Called the “Best Uniforms Ever” by Sports Illustrated (click here) and desired by Keith Olbermann on ESPN (click here) to the point that he said he would “probably like to buy one,” the jerseys continue a long tradition in Condorstown of giving back to the community. With over $860,000 raised for local charities through jersey auctions, the team continually raises the bar for charitable work.
The Condors have worn more than 35 specialty jerseys in their history, honoring and commemorating a plethora of people and events including Navy SEALs, Pearl Harbor Memorial, the wrestling singlet of Olympic Gold Medal winner Jake Varner, Bakersfield’s Country Music heritage, Michael Jackson (in which the player wore 1 white glove during the game), and the 25th Anniversary of the 1980 USA Olympic Team Miracle on Ice.
Modeled by Alta Loma, Calif. native D Joe Marciano and
Canadian F Cameron Abneyhere are some distinguishing characteristics of the sweater:
- Abraham Lincoln rising to delivering the address on front
- The Condor has a top hat on the crest
- Cannons on the sleeves with stars on the maroon bands
- Script writing of The Gettysburg Address on the back with the opening line “Four score and seven years ago…” bold on the back shoulders
- A battle scene in color on the bottom
- Simply overall awesomeness
In addition to the jersey auction benefiting BARC (click here) the Condors are offering free admission to all military personnel (retired, Veteran, and active) simply by showing their Military I.D. at the box office.
