That Rick Ross sure is a nice guy. Last night, Officer Ricky gave us media folks these shirts as a parting gift from his listening session. Promo T’s are the best. Not only are they free, but they’re also great for wifey to rock around the house. See, even Stewie approves. Click the jump to see the back.
