UMass Game Jerseys

Well, purchasing the game jersey was an adventure. When we arrived at the game no knew how to purchase the jerseys or had even heard about the sale.

Eventually we grabbed Mike Hodges who told us to go into the UMass Field House and ask UMass equipment manager Paul Bys. Paul hauls out a huge sack and says "Pick any you want. They're $50/each' He sold six right there.

According to the UMass Press Release, the remaining jerseys (maroon or road white) will be available on May 15th at Currey Hicks Cage.

Get one if you can. The jerseys are real football jerseys by Nike.

Mine is in excellent condition. There is a small rip on one shoulder. The "A10' logo patch is soiled. Any other imperfections are invisible from farther away than 12 inches.

Mine even fits! I've been wearing it around the house pretending I'm a QB and calling signals. Mrs. Blog sez that "Men are goofy".

Hey! Age is inevitable----maturity is optional.

Get one if you can. The jerseys are "collectible" because they have the soon to be history A10 Football patch.

But better than that---they are totally cool. You will be the envy of all the other kids UMass fans!
