George Karl was wearing a personalized retro basketball jersey last night and Patrick Rhuby says this has to stop. I've never been a jersey person. I have a Jay Bouwmeester/Florida Panthers jersey that I wore for Halloween two years ago and I never seem to find another occasion to wear it (I wasn't about to stuff the $180 jersey into my suitcase). I have a Quebec Nordiques jersey, too (no name on it). The one exception I make is my Frank Viola Minnesota Twins jersey. I will wear that to games and I know that makes me a bit of a rube. Shelly and I also did splurge for a bunch of Panthers gear while at the game on our honeymoon and wore it at the game, but that was a one-time special circumstance. The most I can typically stomach is a baseball cap for the home team and perhaps a windbreaker. I always love the 350 lbs. guy at the Minnesota State Fair with the Spud Webb jersey on, but other than that, I generally agree that the jersey thing is a bit much. It pales in comparison to the guy with no shirt and his face painted green and black at the Eagles game, though.
