-smiled IZOD Girl to always be there to reflect our nation’s hopes and dreams in her mirrored sunglasses.
By Jason McVeigh, April 20, 2010 @ 10:12 am
Genius Roy, just f*cking genius.
By Hamilton Fish, April 20, 2010 @ 10:13 am
Would you rather…Jackie O or the Izod Girl? Don’t forget about the prestige factor, people.
By BP, April 20, 2010 @ 10:26 am
Lyndon could look happier. After all, if IZOD girl is there, he’s clearly won something.
By Earnastine, April 20, 2010 @ 10:39 am
What about the Obama Nation and Izod girl?
Janet Napolitano could use a lift-
By Earnastine, April 20, 2010 @ 10:40 am
Mike and Ike could have used the Izod girl in Black and White of course. Jus sayin-
By No reason she can’t be assisting Armstrong down the ladder on the moon, April 20, 2010 @ 11:14 am

PerformaX was worn on the moon? Shoosh, I’m headed for Macy’s right now. If it’s good enough for Buzz Aldrin and Co…
By Heit Harrelson, April 20, 2010 @ 11:50 am
I think this list has merit:
1. Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky embrace
2. OJ Simpson tries on the glove
3. Nelson Mandela upon his release from prison (1991)
4. On the sofa with the Simpsons
5. Smashing the Berlin Wall (1989)
Honorable Mention:
• Michael Jackson and Bubbles the orangatun (1988)
• ET and the bicycle in front of the moon (1982)
• Charles Manson Life Magazine cover (1969)
• Jimi Hendrix burning his guitar (1967)
• Mohammad Ali standing over Sonny Liston (1965)
• Chariot Race – Ben Hur (1959)
By DZ, April 20, 2010 @ 11:55 am
Ali over Liston FTW!
By Dex, April 20, 2010 @ 1:53 pm
Roy,
Brilliant!
I haven’t been online for a few hours and was about to do a piece, using some YouTube action from the weekend as evidence, on how much the IZOD Girl kicks Miss Sprint Cup’s arse in victory lane lurking.
I shall not bother now you git!
Bravo.
Dex

Brilliant, just brilliant. As someone who has written at least a dozen papers on the assassination and its aftermath in high school and college, how have I never noticed this before?
Off topic, Oswald acted alone. No conspiracy. I will now batten down the hatches as I get fervently counterattacked.
@ Hamilton- IZOD girl. If JFK slept around as much as was reported, Jackie could have been an unwilling carrier of something that would ruin your day.
By Jason McVeigh, April 20, 2010 @ 4:52 pm
Riss…. Wow!! Oswald acted alone and Jackie had STDs! Those are big statements.
By Jason McVeigh, April 20, 2010 @ 4:54 pm
I bet no one that wears IZOD clothing has STDs.
By Coz, April 20, 2010 @ 5:42 pm
Although the reflection in the IZOD girl’s shades doesn’t look much like the view towards the rear of the Boeing 707, call sign “Air Force One”, circa 1963, in Hobbson we trust. Or at least that what it says on my nickles. But then again, the Buffaloes crap in my pocket on my nickles too.
By Bickelmom, April 20, 2010 @ 7:29 pm
I like the twists and turns in Pagoda conversation. IZOD girl…Oswald is the lone shooter. Roy, you lead us in strange circles, my friend. Strange circles.
And Riss, everything I’ve learned about history I got from Kevin Costner. So, there had to be more than one shooter. And soldiers who tried unsuccessfully to kill themselves during the Civil War got to dance with wolves.
By BC, April 20, 2010 @ 7:58 pm
YES YES. This is excellent. 100 marketing departments engaging in 1000 brainstorming sessions each could not come up with a better meme to endear the IZOD IndyCar series to the fickle quirk-loving masses of the internet.
And on a personal preference level, if she’s really gotta be there…she might as well be everywhere! All or none, baby.
By lazlo, April 20, 2010 @ 8:28 pm
Given the time span of her work, should we venture into suggesting that ageless beauty has been defined?
By BP, April 20, 2010 @ 9:07 pm
Lazlo, given IZOD Girl’s timespan of work, it’s safe to say that IZOD has a budget far bigger than any of us could imagine.
If you think Oswald/Kennedy is a conspiracy, Roy is bringing out evidence that IZOD has been sitting on a time machine and utilizing it to send their model(s) throughout the ages. That’s Zapruderian.
It’s only a matter of time before we realize IZOD Girl was at the Crucifixion and the 1911 Indianapolis 500, along with Mr. Harrelson’s above list.
By Heit Harrelson, April 20, 2010 @ 9:30 pm
Roy – this post is just too good to die. Someone in this cult has to have Photoshop skills. She MUST appear elsewhere. Larry Phelps says Jack V is half-baked, yet neither of us can operate Photoshop For Dummies. I beg thee, Pagodians…someone help me sleep tonight!
By Heit Harrelson, April 20, 2010 @ 9:35 pm
Wait! That Mike Kelly cat has a staff of granola-creative people in cages in New York. One phone call and this idea has more content than a Bass Shoe catalog. Blow in the conch shell IZOD execs! She must appear elsewhere.
By Roy Hobbson, April 20, 2010 @ 10:09 pm
Churchill … FDR … Stalin … IZOD Girl. Welcome to the Yalta Conference, bitches — where war-torn nations desparately turn for help. You’re welcome, world.
By Jason McVeigh, April 20, 2010 @ 10:19 pm
Somewhere a sprint girl is weeping and wondering why a bunch of weirdos at a racing blog never got this obsessed with her.
By Earnastine, April 20, 2010 @ 10:22 pm
Izod girl needs a raise now.
By P Daddy, April 20, 2010 @ 11:00 pm
You’re welcome!!! I love it.
By Roy Hobbson, April 20, 2010 @ 11:04 pm
Just because you’re listening to a National Hero bid his final tearful farewell as he dies an awful death from some f–ked up neurological disease that will eventually be named after him doesn’t mean you can’t look FABULOUS. Chin up, Lou. Chin up AMERICA!
By Oilpressure, April 20, 2010 @ 11:42 pm
It’s been said before, by me and by others…
Roy Hobbson is pure genius!
By cappy, April 21, 2010 @ 8:01 am
IZOD girl is just a whole lotta win. (America thanks you for your service, ma’am.)
By Bickelmom, April 21, 2010 @ 8:36 am
Today (today…today) IZOD (IZOD…IZOD) girl is the luckiest (luckiest…luckiest) girl on the face of the earth.
By Neon18, April 21, 2010 @ 8:54 am
Beatiful Izod girl quietly reminds us in the backround- who is Boss.
By Christopher Leone, April 21, 2010 @ 11:24 am
Good lord. I want to acknowledge this but I can’t even find the words. I am simply in awe.
I think it’s because the sunglasses are f–king HUGE.
By Jason McVeigh, April 21, 2010 @ 11:36 am
Just a thought but can someone photoshop the statue of liberty with IZOD girl, what a welcoming sight she would have been for all incoming immagrants.
By DZ, April 21, 2010 @ 2:05 pm
Notorious B.I.G. (Beautiful Izod Girl) is back! Fo’ rizzle.
PS (sorry about the fo’ rizzle bit)
By Neon18, April 21, 2010 @ 8:19 pm
B.I.G. very right on.
Don’t forget the Sean Puff-daddy Combs song.

Oh, that’s the best so far! Very tasteful, IZOD girl. Way to give the man his space. While carefully maintaining the foremost background position, of course.
VIDEO EDITING – anyone out there with such skills? That’s a sure ticket to the next level..
By Coz, April 23, 2010 @ 10:57 am
The Izod girl at Yalta is great, Roy! And the “Is that a 10 gallon baseball cap Lou, are are you just happy to see me”? (a la Lilly Von Schtup in Blazing Saddles) is priceless. How ’bout the Izod girl with Nixon and Elvis (still the White House’s most single requested photo, by the way.)
By Hamilton Fish, April 23, 2010 @ 4:05 pm
A few more beers and few more beers and few more beers and a shot. A few more shots and few more beers. A few more beers and a shot. Happy weekend. Come here single malt. Yes. You are my friend.
By DZ, April 30, 2010 @ 12:10 pm
OK, here’s my final Notorious IZOD girl pic:

and here I was thinking that it was only me and my friends who saw the lighter side of IZOD girl lol.
How long before she gets a record deal or action figure?
