That’s the old UA Tigercats helmet. Would recognize that anywhere.

There’s a Canadian flag football league called UA Rise. One of their teams is named Tigercats after Hamilton’s CFL team. No idea why there would be a helmet, though, and that thing looks pretty old.

Yes, i saw the Hamilton Tiger cats are the same colors but the UA is throwing me off. Couldnt find a college that started with an A , so im thinking it might be a high school.

What is a Tigercat?

Is that like a Dalmatiandog?

It's a cat that looks like a tiger.

Or it's the palomino horse of tigers.

More importantly, why are there 2 lag bolts directly in the middle of the side of the helmet?

There is an Upper Arlington High School that are black and gold here in Columbus. They go by "UA". Very old money, and is the High School where Jack Nicklaus went.

The only problem is they are the Golden Bears (part of where Jack got his nickname).

Looks pretty small. Could be for a youth league that won't show up in any news searches.

I believe that is a special helmet made for Harry C. Lee, who attended the University of Alabama and then played for the Hamilton Tigercats in 1957.

Just kidding, but that's what came up on my Google search.

The A may stand for Academy. That opens up some possibilities.

Auburn concept helmet. They’ve always been confused by their mascots.
