‘Blue, 80!’

“You won’t want to wear them all the time – but you could.”

Football and fashion go together like…well, not a whole lot. Nevertheless, I’ve got two commercials for you today from October of 1972 featuring just that.

First up, Bob Griese of the Miami Dolphins (my childhood favorite team despite growing up in L.A.) in a spot for Sears slacks. Second, Fran Tarkenton of the Minnesota Vikings for Arrow shirts. Quarterback style on view. Go long!
