I came across this picture and I found it to be very unique. Has anyone seen a uniform like this before?

Another unique football thing I know is two different helmets.

Millard North which has this bizarre tape/helmet stripe

And a college team St. Anselm college which has their helmet look like a replica of an old leather helmet

I live in Millard (in Omaha), very close to Millard North H.S. That tape around the helmet is an old tradition. It's kind of a long story so I will try to sum it up. During summer practice most teams put tape on the helmet with the players name. The Mustangs are no exception. However, they keep a blank piece of tape on all season. A long time ago, some players asked the school if they could have a logo on the helmet. At the time, the school or coach said no. So the players kept the tape on during the season and the coach allowed it. It became a tradition and eventually part of the uniform. I know there is more to the story, but I am not certain on all of the details.
