nash61 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 So after the Cleveland Monsters wore Indians tribute jerseys, I was wondering about other cross-sport tribute jerseys. The Monsters also have also done a Cavaliers night. The Guelph Storm wore Hamilton Tiger-Cats jerseys on Grey Cup Sunday in 2013 The Regina Pats wore Blue Jays jerseys earlier this season On September 20, 2012 at 0:50 AM, 'CS85 said: It's like watching the hellish undead creakily shuffling their way out of the flames of a liposuction clinic dumpster fire.

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

SJAnfield Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 http://www.stadiumgiveawayexchange.com/february-4-2017-san-jose-sharks-warriors-mashup-jersey/ Sharks have a Warriors themed warm up. They'll wear it Saturday when the Coyotes come to town. I could be wrong, but I think they had a SF Giants inspired jersey once too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJ Sands Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I watched a bit of that Monsters-Wolves game and was impressed by how well done their uniform was. Only quarrel was wearing gray breezers instead of white, though I understand why they did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerGuyJordan Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Do the Islanders' black alternates count? Thunder Bay Lynx - International Hockey Association (2 seasons, 2017-18, 2019-20, 2018 Xtreme Cup Champions) | Houston Armadillos - Major League Hockey (2 seasons, 2016-18) | Minnesota Muskies - North American Basketball Association (1 season, 2017-2018) | Louisville Thoroughbreds - United League of Baseball (1 season, 2017, 2017 United Cup Champions) | Las Vegas Thunderbirds - International Basketball League (1 season, 2016-17, 2017 Champions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 The Cavs black alt is almost serviceable as a hockey jersey. Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

Ferdinand Cesarano Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 The St. Louis Blues paid tribute to the Cardinals. Though they used the wrong number font. That font was used by the Cardinals in the early 1960s. But, by the late 1960s, the Cardinals were back to the standard block font. The Blues got the number font right when they did a powder blue version. And the Cardinals reciprocated. A weird thing about this is retired numbers seemingly springing back to life. The same sort of bizarre number-related sight occurred when the L.A. Kings wore Dodger jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianLion Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 This sort of thing only seems to happen with hockey, where the team tries to incorporate the branding/imagery of the local team from a more popular sport (at least here in the US) although you do see other sports occasionally reciprocate if the hockey team is making a playoff run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eRay Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Not quite like the rest in this thread, but maybe some would count it? They use it for St. Patrick's Day but was used in-season to honor Red Auerbach as well. They've also used it to honor Celtics championship wins. They have multiple versions of the green jersey over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sykotyk Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Of the four sports, hockey has the best jerseys. So, it would make sense that 'tribute' uniforms would best be done with them. NBA with tank tops, or even the short sleeve Cavs championship jerseys just don't seem right. Football has the general belief of "Numbers, Must HAVE NUMBERS" that make torso logos odd, such as CFL/WLAF trying to do the small number and giant logos. And baseball are button-up shirts, that although similar logo placement to hockey, are done in by being button-up interfering with them. And the secondary purpose (merchandise), baseball uniforms aren't nearly as popular casual wear as football or hockey jerseys are (football due to just how much we love football, but hockey because it's a visually striking attire). Most people don't walk around wearing NBA jerseys. Or, if they do, they're wearing a white shirt underneath or something due to design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nash61 Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 Found this one today. The WHL's Prince Albert Raiders wore Saskatchewan Rush (NLL) inspired jerseys in late November.
