NYC tech-and-media conference Syndicate is turning into SXSW Interactive for big kids. The latest gossip: A cabal of attendees whipped up tees commemorating the union of PR bloggers Jeremy Pepper and Steve Rubel.

Just thought you might like an advance sneak peek at the t-shirts that were distributed at a blogger happy hour last night (StormHoek was served, natch) to be worn today at The Syndicate Conference. Which I guess makes this impending event a Blogmob.

For the remedial class, Pepper and Rubel are more likely to end up together in a boxing ring than on a T-shirt. Extra-credit assignment: make a Venn diagram of the name "Rubel" and the word "wrong" appearing on Jeremy's blog.
