Default Wrangler jerseys galore

Lots of minor-league teams use the special occasion jersey gimmick but Calgary's ECHL team takes it to another level. One of the models is Flames prospect Gord Baldwin.

Uh, wow. Mardi gras? Friday the thirteenth? Maybe a little excessive.

"Las Vegas, which unveiled new black and white uniforms this season, is waiting to receive another shipment of new black jerseys, because the first ones were burned in the laundry this season when the team played at Utah."

Just wondering, how do you burn jerseys in the laundry? Set the dryer on too hot?

That's what all of these are for.

I love how people think it's a little much with the others... but haven't mentioned the Blue Man Group one... or mention that the Blue Man Group isn't blue on the jersey. WDF?!?!?!

I like the Veteran's Day jersey.

And the Mardi Gras one should have had boobies - they would have sold alot more of them.

Good job by the Vega$ folks with this concept.

Anything to get your name and picture in the paper on a regular basis, especially in the city of glitter and lights where bold is good, and over the top is better.

They should lend out their marketers/designers to QC. The third QC jersey was pathetic and their regular jerseys arent much better.

The team also has worn an April Fools' Day jersey -- with a powder blue, mustard yellow and brown color scheme -- that was intended to be as ugly as possible. It was, but that didn't stop fans from buying it.
I gotta find a picture of this one...
