actually I dont have any and i love Yao its just 90% of the "Rockets fans" i see in La have Yao jerseys I got the tmac jerseys years ago two authentics off of ebay for 50 bucks shipped (one home and red throwback from 5 years ago) nothing against the dreaded Y0F title but i certainly do not want to be mistaken for one. had I lived in Houston def would have one I will probably get one soon enough though just wanted to get my Lowry and Ariza jersey first
I'm with you on that one. I haven't seen many rockets jerseys here in LA that isn't Yao Ming's. I want to buy an alternate jersey of Ariza so I can rub it in my gf's face since she's a Lakers fan and her favorite player was Ariza. Until know, she's begging the Rockets to trade Ariza back for Artest. lol
They did not have alternate jerseys at rocket shop yesterday night, I asked and they said not until Friday.
http://theboxhouston.com/sports/thechile/houston-rockets-debut-new-alternate-jersey-on-friday/ Yao Ming autograph session at Rockets Team Shop on Saturday This Friday the Houston Rockets will take the court at Toyota Center wearing a new alternate jersey. The new jersey will feature the ‘ketchup and mustard’ colors from the Rockets’ 1994 and 1995 championship years with HOUSTON on the front. The first 3,000 fans in attendance will receive a free kid-size replica of the alternate jersey, courtesy of Toyota. The jersey will be available for sale exclusively at the Rockets Team Shop on Friday during the game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, as well as Saturday, November 7 between 10a-3p. On Saturday, Yao Ming will sign autographs at the Rockets Team Shop for the first 100 customers to purchase the new alternate jersey.
Technically something has happened, #change to # 3 technically making your jersey old school But don't worry, something will happen soon, or my name is not Morey. The last sentence was a typo
This is correct ! I went to the game last night. There WERE supposed to do it last night, but changed it to SAT. OPENS AT 10am. They will give you a voucher - YAO will not be there @ 10 so you will have to hang around!
hoping they sell it online tomorrow. still dont have a brooks or scola......debating on those two. trevor still needs to earn my love, but he'll get there. no man crush on him yet
Lack of imagination. These new jerseys are a perfect example why the Rockets cannot win a championship. They're attempting to quiet the fans down with redesigned back in the glory days jerseys so that known recognizes that Yao Ming's career is over and that the idiot Rockets fans have come close to running McGrady out of town...who may sign with Chicago. The least they could do is an all Chinese character jersey, which is what I have been saying for years! Oh well, this is simple just a microcosm.
Wait wait...so the first 100 who purchase a jersey Saturday will get a YM autograph? How much is a jersey? I'm very tempted to try to purchase two. One for myself and one for my cousin in Asia who is a huge Rockets fan.
I'm confused. Is it the first 100 people to buy them from the shop period (as in if someone bought one during the Portland game, do they count in the 100), or is it the first 100 people to buy one that Saturday? I've been trying to get a signed Ming jersey for my collection for some time. How much does a regular jersey cost at TC?
i'd say there's no way for them to keep track of who bough tthem prior to the OKC game, so i'm guessign it's the first 100 that day...
Yeah, no one bought anything b/c they were not sold.... On saturday nov 7 @ 10am the TC will open doors to sell the uniform. Im guessing it will be 70-150 dollars depending if you buy the authentic or swingman. The first 100 will get a voucher to be able to get it signed later in the day by Yao Ming.
