Team colors go on one or two pieces<\/strong>, not seven.<\/p>\n\n\n\nLet accessories do the theming<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nA cap, scrunchie, bandana, or pair of socks in team colors communicates plenty.

Pick your loudest piece first<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nJersey, varsity jacket, or graphic tee \u2014 choose one, then build quiet pieces around it. Two loud pieces fight each other and you lose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pick two or three, rotate the variations, and let everyone assume you have a system. You kind of do now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now go \u2014 your team needs you, and so does the snack table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
