Louisville x Grateful Dead Basketball Bears Tee

Officially licensed by the Grateful Dead and University of Louisville.

Freedom Hall has been home to plenty of legendary moments, but on April 2, 1978, it wasn’t basketball bringing the crowd—it was the Grateful Dead. While not technically on the University of Louisville’s campus, the venue was close enough for plenty of Cards to make their way inside, trading layups for long jams and fast breaks for free-flowing grooves. UofL students, always up for something a little different, embraced the Dead’s anything-goes energy, turning the arena into a swirling sea of tie-dye and twirling dancers. The band came back on December 7, 1981, proving Louisville had a place on the Dead’s map. Freedom Hall may not have been a true campus venue, but for those nights, it sure felt like one—just with a little less school spirit and a lot more improvisation.

Meet your new favorite tee. Soft, lightweight, and with just the right amount of stretch, this unisex staple is as comfy as it gets. Whether you’re tailgating, at the show, or or just kicking back after a long, strange trip. A true crowd favorite, it’ll be the MVP of your wardrobe.
