This may be of interest to some of the Delaware fans here that aren't on the Blue Hen Club email list. The Blue Hen Club has teamed with Boathouse Sports to put out some UD gear with proceeds going to the UD Athletic Fund.
I think I'm going to pick up one of the Gore-Tex jackets and put a bright gold '93 on the sleeve.
If you're a wise ass that wants to comment about how anything related to UDAF is extortion and how anyone who buys anything from this site is a lemming or a shill, please spare us. Go beat your wife or kick your dog or whatever else helps complete your miserable existence and leave the rest of us out of it.
My ONLY guess is maybe the football team actually wears these exact ones and they think they'll have security issues with people posing as football players/coaches? Dunno.

Never mind...carry on.
Geez, those jackets are expensive. Do they come with a happy ending?
See post #2.
I enjoyed going to the Gore store in Newark...great stuff, except they were always WAY overpriced. I only shopped if things were on clearance...can't stand overpaying for anything simply because of a name. Their close out sale was fantastic...picked up a TON of gear %75 off.
The store closed and the inventory has moved back to one of the Gore properties...a store vailable only for employees. Thankfully, one of my neighbors works there and can still get us stuff at the employee rate.

They must have gotten a few inquiries about that, as Golf and Football are now available.
I'm going to pick up a Football Gore-Tex. I missed out on the old-school UD Gore-Tex jackets you see on some of the graybeards and bluehairs in Section C, and I want to be ready for the rain this year. It seemed like it rained during tailgate hours of the majority of our home games last year.

How about this?
SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

$249 for customized Gore-Tex and NCAA license is a deal actually.
$249 + $1 will allow you the honor of purchasing 2-season tickets in Section D or K. Hmmmm, jacket or seats ... jacket or seats. Sorry UDAF, there is a bottom to my pocket. But that's another subject; it is a nice jacket.

I'm not looking for a Couture/MMA shirt, hat, or jacket; basically something without skulls and bones all over the place. I'm extremely proud that I found something this great in my life (jits), and would love to sport it around for all to see drool Good sites, anyone?
