Official Jerseys: Looking the Part
Michael Jordan Still Has the Top Jersey in Search
Sports fans are always looking for ways to support their favorite players and teams. One method, albeit an expensive one, is to throw down some cash for an official jersey.
Jerseys are perpetually popular in the Buzz, and this past week was no exception. There were significant searches on all the usual suspects, including "nba jerseys," "nba throwback jerseys," "mlb jerseys," and "nhl jerseys." Manchester United and the Boston Celtics were the most popular teams, while lookups on jerseys for the defunct USFL also made a strong showing.
When it comes to individual athletes, we were a bit surprised to see a retired guy top the list. That's right, kids—Michael Jordan's #23 is still the most popular jersey in the land. The uniform once worn by his royal airness draws more buzz than LeBron's, Shaq's, and Ronaldo's combined.
But even though Jordan dominates the Search box just like he did the court, his isn't the only coveted jersey. Below, we rank the players whose duds are drawing the most buzz. Dress to impress.
