February 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

As anticipation builds for Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas, leading sports retailer Lids has unveiled insightful infographics based on recent sales data, offering intriguing insights into the NFL’s popularity during the 2023-24 season.

The infographics cover a range of categories, including the “Best Selling NFL Teams By State,” “Best Selling NFL Player Jerseys by State,” “Top 10 NFL Teams by Total Team Sales,” “Top 10 NFL Jerseys,” and “Top 10 NFL EmbroidiGraphs.” These visuals are derived from in-store net sales data across Lids locations throughout the season.

Key highlights from the data include Micah Parsons of the Dallas Cowboys emerging as the overall top-selling jersey. At the same time, Philadelphia Eagles’ quarterback Jalen Hurts dominates with the top-selling jersey in most states, totaling 13.

Despite limited playing time due to injury, Aaron Rodgers of the New York Jets secures a spot in the Top 10 in gear sales, illustrating his enduring popularity. The New York Giants also outpaced the Jets in sales within their home state.

Green Bay Packers’ fans strongly support Jordan Love, making him the top jersey purchase in Wisconsin, a shift from last year’s preference for rival Bears quarterback Justin Fields.

Other notable findings include the Philadelphia Eagles outselling the Pittsburgh Steelers in Pennsylvania and the Dallas Cowboys leading gear sales even in states with NFL franchises like North Carolina, home to the Carolina Panthers.

In California, the San Francisco 49ers dominate sales, while Christian McCaffrey of the Carolina Panthers outsells Justin Herbert of the Los Angeles Chargers in jersey sales.

The Miami Dolphins emerge victorious in Florida, outselling the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and showcasing the team’s strong fan base and merchandise appeal.

September 11, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Quavo says that he intends to enroll at the Univerity Of Georgia, next year. Speaking with Vibe about a collaboration he worked on with Lids and ’47 honoring the University of Georgia Bulldogs, the Migos rapper remarked that he wants to study at the school.

“I was just honored and I felt like it was a blessing because growing up I always rocked the Atlanta hat,” he said of the partnership. “When I was trying to rap, that was my favorite hat and that was like a staple. Kind of like how the New York Yankee hat is to New York. We love our Atlanta Braves hat.”

Of working with Lids, Quavo continued: “The relationship just got stronger and stronger. I created another hat when they went back-to-back and won another World Series, thank God. And then now we here with the college wave and UGA won back-to-back. So I guess it’s only right to call Qua at this point [laughs]. I’m just proud of myself for being a part of the family.”

“Next year, I’m going to enroll myself into University of Georgia. I’m going to be a student on campus,” he also revealed. “I want to see everybody at the University of Georgia have this hat. These hats are rare. This hat is a one-of-a-kind, and it’s done by me.” Quavo didn’t note what he intends to study at the school. He added: “I’m from Athens, you know what I’m saying? I love UGA to the fullest. I just want everybody to rep this hat and put it on their head, because we ain’t capping about our rap. We coming hard this year and we going three-peat.”

Chris Paul takes viewers back in time to tell the incredible tale behind the They Gave Us Game campaign, and how many sportsmen, including himself, would not be in the position they are in today if it weren’t for these leagues. Chris Paul shows off the collection’s wonderful products and how important each piece is for athletes around.

The “They Gave Us Game” collaboration between Lids and The Negro Leagues Museum, Black Fives, and Harlem Globetrotters debuted in February, with each property’s merchandise – including jerseys, caps, and shorts – available year-round in over 700 Lids locations around the country.

Original historic details previously worn by pioneering African American athletes from each of the three iconic sports institutions, including their uniforms and team logos, inspired products from each collection. The Lids Foundation will receive a share of all product profits from the collections. The Lids Foundation will make significant contributions to these communities in order to have a positive impact on youth sports.
