After Saskachewan, who sells the most team merchandise?

[sambo42]

I would say Sask green sells the most, and then SK white second with the rest of league far behind...

I’ll second that…

The Jays also appeal across the board in terms of fashion. They benefit from merchandise that appeals to even non-sports fans. You’ll find 80s and 90s themed Jays apparel on hipsters and the more recent stuff in the hip-hop crowd.

Yeah funny how that works. Baseball is the least hip of any of the sports, yet it’s very fashionable to wear a baseball cap. You see it in every rap/ hip hop music video.

As Jay-Z said, he made the Yankee hat more famous than a yankee can.

He sure did. I see people wearing Yankee hats all the time, but I can’t remember the last time I saw anyone wearing a Yankee can.

As for the comment on the Bombers being next…well, in 2009, they actually LOST money on merch sales due to inventory management (ie, they have a pile of marketing into players that were no longer there). I believe the Bombers lost 1.2 million in 2009, including 138 000 in merch.

Proof?
.

There is a 2009 pdf presently available for d/l from their site. It presents a basic breakdown of finances for the season…from non-game day events (ie concerts), to consession sales, to game day ticket sales, to merchendise. The one thing I did not see was the travel costs, which would have been nice.

If you can not find it let me know and I will grab a link or something. I think it will only be up until Jan 6.

I always figured it'd be the Bombers that would be second in CFL merchandise, and than the Ticats seeing as both of those are the only professional teams in town besides the AHL. It would certainly be interesting to see reebok release the numbers.
