Most of us own them because they are reversible and we wear the black side out during pre-game and at half time on those cold, rainy, and this year extremely windy nights.

Agreed.
I will wear the striped jacket for lower level games where it's extremely cold, windy, or raining.... but I won't wear it ever for varsity games (other then black-side-out during warm-ups/halftime).

Only happened twice for me this year though.
