New Fan Fad: His/Her Personalized Jerseys

Posted by Matt Sebek, December 15, 2009

A new trend is sweeping through St. Louis sporting venues; one that elicits foresight, preparation, and above all else, love. With the emergence of pink jersey options throughout professional sports, the ability to proclaim love for your spouse and a grown man on the field - at the same time - is completely possible. There, I just wrote the marketing pitch. You're welcome, MLB.

We're talking about the His/Her Jersey Duo phenomenon.

From a philosophical standpoint, the his/her jersey matching is a worthwhile study in low self-respect. The guy is seen courting around a woman who is openly declaring her love for another man. Have some self-respect. However, the woman is no better. She's publicly proclaiming her preference to be with a professional athlete....but she's settling for the schlub on her arm, for now.

Keep your eye on His/Her Jersey Duos across the country.

It's becoming more popular than Ford Mustangs and Busch Light in St. Louis.

I wish the deadbeat who knocked me up had at least bought me a pink T-shirt before leaving me.

You know Bill Simmons and Chad Ford are somewhere, arm in arm, declaring their homo love by wearing matching Kevin Durant jerseys....Simmons is the one wearing pink.

Really upping your "fan research" in St. Louis lately. It's like "JSF on assignment".

The great part is 90% of the Mustangs I see in STL are the crappy base V6 versions. Note to Hoosiers: If your car puts out the same horsepower as a Jeep Liberty...it is not a muscle car. I don't care how hard you stomp the gas pedal, it still takes you 7 seconds to do 0-60. Also, putting window graphics on the car doesn't make it any faster.

When did Mustangs surpass the Firebird and the El Camino in popularity in MO?

You can just as easily swap the male for the female (and vice versa) in the "philosophy" paragraph and cover all possible combinations.
