Per a release from Adidas, one lucky high school in Louisiana will also get to wear SCLSU jerseys for an upcoming game:
As an additional nod to the 20th anniversary, adidas will bring the classic movie back to its roots and present authentic adidas SCLSU and ‘The Waterboy’ 20th anniversary uniforms to University Lab High School (ULAB) football team in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. To complete the head-to-toe look from the movie, adidas partnered with Riddell to blend the past with the present by combining the state-of-the-art head protection in the new Riddell Speed and SpeedFlex helmets with the classic look of the Mud Dogs logo, premium decal striping and a high gloss finish. The best-in-state ULAB football team will go from Cubs to Dogs for a cultural crossover moment that will celebrate the movie’s milestone for their game against Mentorship Academy on October 19.
The gear goes on sale to the public on Oct. 19.
