Bobcats jerseys at Hornets games?

I was a Bobcats season ticket holder in 2010 when I lived in Charlotte.  I absolutely loved that team and have an authentic, autographed Tyson Chandler white Bobcats jersey.

I haven’t been to a Hornets game in a couple years... is it socially acceptable to wear Bobcats gear to a Hornets game?  Other teams do throwbacks, but I know the re-branding was a clean slate move.

Thoughts?

Heck yeah rock those out, those were some terrible seasons so you earned it.   Tyson was SO bad here though so it's funny lol.

It’s a really funny how I got the jersey, actually.

Me and some friends were bored one Saturday before that 2010 season, and we went to the team store to try and buy authentic jerseys because we were psyched about having season tickets and all that.

Of course, the Bobcats team store didn’t have anything like that for sale.  We were irritated but nobody stopped us when we walked up the steps from the store into the main concourse in TWC Arena.  

Once up there, we saw none other than MJ himself (and what appeared to be a large bodyguard of sorts) walking away from us.  My friend (who was a bit of an ass) yelled “Hey Jordan!” (I was extremely embarrassed)

”How come we can pay tons of money on season tickets but we can’t even buy real jerseys?”

Jordan didn’t say anything to us but he said a couple words to the bid dude.  The big dude walked up to my friend and told him to come with him.  Next thing I know, Robbie (the friend) comes around the corner and has 3 authentic, autographed jerseys.  Apparently the dude had them in a cardboard box and said “I better not see these on eBay.”

Still have mine after 8 years.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
