Deadspin
We've known the identity of the Snorg T-shirt girl for quite awhile now, of course; Alice Fraasa, 19, attends Auburn, where she majors in communication. Loves the Atlanta Braves, Harry Potter, and is an atheist. But what I didn't know is how much money she rakes in. The Snorgtees ads that feature her are seen by millions every month. So she's paid pretty well, right?
The brothers who launched the company 3 1/2 years ago credit much of its success to Fraasa, who's paid in free T-shirts. Millions of people each month see ads featuring Alice, and about 500,000 are interested enough to click, taking them to Snorgtees.com, said Snorg Tees co-founder Matt Flynn.
Yeah, the cheapskates pay her in T-shirts. This kid needs an agent, and pronto.
Meanwhile, over on her MySpace page, we learn that one of her favorite books is The Odyssey. Apparently she didn't care for The Iliad.
Of course one of the best parts of the Snorg Girl Experience is visiting said MySpace page and reading some of the comments, which can be quite unintentionally comical:
• I would like to marry the "Big Deal" model. Hook it up — open bar, karaoke, live CCR cover band. — Plzkthxbye
• Love the shirt, keep up the good work. — Jay
• Any shirt I see you wear I buy. — Travi$
• You get like a million of these messages a day... but... I think you're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my whole entire life. :( — Irvin
• Yo, shout me a holla when u need a ram upgrade. — Ram Guy

Hellooooo ram guy! I need a ram upgrade! Here I am, shouting you a holla!
GIVE ME A FUCKING CHEESEBURGER NOW.

Unintentionally comical AND intentionally creepy.
Boy. I'm racking my brain trying to determine which of these guys makes me the most uneasy. It's tough.
How does the Guanabee guy get paid?
Yo, shout me a holla when you need a ram upgrade.
Bill used the same line to pick up Melinda.
Rick, what the fuck?
It's the end of the world as we know it - REM guy
Funny that she'd be a Braves fan. They actually pay Bobby Cox in Snorg Tees as well.
To be fair, at Auburn a t-shirt is like formal wear.
There's a new Snorg girl who doesn't wear any pants. Please get Jezebel on the case to find out who she is, and how I can meet her.
Surprised she doesn't sell ad space on her teeth.
You had me at "Open Bar", Plzkthxbye
@Chicago Jones: Free speedos.
War Eagle Alice. Keep em coming
I'd still like to know about her fantasy team.
@Camp Tiger Claw: Yeah, they'd better stop doing those ads pretty soon...
Snorgtees Girl Likes The Braves, Gets Paid Zilch.
I never thought the Snorgtees girl and my dad would have two things in common, but there ya go.
I really love your smile. - Barbaro's Ghost
@preciousroy: I heeearrrddd that!
Alice is an Atheist? Sign me up, I'll give her a shot.
@Chicago Jones: Speedos?
"I kind of want to grow dreadlocks but not sure that i could pull them off."
bad idea. and a 19 year old obsessed with Harry Potter semms a little odd
"Why is this post blank?"

The South's sole atheist has been identified.
More importantly, what's her position on fuck lions?
@Chicago Jones:
They pick him up in the back of a pickup truck every morning.
Reason 13,209 not to have MySpace. Check out the first comment.
Yes.
@shea_guevara: including my mom and my cousin.
Signed-Kige.
Also: I think her agent has gotten her contract negotiated to include funny Lindsay Lohan pics plus the T-shirts.
Yo, shout me a holla when you need a ram upgrade.
Is that some sort of new lingo the kids are using to score chicks nowadays? Cause if so I was like 10 years ahead of the curve
Rob, the Snorg Tees girl is not into us -- this we know. But clearly she's saving herself for Irvin.
@Rob Iracane: Rob kills the meme, Rick digs it back up and uses it as a prop.
@ghostsoftheSCupcountry: Damn.
Thanks, but I prefer masterbating to Gawker Artists.
Now, suss--, you know Rob is her Beau Ideal.
Wow... two comments on the day and I've pissed off two entire fan-bases.
I'm out.
/Costanza
She should just get Oakland to pay her salary.
@Brazil Thrill: Hey, it's my first time being King Quik-Draw on a post. Let me enjoy it.
@Rob Iracane: Stay tuned for tomorrow's post: You Know Who Really Looks Like Martin Lawrence?
Critcizing her choice in Greek Classics? Real smooth, Will. I bet the emo hair cut and black tee shirts work swimingly for you.
@Tracy Ham and Eggs: I think that may be Stu Scott.
That's like Jackie paying Rodney Dangerfield in "jokes".
Interesting, she's a college kid who wants to get paid, and is broke. Were she an avowed amateur, she'd have a Hummer on dubs, a condo and 6" thick bankroll.
She better believe that she is one naive bitch for accepting getting paid in t-shirts.

OK, I'm beginning to re-think my "yes" after reading the MySpace page.
Pros: bakes cookies, likes to color, has a brother named "Rad" who I assume could teach me to skateboard.
Cons: likes the Braves and DMB, writes like a retard.
If she's at Auburn, how can she both love lamp AND hate Negro penis?
We know that last one's you, Bulger.
Any T-shirt hawker worth her metal knows the big bucks start rolling in when she TAKES off her top.
I think the sad face at the end of Irvin's post is what's gonna get him in the sack with her.

@Chicago Jones: They shave his back once a month.
Matt Flynn runs Snorg Tees? Man that guy is on a hell of a roll.
