my unpopular jersey

As I drove this morning in traffic, something made me remember an unpopular jersey I used to wear in high-school. Unpopular for reasons I could not fathom.

The jersey was in fact a maroon Izod Lacoste cardigan. It had belonged to my great-grandmother; though it was a mens cardigan (she was a bigger than average individual). My friends hated this jersey, I don't know if it was because it had no shape on me, or because of the over-sized buttons or because of it's colour. Perhaps they were jealous of my almost original jersey... I still wonder.

My grandmother still has that jersey in my wardrobe. I'm willing to sell it to those who are willing to make an offer for it. The unpopularity will follow :)

I'd buy a real antique jersey but I'd have to see the pic first. Is it stylish? It's antique, you shouldn't get rid of it!

Maroon?! Over-sized buttons?! *sigh
I will give you R6 for it.I know someone who will love that kind of look. And Im sure they will pay alot more money for it. So let me take it off your hands.It's for a good cause.

Unpopularity will follow? I guess thats alright,we cant have it all right?!!
