The 2nd Super Bowl against Joe Montana and the 49ers. I saw that team giving them one heck of a game with those cool stripes on their helmets
while everyone around me was rooting for the 49ers. I was sad to watch our guys lose and became a fan of the underachieving Bengals from that
point on and suffered for a long time until recently.
I used to say that the inverted stripes weren't realistic and they are not, but like KillerGoose said, Lions aren't blue either, as long as they look cool
I am happy.
Speaking of the Lions, I think their new uniforms are awesome.
If we do a helmet without the stripes I’d much rather it be something like this with our Tiger.
