ASA uniform in Colorado

They tend to wear grey there, both for slow-pitch and fast-pitch. Yes, I worked a deaf regional slow-pitch tournament in Westminster once, and the local umpires had grey shorts on. Just about floored me. If the complex I'm thinking of is the one being used, it's really nice, with an awesome view of the Rockies.

Yes, those butt-ugly grey coaches shorts with belt loops, similar design to the blue shorts we have from ASA for slow-pitch.

I've seen gray shorts where someone had their fech's tailored. On a few different umpires.

So, these were younger guys who wear their hat backwards on the bases and "tailored" plate pants shorts with a 4 inch too big waist to get the proper baggy low crotch look. Right?

But, the really, really important question: Were they genuine ASA britches with western cut pockets?

These were not the heather grey shorts...these were that white grey coaches shorts. It was just butt-ugly.
