Celebrate Louisville's Iconic Softball Dynasty!
This vintage-inspired tee pays tribute to the legendary Kentucky Bourbons, one of the most successful and influential softball teams in history. Based in Louisville, the Bourbons captivated fans for decades with their unmatched talents and fiery competitive spirit.
The Kentucky Bourbons formed in 1943 as an industrial softball team sponsored by the Glenmore Distillery. But they soon blossomed into a dynasty, dominating national tournaments and capturing seven straight World Championships between 1967-1973. Their ferocious hitting attack and air-tight defense made them the team to beat.
Led by superstar pitcher Eddie Feigner and a roster loaded with future Hall of Famers like Stan Waldo and Larry Bapst, the Bourbons traveled the country barnstorming against both men's and women's teams. Their electrifying performances and showmanship drew massive crowds wherever they played.
The Bourbons were known for their iconic forest green and whiskey-colored uniforms with the distinctive barrel logo. Their intense pre-game whiskey shot ritual and brash personalities added to their mystique as softball's definitive heroes and villains.
Though they played their final game in 1995, the Kentucky Bourbons' impact and unparalleled excellence still resonates decades later. This retro tee featuring their classic barrel logo and colors lets you represent the aura and legacy of Louisville's legendary softball kings.
