More like a don't give a shatter. The city is lucky to have the griz. They give so much to the community. In about 30 years the city will have broken even after giving them a $250 million arena.
Besides, I can't follow a sport where I don't understand the rules and I think is rigged.
and the Memphis Tigers get to play home games in that arena also ..correct?
And the city is facing a severe financial crisis.
And the Grizz are responsible for the economy tanking and tax revenues being down? What's next, Grizzlies caused global warming?
What is more real? Global warming or NBA "basketball"?
I just watched the NBA last night. Seemed pretty real to me. Global warming can be disputed, Grizzlies basketball cannot!

RE: Buying Grizz Apparel
Wow, nearly 20 posts and absolutely no one answer the OP's question. I was curious myself, as I rarely see Grizz gear around the city. I've been told you can find gear in Foot Locker type stores but I have not been in one of those places in years.

Thanks for bringing this back on topic.....
stopped by Dick's yesterday....had 1 Rudy Gay jersey....that's it.
Even went by WalMart and Schnucks, nothing.
I've heard College Station has some Grizz stuff though.

The city did not give the grizz the arena. It's still owned by the city.
The Grizz operate the arena and so far have paid all bond payments on time. The City has not lost a dime on it's investment and the taxpayers did not pay to build the arena. It was built on bonds that were purchased by willing participants.
FedExForum has generated revenue for the city government.
FedExForum, so far, is a municipal success. Go take your whine somewhere else.

RE: Buying Grizz Apparel
Nothing at College Station.....apparently there are out of stock....but should be getting some in.
Anywhere else? Think I might stop by the mall and see what they have.

They have (perhaps had) about two racks at Dicks Sporting Goods on Winchester. I believe it was 2011 Playoffs t-shirt, a Tony Allen t-shirt that had his number and name on the back, some OJ Mayo and Z-Bo jerseys, a few styles of polo, and some youth/kids stuff. It was going fast but they were putting more out (this was on Sunday).

They had a shipment of Grizz shirts come in last Friday. Don't know their current stock levels but you can call them at the number on the link.
Don't hate!

I went by a place called Wilk's Dugout in Wolfchase Galleria the Thursday before game 3 of the Spurs series and they had something like 6 different types of Grizzlies t-shirts. They had more Lakers and Heat stuff than Grizzlies stuff, though.

RE: Buying Grizz Apparel
I live on the west coast and looked everywhere for any type of Grizz apparel, but of course all the store employees just laughed at me. One store said they recently carried a Vancouver Grizzlies hat, but they did not have it in stock.
I'm surprised Grizz gear is so hard to find in Memphis, though. I would have figured you could just walk into any store and they'd have a display right there at the entrance.
Ah well, as this bandwagon picks up some more steam we'll start seeing the new fans come out of the woodwork... which is totally fine by me.
