Two American legends, one unforgettable collection. Columbus wasn’t just another stop, it was the site of Dead lore in the making. On September 30, 1976, the Dead lit up Mershon Auditorium on campus, delivering an unforgettable set with “The Music Never Stopped” and “Sugaree” ringing through Buckeye country. But the real legend came earlier, on Halloween night in 1971, when the band tore through the Ohio Theatre downtown. That show, later immortalized as Dick’s Picks Volume 2, captured the Dead at their raw, high-flying best, opening with a thunderous “Dark Star,” sliding into “Sugar Magnolia,” and closing with a “Casey Jones” that shook the walls like the Horseshoe on game day. Like the Dead’s fearless jams, Ohio State thrives on energy that builds and bursts, whether it’s a last-second rally in the Shoe or a night that stretches past dawn on High Street. This venue tee bridges Buckeye pride with the Dead’s improvisational spirit, honoring moments where the music, the team, and the crowd all move as one on those epic nights.
This limited-edition drop features premium tees, hoodies, and accessories designed with bold graphics, vintage-inspired colors, and the unmistakable Grateful Dead iconography, reimagined for Buckeye fans. Whether you’re a lifelong Deadhead, a proud OSU alum, or simply love standout streetwear, this collection celebrates music, culture, and school pride in every stitch.
Gear up, show your Buckeye spirit, and keep the good vibes alive—because like a great jam, these pieces won’t last forever.
