Too Bad I Won't Be Able to See It

Tonight's game against Rutgers is "Dress Like Jim Boeheim Night" at the Carrier Dome.
Orange fans of all ages are invited to (a) don the chaotic clothing similar to that favored by Boeheim in 1980 when the Dome first opened and (b) register at the Syracuse Athletics marketing table in the backcourt area prior to the game. The five entrants who most resemble the back-in-the-day Boeheim garb, hair, specs ... the whole package will then be paraded onto the court at halftime and presented with prizes.
The man, himself, has signed off on this with good humor. And why not? With all the photographic and video evidence that is available in this town, how could Boeheim deny his garish past during which he rarely saw a stripe he wouldn't mix with a polka dot or a big collar he wouldn't wear with a fat lapel?

Of everything he's ever worn that hat is my favorite
A great look for Coach Boeheim, Stacey and I have the shirt Kueth is wearing
Mid-90s Boeheim, that's J-Dubbs in the background
