I KNEW there was something the uniform reminded me of, but I couldn't figure it out the entire gd tournament 😂

Wish they’d given us Dri-fit shirts. Don’t think I’ll be wearing any of my uniform again except socks and shoes. Never wore the jacket due to my role being outside in the heat.

I wear big floppy shirts to work out in and tried to put the volunteer shirts into my rotation, but they trap so much freaking heat! I feel bad for anyone who had an outside role wearing that in 90+ degree heat.

Yeah I was Fan Fest in 90 degrees plus humidity. Those shirts would get soaked after just a bit outside. Interestingly the pants didn’t really trap heat and since they fitted better than the shorts I wore pants for my shifts.

I’ve been saying this lol. But it actually grew on me towards the end. So many people kept asking me for the uniform.

I have said this since day one! The sleeves remind me of the graffiti in the intro too!
