SELFIES ARE UBIQUITOUS. There’s no escaping them.
Riding along in the the Tour de France? Expect to crash into some fan trying to take a selfie.
You’ve just won the biggest athletics event of your life? Hoards of teenagers will be there to greet you with the back of their heads and their camera phones.
There’s no fighting it, selfies are a part of modern sport and so one minor league ice hockey team in the United States has decided if you can’t beat them, join them, and asked fans to submit a selfie which will be printed on their new jerseys.
Apparently it’s not the first time this gimmick has been tried but it’s the first we’ve heard of it.
The only rules seem to be that the selfie must be taken by September 15 and the jersey will be worn on ‘Snap a Selfie Night’ on November 28.
What do you think though, can you imagine Dublin strolling around Croke Park with your face on their jersey?
