I think that uniform change in 1996 was an attempt to modernize the popular throwbacks from the 94 season (that they wore in Super Bowl 29) and they went with white pants for the first two years. in 1998 they brought back the gold pants and it looked great. Fun fact about that Garrison Hearst run - I was around 11 years old and at my friend's house watching the week 1 highlights and when they showed this game I EXCLAIMED in my little boy voice, "oh cool the 49ers brought back the gold pants!" This was met first with life-altering silence, and second his older brother said "why do you care what pants they're wearing, f**?" and that's when I learned to keep those thoughts to myself until I found this message board many years later. 36 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then it turns out there are ten ships coming at them, and he asks for his brown pants. Is that how the Buccaneers got their redesign? 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m a bit different in that I’ve always had friends who found sports uniforms at least a little bit interesting. Guess I’m just lucky. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The following week against Carolina was colder from a temperature standpoint, but far less miserable. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, it did remind me of the 49ers alot at the time when I was a kid. I always like that the Bucs red over white or white over white looks tended to happen early in the season or preseason. It was a fun little quirk. Then it was no white after Labor Day. Checking the GUD, after about 2000 or so the Bucs rarely wore the white pants beyond the second home game of the season. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
