bonwich Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Does anyone have a link for those hideous, gaudy, wonderful Billiken-blue large-checked suits that I used to see at the games occasionally, especially sitting courtside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Box and Won Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Someone asked me the other day why I no longer wear the Loudmouth pants. I promised that once the team is good again, the pants will be back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsmith19 Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I dunno about the checked ones, but I have a solid Billiken blue blazer I wear to games occasionally. It is ca. 1986 Jim Cornette-esque. I'm still surprised Ford hasn't picked one of those up yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonwich Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 Thanks! I could have sworn there was a matching jacket, but as I think about it, the one guy I remember wearing it all the time had a fairly bright color of solid blue jacket. However, I did find this -- I'm "checking" on color varieties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
