Pomfret Honors Dorm Intramural Team.

Back in the Houston Nutt days, Nutt let players from the football team play intramural basketball.

Pre smart phone, but it’d be pretty funny to have video of our honors dorm team playing their dorm team. It was a massacre and they brought a crowd.

I have quite a few early 2000s high school t shirts in there. But the oldest one is probably a hunting coat from my paw paw.

I have a picture of him wearing it standing beside his new 74 Ford truck

I have a few tshirts from the college team I was on that still fit me. About 15-17 years old. I'm the same weight now that I was when I was 21. Not as lean but still staying in shape.


I usually only keep 15-20 tshirts and donate old ones unless theyre sentimental.

1995-ish. So yes, I literally have shirts older than many people on here.

I have a Duckhead shirt that I took Sr. pictures with, I graduated in 95, so I've had the shirt since at least 94ish when I took them. Purchased it at Bells on Prospect Blvd in Houma.

Cleaning out my grandfathers house after he passed away I found some D. H. Holmes shirts still with the tags on them and they went out of business in 1989. I kept them and wear them from time to time

Also have a 1991 LSU World Series shirt and a shirt from Gihles men’s store in Baton Rouge that closed in the 90s

I have a few shirts that are probably 20 years old.

I have a jacket that I bought in college around 1997 or so. I still wear it every year.

I also have leather coat that was my grandfather's from the 1940s.

I have a shirt from one the 1980s LSU Sugar Bowl games vs Nebraska. My wife and daughter wear it occasionally as it's the classic striped sleeves, 80s retro style. No chance it would fit me

I routinely wear a shirt that was my dad's when he first started flying for Eastern Airlines. It was from probably 80-81ish. It is still in perfect shape and comfortable as hell.

I have a polo shirt that I was wearing when I evacuated for Katrina. I do not wear it. It’s just there because I refuse to let it go.

I haven’t pulled these things out the closet in years. Might start wearing them around town.

I still have the shir from the tuxedo my mom bought for me my junior year of high school. And that was in 1997. But I have a cardigan i got at a thrift store in the early 2000s. Think it was from the 60s.
