The Chicago Cubs easily lead the league in fashion statements, with manager Joe Maddon’s propensity for turning his slogans into T-shirts. And one of his designs has prompted the Cardinals to rethink a policy at Busch Stadium.
During the Cubs’ first visit to St. Louis this season, ushers have told fans wearing Maddon’s “Try Not to Suck” T-shirt to remove the shirt or turn it inside out. The T-shirt, which is sold to raise money for Maddon’s Respect 90 Foundation, features a silhouette of signature Maddon’s Buddy Holly-like glasses and a verb that the Cardinals have for years not allowed at the ballpark.
