it’s Hockey is For Everyone night for the Blue Jackets so I thought I’d post a tutorial for my pride jersey numbers!

How to make a pride hockey jersey!

You’re gonna need pride tape, wax paper, a pen, and scissors.

Start by tracing the number onto wax paper on the slippery side (I don’t have wax paper, so I have to substitute with tracing paper).

The tracing paper gave me some trouble coming off the back of the tape so I had to add a layer of heavy drawing paper. Wax paper is definitely the way to go.

Now I pull the pride tape out and cut each color into individual strips.

I like to have a bunch prepared so I can tape em all in one go.

Once you’ve cut the tape start layering it over the number on the side you drew it on. Make sure to overlap each layer so it’s all connected.

When everything’s taped down now you can cut out the shape using the back as the guide.

Then you can peel off the back like a sticker (which should be a lot easier on wax paper).

And then you can tape it all down and you’re done!!

time to manifest this

update: unfortunately, the game did not reach the mythical 6OT (it ended in the fourth, the sixth longest NHL game in history) but on the other hand, the panthers won and keep winning which means at least we get victory rats…

The story of the rats goes back to Oct. 8, 1995. Prior to a game against the Calgary Flames, a rat appeared in the Panthers’ locker room in the old Miami Arena. Former Panthers’ captain Scott Mellanby jumped up, grabbed a stick, and smacked the pesky rodent against a wall. Later that night, Mellanby scored two goals, leading then Panthers’ goalie John Vanbiesbrouck to quip, “He scored a rat trick”.

another update: the panthers are in the stanley cup finals. we’re four panthers wins away from seeing the stanley cup on ice surrounded by rats.
