“So, if you’re out tonight, don’t forget: if you’re on your bike, wear white. Amen.”
-The Rolling Stones
All the Flyers jerseys I’ve bought in the last several many years have been white. I live in DC and see a good chunk of my Flyers games with them as the road team, and it’s nifty when your jersey matches one on the ice (though it’s been a while since any of the jerseys on the ice had either “SYVRET” or “BARTULIS” on the back).
And for the past 15 years, white has been the color of the NHL road team, the underdog, as home crowds predominantly carpet the stands with the bold, rich color of the home team.
