BigW Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Maybe not weird, but memorable and fun- the Chicago Connection's unis, especially their Main Guard with the violin case and tommy guns. I know there have to be pics out there.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Thunder Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I guess it was a Boy Scout troop that wore those Hilex outfits (must have been little guys). Here's a photo, so any non-Minnesotans can see what Pat and I are talking about: http://www.mntroop13.org/history.php 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there have to be pics out there.. Chicago Connections Gunners: DCN had a front page picture (By Moe Knox I believe) of the Tommy Gun toting members of the Connections CG.

goalieguy Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Yes, they looked like they came right out of Some Like it Hot.......complete with flowers in their lapels. I always thought they came out of "Guys and Dolls" - and I was surprised they NEVER played that.. Still the most gorgeous corps jacket - black satin with a full back embroidered Chicago skyline with the corps name embroidered underneath..totally Bad*** I can't imagine what it cost to do the artwork!

BigW Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Yes George, the Ohio Brass Factory. Hair Bear and Stan Mihalcawez (I think my spelling with Stan's name is close) were with the corps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
