Asinine.

Some people don't want to buy and wear a 9$ red t-shirt, they'd rather wear the team jersey they paid $100+ for. Seems reasonable to me.

Yikes, you need to relax on the red thing.
According to Wikipedia, red is not white...

The "Sea" of Red (Not White or Black)

During the Flames' run to the Stanley Cup finals of 2004, most of the Flames fans attending the hockey games at the Saddledome wore a red jersey with the Flames' famous flaming C on it. Many of those who did not have a red jersey wore a red shirt instead. Thus, the "Sea" of Red became the nickname for the fans at the Saddledome during the Flames' playoff runs. The tradition of the Sea/"C" of red dates back to the 1985 Stanley Cup playoffs as the Flames encouraged fans to wear red in their series against the Winnipeg Jets. The Jets' responded by encouraging fans to wear white, creating the Winnipeg White Out.
Note the part above where it says "Many of those who did not have a red jersey wore a red shirt instead". Nowhere in this statement is a White Jersey mentioned.

Don't be an arse, wear red.
