Not gonna lie… had no clue there was such a thing as professional lacrosse. Apparently there is… this is the Philly team.
The @PhillyWings of the @NLLNetwork announced today that the team will be revolutionizing jerseys by using Wings players’ Twitter handles as their nameplate for the team’s game against the @NLLBandits at @WellsFargoCtr on Sunday, February 12 at 4 p.m.
Half my readers don’t even know what that sentence just said. @this, @that… twitter stills scares some people. I would like to point out that this is not “revolutionizing jerseys” though. Maybe it’s the first time for an entire pro sports team to do it, but the first time I saw it was CNBC’s Darren Rovell as a Tampa Bay Ray.
See? You’re not so clever, lax bros. Well, maybe you are… without your twitter handles on the back of your jerseys… I’d have no clue you existed.
