I always though it was just kind of geeky. Like driving to a baseball field with all your plate gear on (like your mother dressed you for the game).
All of the baseball and softball umpires here go to games with their uniform on. The PU puts his plate gear on in the parking lot.
When I was reffing soccer, I always wore my uniform to the game - even at the HS level. Most times, I would not wear my uniform shirt to the game (colors were black, red, yellow, or fuscia) and have on a black t-shirt. When I got to the field, I might have to change my uniform shirt depending on the team colors. In colder weather, I wore a black warm-up suit.
