Why did they played in home jerseys in NJ ? Laundry problems or something special?
I don’t know, but the equipment guys really loves to booz so it wouldn’t surprise me if it was a mistake on their part. I once had to play an away game with the home team’s away jerseys. The equipment guy had been up drinking all night so he wouldn’t miss the early buss. We had no jerseys with us when we started to dress up. He was carried into the locker room and slept through the pre game pep talks and music and first intermission. Then he woke up during the 2nd period (bet the game was a 2PM start) and wondered why the heck we weren’t wearing our own jerseys. Apparently he had not forgot about them but put them in the engine room so that they would dry better since they were still a little wet after being washed. It was totally impossible to understand for him that anyone would have thought that HE would have forgotten then.
Oh well.
