You have to make “XXXXXXX XXXXXX CHAMPIONS” gear ahead of time, so the team can wear it after the game and fans can buy it ASAP. We know this, and we know that they make it for both teams, and that the ones that don’t win get sent to third-world countries.
Kings Stanley Cup Championship gear is already being sold in LA
JINX OF THE CENTURY? (No, probably not. Just some shirts being sold.)
However, goodness forbid we actually see the stuff before a team is 100 percent guaranteed as champion, and OH NO THAT’S A JIIIIIINX (h/t: Yahoo!)
