What's the Weirdest MU Gear You Own?

[Benny B]

I saw this today from Allen-Edmonds... even ignoring the price, I don't even know what to say to these (although A-E must do some pretty good "fan business" to keep coming out with these types of offerings).

But it got me thinking... between the A-E kicks and Jimmy Mac's fabulous check pants, who else has that MU-something in your closet that makes your spouse or kids cringe?  [If you have them, pictures would be spectacular.]

I suppose mine is my very first Fanatics t-shirt... to say the thing is tattered and torn would be a severe understatement.  All of the screen printing has pretty much worn off, and frankly, one more cycle through the wash and the thing will probably fall apart.  Nevertheless, I just can't bring myself to get rid of it.

I still have this old MU athletic towel that Rick Majerus handed me....it's a little crusty and still smells awful after all these years...a picture would not work well as the MU logo seems smudged.

LOL...pretty sure I'm getting a pair of those for my birthday (to go along with the Al McGuire style blazer my wife is getting me). May need to convince her to let me wear it early for National Marquette Day...birthday is Feb 22, last home game I can attend are Xavier on the 18th and St. John's on the 21st.

You got one too, hey?

Get some Florsheim shoes instead.

[GooooMarquette]

Blue and Gold wristbands from the '77 Final Four...still in the package.

[T-Bone]

I would pay handsomely for a Mike Deane autographed game worn seat belt.

[Galway Eagle]

I own an old al McGuire center banner that has a list of every postseason appearance 1955-2008. I keep meaning to update it but it seems like a big pain

I have a pair. I'll post pics in a bit.

Here they are. Definitely not for every day wear. However, I do enjoy breaking them out at the office as tournament play approaches. Sadly, they haven't made many appearances recently.

Not apparel.  But when I was a freshman they used to just hand the big heads out in the student section.  One day mid season all student ticket holders get an email from MUBB (if I'm remembering correctly) saying that you would need to hand over your student ID to get a big head and then your ID would be returned to you when you returned the big head at the end of the game because the Dwyane Wade big head had gone missing.

Fast forward to later that school year and I go to a friend of a friend's apartment and what's hanging from their wall?  The Dwyane Wade big head.  Wanted to steal it from them so badly, but didn't.

We had Print World print those off, then we had to cut them to shape. I'm shocked how long some of those lasted.

Warrior sweatshirt that I would wear to games, if I lost 50lbs.

Eat yo hearts out y'all 'cuz I gotta peace of da 1977 NCAA Championship net from da Omni in ATL, hey?

[warriorchick]

I have two Loudmouth golf skirts I wear to games.  One of them is the paint splatter pattern, and the other is the blue and gold swirls.  Carolyn Kieger approached me once and asked me where she could get one.

At a game last year, Jimmy Mac and I were both wearing gold polo shirts and the paint splatter bottoms (pants on Jimmy Mac, of course).  I tweeted a picture of myself and tagged him, and he told me to come down at halftime for a picture.  I use it as my Facebook profile picture a lot.

And so far I have never seen anyone else wear the golf skirt at games, so if you ever notice a middle-aged blonde wearing one, yeah, that's Warriorchick, all right.

I'm pretty sure I had a pair of MU boxer shorts, until a girlfriend swipped them from me during college.  Samething happened to a pair of MU Umbro's I had....

It would be interesting to know if they ever have any of these in their little outlet store in Port Washington.

Also, Dr. Lovell tweeted out a picture of the Allen Edmonds he wore to his inauguration ceremony - they were navy with gold laces.

A friend of mine has blue and gold Topsiders that he wears to games...I haven't been able to find them online.  If anyone knows where I can buy some, let me know.

I wear those to games, comfort.

I've got a T-shirt with an MU fist holding a plucked chicken by the neck and on the chicken it says Notre Dame.  My roommates DAD who was a domer "was offended" by that shirt

I still have my intramural champions tank top somewhere from my basketball playing days back in 1988.  Sixth man baby!!!

[MUBurrow]

Those AEs are fly as hell. For the fellas that have em, what is the best MU color combo?  Since they don't let you customize on the site its hard to guess.  I'm guessing the primary needs to be the blue - go regular blue or navy? Is yellow more the MU color or does the gold match pretty well?

No way. I saw you recently. I'll have to say hello next time.

To be back on topic: My "weirdest" (not really to me) Marquette related gear is the extensive collection of blue and gold bow ties that I usually try and wear to games. Looking to expand into the Stan Johnson world of blazers as well.

Odd, I always dated broads who didn't wear underwear, hey?
