Fire. Something something something fire flames. I mean it. I need to get my hands on one. In the words of our fearless leader: Don’t want it, need it. I couldn’t find them on the Musketeers site but hopefully they put them up for sale at some point. I’ll pay top dollar for one. The corn cobs bordering the bottom of the jerseys? Call the fire department, this one’s outta control. Sometimes Iowa gets caught under the “All you guys have is corn” stereotype and some times it’s annoying. Other times you have to embrace it because it is a big part of our culture. Hell, I grew up in a city where the minor league team’s nickname is Kernels. This is one of those times. Those hockey jerseys are perfect. I can just picture the Musketeers walking into an arena in Russia and the opposing team forfeiting on the spot. Iowa in the mother fucking house. Give us the trophy. That’s how great they are. Need one.
