    Anybody tie any jigs based on their favorite sports teams colors and have any sucess? My states teams colors are black and orange and is a productive fall color.
    PS. You can show them off in the new NFL jig swap, with sign ups going on now.

    Nightprowler, this IS my other sport. My team colors are seen every morning at sunrise and sunset, and I couldn't get the effect tying them into a jig. But I can see how folks promote the team or school colors. I bet some of em look real good.
    Creativity is just intelligence fooling around

    I do know you better not post a picture with the name of your team involved without permission. I know about this for sure. Got an email from a lawyer about that stuff and the schools were not happy campers, LOL! Had to tell them I wouldn't do that any more. I do believe we all have spoke about Trademarks like Blakemore has on Roadrunner design, well School and Pro teams Trademark their names so stay away without permission.

    Had to take the name off my LSU Jig and Auburn Jigs. Still have the jigs and not the names, LOL! So took all the other names off that were team colors. I started this after about 4 years back one guy here was an LSU fan and another was an Ark. fan and they had a bet so that who's team lost had to buy the other guy his school team colors from me. It took a few years for someone that cared to notice, but had to remove the LSU and Auburn names off the jigs.

    Default Sports Color Theme Swap

    Thanks for the concern Skip, I think if it's just a few folks swaping jigs and nothing be sold or bought, we'll be ok. And we could use you and a few other to join the swap and complete the lineup. This one will be short and sweet!

    Man if I didn't have something like 1000-1200 jigs to tie I would, but just way too much for me as it is.
