6 Overtime victory remembered in orange and blue
SYRACUSE -- The company that brought Syracuse Orange fans the Gerry McNamara overrated t-shirt in 2006 has struck again at the moment when basketball fans bonded with the team. Holy Shirt has delivered 1000 new orange t-shirts to the Syracuse University bookstore with "Syracuse Marathon Men" printed on the front. The back of the t-shirt reads "224 points, 226 minutes, 6 OT's, two days and one for the ages. "
Holy Shirt owner John Groat was seated in the second row at Madison Square Garden last night during the six overtimes. He began talking with his brother Chris during the overtime about concepts for the shirt that went into production this morning. After resolving issues of licensing and talking with the University they decided on the design and got the shirts to the bookstore at the Schine Student Center by the middle of the day.
The shirts are available at the S.U. bookstore or be ordering the online for delivery or pick up.
