(CNN)A T-shirt inspired by a young Tennessee Volunteer fan, who was bullied for his homemade design, is selling wildly after news of the boy's creativity and team spirit went viral.

The campus bookstore has gotten more than 16,000 pre-orders for the "College Colors" shirt since it started selling them last week, University of Tennessee Director of Media Relations Tyra E. Haag said in a statement. Demand was so high that the store's website crashed over the weekend.
The university is not profiting from the $14.99 shirts, Haag said. It costs $7.50 per shirt to print and the rest of the money will be donated to the charity Stomp Out Bullying, Haag said.

They only have about a million in annual donations and at 16,000 shirts sold that amounts to $240,000.

That's fantastic. Hopefully, the kid feels like a star now. The girls may or may not feel like dirtbags, but the important thing to me is that the kid feels good and doesn't care what the little twats think/say.
