MarkAtnip Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Does anyone have complete list of the teams that have worn GREEN St. Patrick's day jerseys?There have been some green Astros jerseys appear on the "counterfeit" thread and it got me wondering which greens were authentic. I believe the Reds were the first ones to wear them. I can prove the existence of TWINS and RANGERS greens as I have those in my uniform collection purchased through the team. I have seen others, but have no "proof" Any help would be appreciated. Pictures would be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michigan Dave Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I believe the ChiSox started it- or were at least one of the first. Boston also wears them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 The Sox wore them in a regular season game recently - "6 months plus or minus a couple days to St. Patty's Day!" I'm pretty sure every team wears them in Spring Training these days. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure every team wears them in Spring Training these days. Yeah, they did a "Halfway to St. Patty's" game on Sept. 9. They wore their regular home jerseys, but what was black became green. It was kind of cool. I have been in Chicago the past 2 weekends (passing through to Iowa last weekend, for Northwestern this) and picked up a cool Nike Sox hat, white with a green shamrock behind the Sox logo on the front, and a green Nike Sox tee.

Moser316 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I believe the ChiSox started it- or were at least one of the first. Boston also wears them. If memory serves me correctly, it was the 1978 Cincinnati Reds that started the trend. Their uniforms looked exactly as their home uniforms would have, except green took the place of red as a the trim color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cooperstown Collection actually has vector versions of the Reds' St. Patrick's Day graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Boy Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Since at least some time in the '80s, the Red Sox have worn green hats with the red "B" on St Patrick's day. THe past two seasons, they have also worn green shirts. The shrits are mesh, with the RED SOX script on the front and the pair of sox logo on the sleeve.

Discrim Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 heh, the Cubs are lazy, they just wear green hats. curiously enough, the Brewers don't even do that (I don't even think they did when they had green in their colors) A strong mind gets high off success, a weak mind gets high off bull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discrim Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 shoot, we aint alone...there's several teams nowadays who just wear a green hat and don't bother with a matching jersey-I recall the Rockies and Rangers were also guilty, and possibly the Braves too. plop, either do or don't-just the special hat looks lazy.
