Ugh, don't remind me. My local UIC is requiring the new USA shirt for sanctioned games after August 1. Luckily my national is using the "worm" ASA shirts, which I just bought last year. I am glad they will get some use.

NFHS still permits a navy cardigan. I am tempted to get one at the thrift shop to wear on the bases next season.

Back to OP: for a non-sanctioned alumni game, you can ABSOLUTELY wear Hawaiian shirts as a crew. Hell, work it 4-man, too, if you can. Back in the day when I was a young pup in Nebraska, Hawaiian shirts were the unofficial "I'm off this game" shirt of all the cool umpires. By which I mean, the old guys. I still have several, but I can't fit into any of them.
