Maryland x Grateful Dead Lax Bear Friends Tee

Officially licensed by Grateful Dead and the University of Maryland. Available exclusively through Class Trip

The Grateful Dead performed at the University of Maryland's Cole Field House on March 7, 1981. This event coincided with the university's basketball team playing an away game versus UNC, leading to the venue being temporarily dubbed "Terrapin Station" in the band's honor. This event is commemorated in UMD's concert history, reflecting the band's cultural impact on the campus community. Additionally, the band's ethos of community and creativity aligns with UMD's initiatives, such as the Do Good Institute, which fosters social innovation and community engagement among students. While they only played on campus once in 1981, the Dead played dozens of shows right down the road in Landover, Columbia, and Baltimore. 

Maryland lacrosse is as iconic as it gets. With a legacy that stretches back over a century, the Terps have set the standard for excellence, fast, physical, and fiercely competitive. Their style is bold and unrelenting, like a Grateful Dead opener that grabs you from the first note and doesn’t let go. Rooted in tradition but always evolving, Maryland lacrosse is the kind of program that doesn’t just play the game...it defines it.
