JimF-LowBari Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Bought a Troopers shirt back and hat when I saw them in 74 or 75. But..... they were out of THE Troopers shirt and didn't get that until 77 or 78. THE shirt... blue with yellow crossed swords and corps name in yellow all over the front. Wore the hat all during college. Since there is a large Criminology Dept some people thought it was a cop hat. Like Gary... lot of pinbacks, mainly when we stopped at 79 DCI East Prelims on the way to a show in NJ.

dbngaa Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 1988 SCV Phantom of the Opera t-shirt I bought at DCI South in Birmingham, AL - my first live show. Wore it until it fell apart. Maybe one day I can find a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim K Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 A 27th Lancers t-shirt at the CYO Nationals in 1977. It was held at Harvard Stadium that year rather than Boston College. The woman selling the merchandise noticed I was looking at the 27th Lancers Yearbook and probably sensed I only had enough money for one or the other and I chose the t-shirt. She handed me the t-shirt, but there was also a copy of the yearbook--one that had a tattered cover that probably couldn't be sold. She told me to enjoy it and that maybe one day I'd be a 27th Lancer. Never joined 27th and it's been nearly thirty years since the corps took the field, but when I watch a Legacy DVD it's as if they only stopped competing yesterday.
