WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Purdue Athletics is asking fans to wear the free T-shirts they will find on their seats at Mackey Arena for Tuesday's Big Ten showdown against Wisconsin, televised nationally on ESPN, tipping at 7 p.m. ET. Purdue is giving out almost 15,000 free T-shirts during Tuesday's game with a gold or black version to be placed on each seat.
The Boilermakers are ranked No. 5 in the country and lead the Big Ten with a 6-0 record and have won 13 straight games for a 17-2 overall record. With losses by West Virginia and Michigan State on Saturday, the Boilermakers are primed to rise in Monday's newest AP Top 25 rankings.
The annual T-shirt game has received national acclaim from many media outlets as it creates a stunning visual display for a national television audience - showcasing Mackey Arena as the top college basketball venue in America. Tuesday's game will be televised nationally by ESPN as part of its "Super Tuesday" platform, and will be the first game in over a month with The Paint Crew in attendance.
The object of the placement of each shirt is to create a drastic visual design around the facility that will be eye-catching during the national broadcast, and to showcase Purdue basketball and Mackey Arena.
Previously, the annual T-shirt game has been held against Ohio State (twice), Wisconsin, Boston College and North Carolina State.
About 500 tickets remain for Tuesday's battle with the Badgers. Call 800.49.SPORT or visit PurdueSports.com for ticket information.
