    Do/did you possess contraband BYU PE clothes?

    Time to fess up to possessing a contraband pair of BYU PE Department clothing either currently or at any time in the past

    I saw this picture of Jimmer in the paper and was disappointed to see that he was flaunting the rules (and the law) by wearing this stolen merchandise.



    However, just as I was about to cast that first stone, I paused, feeling the overwhelming discomfort of a massive beam in my own eye.

    I kept a pair of BYU issue and still have it. Shorts and t shirt.

    Do you also steal temple clothes? It all belongs to the Lord.

    Didn't you find it odd to wear clothes that other people have sweat in? I'd guess that that would be at the heart of why you kept your set.

      I kept a shirt, but then someone else stole it from me.

        I had the holy trifecta at one time.
        * Standard Issue BYU Physical Education -grey shirt with short blue poly-blend shorts.
        * Varsity Athlete Issue- Royal Blue shirt and shorts with old cougar paw in the U logo
        * Very rare, but always conversation starting MTC Physical Education Instructor-grey shirt with red lettering and red knee-length shorts.

          Actually, he was flouting the rules. But yes, I used to own a couple dozen pair of those no-elastic gym socks they used to give you. I didn't need them, but collecting them was something of a hobby.

            Wait! Aren't you worried about how this will affect your NTS?

              DDD was at the Y about the same time as me. It is a well known fact, the official BYU gear were/are NTS huggers. Not surprising to hear he still has a pair, is it?

                    I went to BYU long enough ago that they still had those shorts with the strange combination of being both too short and too baggy. I had no desire to keep a pair. They were almost as bad as the swimsuits, best described as "A Speedo for Two of You". The clinginess still haunts me.

                      I am also DDD's vintage and own a set. However I feel no guilt as I ended up paying for it.

                          After a few weeks, they charge you for it. So, I paid about $20 for mine

                            I still have my varsity issue (is that what it is called). More pleasing, though, are the BYU blue and white flame spandex that reside in my drawer. I used to love those hideous things n

                              Yes - you go to the locker in the RB and check out exercise clothing - shorts, t-shirt, socks, towel, you can even get a jock. Go to gym class, sweat in your clothes. Go back to the locker after class. Shower. Turn in the dirty clothing for a fresh set. Repeat daily.

                              Actually, it's great - if you have a gym class in the morning you don't have to carry your sweaty clothes in a gym bag around campus the rest of the day.
