Arizona basketball: On crazy hat day, Gabe's fame, Red Sea

It’s hard for Arizona Wildcats fans to stand out at the MGM Grand. It didn’t earn the moniker “McKale North” for no reason.

But Paul Harrison and Tom Wurr have found a way.

Since 2002, the two Tucsonans have traveled to Los Angeles and Las Vegas to watch the Wildcats play in the Pac-10 and Pac-12 Tournaments.

They always wear custom hats made out of basketballs.

This year, they upgraded. Harrison and Wurr walked into the MGM Grand Garden Arena sporting outfits made up of cut-up basketballs. The pebbled leather was glued to football shoulder pads and motocross vests; it also covered their arms.
