GriffinM6 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Well the annual college colors day is Friday, the 31st. On this day, fans all over the country support their favorite college(s) by wearing their colors, merchandise, jerseys, etc. I plan on supporting my 2 favorite college teams; Miami and Pitt on Friday. I will wear my white Ken Dorsey jersey over my grey Pitt tshirt. What do you plan on wearing and/or doing to support your team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfwabel Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Which apparel provider pushed this?It is CLC (Collegiate Licensing Company) propaganda. Just like next week the NFL will probably use "Back to Football" Friday as their gimmick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

oddball Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 This is the first time I've heard about this "movement". If I wear my throwback LA Kings jersey, will I be supporting LSU? If I wear my black and silver LA Kings Stanley Cup jersey... I have no clue who I will be supporting... any clues on that one? I don't have any college gear as I don't have a team I follow.

sc49erfan15 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I saw a lot more promo stuff about this last year. It was all over Facebook, which made it seem more legitimate than something created by an apparel manufacturer.That said, I'll probably rock a Winthrop shirt and a UNCG hat.

dfwabel Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I saw a lot more promo stuff about this last year. It was all over Facebook, which made it seem more legitimate than something created by an apparel manufacturer.This is a CLC promotion and they are located in Atlanta. While they began this started in 2005, in 2009, the "day" got a sponsor. One which is not really wanting any more publicity than what they will have by sponsoring two games this weekend....

Billy B Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Eh, I'll wait until Saturday when there's an actual football game to wear my orange and blue. On Friday I'll just wear whatever I normally would on a Friday with no class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
