Congratulations to Landon Baucom, who wins a free performance short sleeve shirt from DEKIN Sports. Landon submitted a pic of the now Orlando Thunder, of the former World Football League, in their hideous lime green jerseys.  It was a tough call between the Baucom’s submission and Chris Edwards’ Kentucky basketball shorts, but the the use of an extinct team was the decisive factor.

For the contestants, keep your heads up and your thinking caps on, because tonight marks the second night of Sports Trivia, where the first person to provide the correct answer will receive a pair of DEKIN athletic performance shorts.
