Tiger-Cats fans will have their first chance to see the team’s reengineered Reebok Premier Jerseys on Tuesday, May 1 at a special public event at Lime Ridge Mall.

The event will begin at 6:00pm inside the main entrance with Ticats receiver Andy Fantuz showing off the team’s new look.  Fantuz will sign autographs from 6:00-8:00pm with the Grey Cup also in attendance as the 100th Grey Cup in Toronto grows closer.  

Fans will also see how the Tiger-Cats uniforms have evolved through history with display cases showing nine historical uniforms on hand courtesy of the Canadian Football Hall of Fame.  In addition, fans can find out what they would look like in the new uniforms thanks to a unique photo exhibit on-site.  The historical uniforms and photo exhibit will remain on display at Lime Ridge from Tuesday until Monday, May 7.

The reengineered premier jerseys will be available for purchase, along with other Ticats, NHL and MLB merchandise at the Lime Ridge TigerTown Sports location.  The new premier jerseys can be found exclusively at TigerTown Sports stores (Lime Ridge Mall and 1 Jarvis Street) and the Ticats online store until Sunday, May 6.  

Fans are also encouraged to visit Ticats.ca, like the Tiger-Cats on Facebook and follow the Tiger-Cats on Twitter for exclusive coverage of the Black and Gold’s new look.
