In Vermont, we order our shirts with the IAABO logo on the left chest and an American flag patch centered on the back right below the collar.

Also, we have the option of two shirt styles: traditional black/white stripes and grey with black pin-stripes.

Any other states have the option of different shirt styles?

Must look pretty silly if refs have different shirts. How can we act as fashion police to teams if refs aren't 'uniform' Do you contact partners as to 'dress code' for games?

Devil's Advocate ...

For your information:

U.S. Flag Code (4 US Code 1)
Sec. 8. - Respect for flag
(j) No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations.

That being said, my referee jersey has a flag patch on the back, I wear a flag patch on my laboratory coat at work every day, and I display the flag at home on every national, and state holiday, as well as every time a Connecticut soldier, sailor, airman, or marine, gets killed in Iraq, or Afghanistan, so far 41 flag displays:

I think our association considers ourselves a patriotic organization.

I do believe that's an empty beer bucket next to our striped friend. So it's not just the jersey that's sideways
