I'll Show You Mine If You Show Me Yours

[RockyMTblue2]

What? Superstition based gotta wear game day threads, etc.

I've got other UConn stuff, but this stuff I actually wore a lot before I realized I was abusing Dynastic Treasures. I'll switch of the sweat stained '99 cap with the sweat stained 2004 cap (and yes they have been in the dishwasher) and for ordinary in season games I don't wear them, though I do don more modern T Shirts. But the 2002 T you are looking at comes out for Conference Championships and the NCAAs. Yeah, that's black Rustoleum paint on the T .

So care to share your superstitious sports wear?

My 2XL standard hoodie . My main issue is that it is the same one I have had for 8+ years and I have a big hole on the right elbow. Still, every game day, I wear it
from beginning to end and both my coworkers and family (who are not UConn fanatics unfortunately) keep bothering me to get a new one.

Not WCBB related, but I finally got around to buying a Carolina Panther top last fall. When I bought this... the Panthers were 6-2 and in good shape to make the playoffs. I wore it every time the Panthers played........ they proceeded to lose 7 straight games and were eliminated from the playoffs

That's awesome. I wish I had that much mojo. (and thank you)

Actually, they would. I am just too stubborn and worried if I change.

Maybe it's time to ditch that Dukies gear as well. You ain't helpin' a bit. I know I've said this before, but outside of UConn I root for the Dukies the most so....

Hey Rocky- so, because I now live in Charleston SC, I don’t get to attend many games anymore, so my gear is in storage. I do attend the USC games of course, and the Final Four usually. I do possess an original 1991 Final Four T from New Orleans, and the 1995 T. I should frame them.

You absolutely should do that if you have the wall space. Better yet, send them to me for safe keeping in this dry, moth free environment. I won't charge you.

Yes. I am not a fanatic in that way. Laundry wash but drip dry since any potential machine drying may shrink it and I cant afford that.

Now you're getting personal. To paraphrase Quentin Crisp (who said this about his apartment), after 7 years I found my things don't really get much dirtier.

When I read the thread title, before looking at the OP, my initial reaction was" no thanks".

Actually I was gonna go later today to buy a new Blue Duke hat to wear to the ACC Women's Tourney.... you saying that I shouldnt?

Actually..... I have a UCONN cap.... bought it about 20 years ago.. no idea where it is. I would try to find it out in storage.... but I dont want a bunch of husky fans hunting me down in NC

With your sartorial luck maybe you think of buying ND, Louisville and NC State gear. Just sayin'.

ND Gear is hideous... and I cant do Red and Adidas.

I'll take the tip, ok Clif? You'd be right at home on St. Patty's day in Butte, MT. Pub crawling is an Olympic sport there and then.

I know what you're hoping for, I do. Kids act friendly but keep an eye on that dookie!

I could not possibly answer that question without embarrassment to me or you or both! Scylla, meet Charybdis!
