Does Ruberti's out of Philly still do the custom work for the Authentic Jersey's from the Jets Shop? It would say it on the front of the package that your jersey came in.
I have been living my entire life thinking it was called a "mailbox." You learn something new every day, usually from soxxx.
Boxmail sounds like a mail where boxes goes in. Mailbox? Screw it, I'm headed to the bartitty. But first, I'll stop by the store grocery.
I think it shipped out of Indianapolis. I'll have to check the package when I get home, I'm in New Jersey right now cause I'm going to the game tomorrow...sorry if it sounds like I'm bragging I'm just really freakin' excited. So those of you watching/at the game tomorrow if you see a dude in a #13 jersey with a green and white Iron Man helmet, yeah that's me.
Why the iron man helmet? My nephew loves iron man and he is 5. Is it hot in there? Can you see out of it?
Yeah I can see out of it, the eyes give things a bit of a blue tint. I got the idea for the helmet when I got tickets for the playoff game against the Colts. I went with my best friend who is a Colts fan and our tickets ended up being front row right next to the Jets player tunnel so my goal was to get some team recognition or get on TV. I thought about a sign but everyone does that and I was walking through target and saw the Iron Man helmet in the clearance area and a light bulb went off in my brain. My next stop was Home Depot and 2 days later with the help of my brother the Iron Man helmet became Iron Fan. It worked too, I ended up getting high-fives from a bunch of players including Eric Smith and Jason Taylor, but the really cool part was Matt Slauson tossing his wrist band to me and then David Harris stopping in front of us and handing me his gloves then giving me a high-five. I'm telling you it was one of the most awesome experiences of my life. ...and in response to the Power Ranger comment, "It's morphin' time!"
If you get a moment could you post a pic of the back. I am curious how the font looks since they no longer use the same shop that does the work on the actual players jersey's.
I can't post it as a link or pic because I haven't had enough posts on the board yet. The cut of the jersey is different too. On the old ones the back was slightly longer than the front, on the new ones both the front and back are the same length. I have uploaded pics on my twitter page @Iron_Fan there is a pic of the nameplate there.
