Spoiler Alert: Uniform update

No suit should be work tailgating if you are being serious about it. I used to tailgate back in the early 2000's with a full leisure suit! Bright red, 100% polyester. Used to be my grandfather's suit. He was a Wheel Horse dealer (if any of you even know who that is) back in the 70's and used it at trade shows. Was the best conversation starter, plus I don't know how many free beers that thing got me. :smile: Still have it, and I break it out every once and a while. I think the last game I wore it too was for the CU tornado game.

Well, never go to an Ivy League Football game. Suits and mink stoles are seen at tailgates and in the stadium. I about gagged every time I saw it. Wanted to grab a beer and act like I tripped right in front of them. Of course, I was risking that they would spill their wine on me. GO FIGURE.
 
This thread must live on....A guy actually said, and I quote, "I love wearing oxfords to the games"

He lays his little outfit out the night before and falls asleep dreaming about how spiffy his sperrys and oxford shirt are going to look the next day.

I will pay the sum of $100 for you to tell me wear you are tailgating so I can set up near you and mock you and your g/f.

I may be there for spring game, can you set it up for then? I'd sweeten the pot alittle if I was invited/allowed to watch!!:v_SPIN:
 
So he didn't like the uniform with more yellow. Got it. So adding more yellow would not be wise, got it. Yes, I fully agree with that.

I also agree with him in that simple is better. It always has been.

The problem for ISU is you have to incorporate three colors in an away jersey if you are going to wear white. He doesn't seem to understand this compared to the schools that have one other color and white.

I do agree that for away games ISU should stick with the all white top and white pants. The less yellow the better. The yellow works on the home jersey because there is no white. ( two color concept again)

I hate the 1% and the 99%. I guess I don't know who the hell I am! LOL

Oh my Gosh, does that mean I like Trump or Bernie??? I'm moving to Alaska!
 
I think the "new uniform" was the alteration to the shoulder stripes and bringing red pants back. Whoo. :rolleyes:
Yeah, whoo, whoot! Especially the red pants (w/ red jerseys), whoo, whoot, fail.

Actually the all red doesn't look too bad, once in awhile. The all yellow on the other hand, that's another story. I didn't dig it. For some reason it looks great/fine for basketball, not so much for football.

Not going to lie, I think the execution on this is worse than the Jack Trice throwbacks...

I maybe am missing the joke, but you won't see those outside of the practice facility.
 
Cool that Coach Manning is wearing a shirt with a throwback logo on it though.
