Vintage "Fight Cincinnati" White Tee
This cozy white tee features the first version of the Cincinnati Bearcat mascot, drawn by John "Paddy" Reece for the campus newspaper in 1914. At the time, "Bearcat" was just a nickname for UC football player, Teddy Baehr. Baehr was such a standout against Kentucky that the crowd began to chant, "Come on, Baehr-cat!" After the victory, the famous cartoon featured a UK wildcat being chased by the new creature dubbed the “Cincinnati Bear Cat.”
