This event translates into three hours of pure joy for these kids, as they have no idea what to expect until the moment they walk in the gymnasium. Personally, the smiles on their faces do more for me and all of us there than any pair of shoes will ever do for them. As happy as these kids are, we as a company leave the school even happier. The holidays are about giving, especially to those who are less fortunate. The only thing better than giving back, is giving back as a group. When you can share it with hundreds of your co-workers it just lifts your spirits. For me, it is the start of my holiday season and reminds me of how blessed I really am. I would like to thank all the volunteers from LIDS and Genesco for the hard work and dedication put into making this event what it is. And most importantly, I would like to send a huge thank you to all the children who make the holidays truly special.
LIDS' Seventh Annual Cold Feet, Warm Shoes & Hats event in Indianapolis, Indiana, was a huge success thanks to the 100 LIDS/Genesco Inc. corporate volunteers in attendance. On Tuesday, December 6, nearly 300 children from Francis W. Parker Elementary School, IPS #56, were provided with a new pair of shoes, a new knit hat, a Converse t-shirt, and a pair of Crocs as LIDS' volunteers set up a mock shoe and hat store in the school's gym.
In addition, the children were greated by Colts Linebacker Gary Brackett. "I look forward to partnering with LIDS again this year for their ‘Cold Feet, Warm Shoes and Hats’ event. The event is always one of my favorites," said Brackett. "When you leave, there is always a smile on every kid’s face and that moment is PRICELESS!" Brackett was also joined by his fellow teammates, Pat Angerer, Kavell Conner, and Scott Lutrus.
Through its Cold Feet, Warm Shoes & Hats program, LIDS and its parent company, Genesco Inc., are able to annually provide disadvantaged children in Indianapolis, the site of LIDS' headquarters, with the power of choice, the same respect and service that they would receive at any of Genesco's 2,300 retail stores, and the practical solution of properly fitting footwear and warm hats. Each year, the Company works with the United Way of Central Indiana and the Indianapolis Colts to host this signature event at a different Indianapolis Public School location in need.
NOTE: This year's Cold Feet, Warm Shoes & Hats event was made possible in part by the generosity of the following Genesco vendors: Crocs, DC Shoes, Puma, Sock and Accessory brands, Concept One, Top of the World, Levi's, Uni Hosiery, Bioworld and Huffman.

In 1970, when I was five years old, my dad took me to my first St. Louis Cardinals game. In those days Lou Brock and Bob Gibson were in their prime, coming off of three World Series appearances in six years and winning two (very reminiscent of what just took place these last six years). I was hooked. Little did I know though at that young age it would take my beloved Redbirds 12 long years to get back to the World Series.
For their next appearance, I was a junior in high school and was actually able to celebrate a World Series win. I’ll never forget it. The Cardinals then went on to play in the World Series in ‘85 and ‘87, however the team failed to clinch the championship both times and suffered painful loses in Game 7 of each. Again, little did I know it would be 17 more years until the Cardinals were in another World Series (2004). This time I was 38 years old, married with four children; a stark contrast to being 22 and fresh out of college in ‘87. The great thing about ’04 was that I had the opportunity to take my dad and return the favor from 34 years earlier, when he passed his love for the Cardinals on to me.
Now I fast forward to what just happened this season. For Cardinals fans alike it’s already been documented how crazy a month it was, from being virtually out of contention with mere weeks left in the season to winning their 11th World Series in franchise history. This latest victory put the team in the top spot for most championships in the National League, and second in the sport overall just behind only the New York Yankees.
Moments like these are so unpredictable, yet I tried to take advantage of every opportunity to share this experience with my family. This year my wife and I took our 4 kids to multiple playoff and World Series games in St. Louis, and even had the opportunity to make it to Milwaukee and Texas for games. Hopefully years from now our kids will understand how special this October was, and they will feel the same nostalgia that I did in 1970 when my dad took me to my first game. And so the Campbell-Cardinals tradition continues…

A few weeks ago, I boarded a plane to Tampa for a business trip to visit some stores in the area. While traveling is common in my line of work, on this particular flight I was seated next to a man who was enlisted in our armed services. As the plane took off, we had a conversation that I will never forget and always be grateful for.
The man, Sgt. Matt Reddon, was headed back to Kurdistan, dubbed the “other Iraq.” He had been in the Air Force for 30 years, and during his service had been deployed to areas like Kurdistan over a dozen times. While he seemed eager to get there, I couldn’t help but think this was not an ideal location for him. During our conversation, I also learned that his brother had just joined the military. It was clear the sergeant was proud of him. But on the subject of family, his voice grew softer as he expressed the hardest part of it all was leaving his wife and kids behind for extended periods of time. I can only imagine how difficult that must be. On this particular trip, he had a day’s worth of flying just to get to Kurdistan. Who knows when he would return to his family.
After listening to a few of the stories he told, I thanked him for his service to our country. That was the least I could do. But what stuck with me the most was his response. In that moment he said to me, “You don’t have to thank me; I do what I do, because I love my job.” We parted ways, each headed to our own destinations as we both put on our headphones to drown out the noise of the busy airport. However, I couldn’t help but replay his words in my head – he loves his job. WOW! Now if he and the countless other men and women in the armed forces that risk their lives to protect our freedom feel that way about their jobs, how can I ever begin to complain about mine? I thank you, Sgt. Reddon, for reminding me of the many blessings I have in my life, including my job. God bless and stay safe.

Have a question for Glenn? You can follow him on Twitter or post your question on the LIDS Facebook wall. Stay tuned for Glenn's next blog post on his thoughts about the World Series games against the St. Louis Cardinals and Texas Rangers.
College football is in the midst of another season, which begs the eternal question- Are there really Tigers in Louisiana? Or Missouri? Or Alabama? What exactly is an Aggie, anyway? And what’s the deal with the Horned Frogs? What’s the story behind all these college nicknames anyway? Let’s take a look at the history behind these school nicknames of some of the top teams this year, Twitter-style (140 characters or less). Don’t forget, you can find hats, apparel and accessories for all these NCAA teams and more at Lids.com.
Alabama Crimson Tide - After the Iron Bowl against Auburn, the O-Line's unis were stained red with mud a writer coined the nickname
Arkansas Razorback - Coach Bezdek likened them to "a wild band of Razorback hogs" after a win over LSU in 1909; students voted for the name
Baylor Bears - A student vote in 1914 elected "Bears" as the official mascot, with the first live bear appearing at games in the 1920's
Florida State Seminoles - To honor the Native American Tribe and Chief Osceola, who resided in Florida
LSU Tigers - From the Confederate heritage, after two NOLA brigades - the Tiger Rifles and the Washington Artillery (had a tiger logo)
Michigan State Spartans - A 1925 vote had "Staters" winning but a local sports editor went with Spartans and used that in headlines instead
Nebraska Cornhuskers - Popularized by sportswriters in 1900; beat out previous names - Bugeaters, Tree Planters, Rattlesnake Boys
Ohio State Buckeyes - After the state tree prevalent in Ohio (the tree's nut looks like a deer's eye)
Oklahoma Sooners - From the first settlers of the OK territory who entered (sometimes illegally) before the official claiming period in 1889
Oklahoma State Cowboys - Originally Aggies, a popular cowboy caricature was used for the mascot in 1924 and they took on the new name
Oregon Ducks - Originally "Webfoots" after the first fisherman settlers, writers changed it after "Puddles" (a real duck) attended games
TCU Horned Frogs - The horned frog is actually a lizard, and refers the Texas horned lizard commonly found in the area
Texas A&M Aggies - Shortened from "Agricultural", as in Texas Agricultural & Mechanical College
Texas Longhorns - After the steer with long horns that are prominent at Texas ranches
Virginia Tech Hokies - Completely made up! Used as an attention grabber for the "Old Hokie" cheer, now means a loyal VT fan
Wisconsin Badgers - After the 1800's lead miners who lived in tunnels to survive the winter, much like the burrowing animal

If you have been following the MLB playoffs at all in the last few weeks or watch any of the sports networks, you have no doubt heard about the St. Louis Squirrel. The infamous rodent now dubbed “The Rally Squirrel” by the St. Louis faithful has appeared in both of the Cardinals’ home playoff games. Well I have firsthand knowledge of this legend as he and I had a close encounter in Game 3 on October 4 in St. Louis.
I am a St. Louis Cardinals baseball “nut” you could say. I am certain that is what attracted the Rally Squirrel to me in the first place. I have been a season ticket holder for the past 13 years and have been a Redbirds fan dating back to my childhood in the 1970s.
This 2011 season has been crazy for so many reasons. I try not to miss any Cardinals playoff games, home or away, but I made the mistake of booking some work-related business trips for early October back when the Cards were 10 ½ games out with a month to play. Oh boy, has my travel schedule been turned upside down! That is the last time I ever write-off my beloved Cardinals before they are mathematically eliminated. They overcame one of the largest deficits in history to make the playoffs on the last day of the season.
In an unbelievable five-game series, capped by one of the best pitching performances I have ever seen by Chris Carpenter, the Cardinals eliminated the Phillies in the divisional round of the playoffs. My Cards are currently tied at one game apiece with the Brewers in the NLCS. I am convinced none of this would be possible without the “Rally Squirrel.”
I was sitting in my front row seats just down the third baseline past the dugout with three buddies for Game 3 of the NLDS. The Cardinals were down 3-0, Philly clearly had the momentum, and we needed a spark. With two outs in the bottom of the sixth inning, play was stopped as our hero came on the field. The squirrel ran from right field all the way to second base then stopped and looked around. I assume he peaked at the scoreboard and saw his team trailing. He continued in my direction and stopped as if he was telling third base coach Jose Oquendo something and then came bounding right over to me.
If you were watching that portion of the national television broadcast like my wife and kids where, you saw one of my buddies reach over the wall and point at our little furry mascot. Then you saw yours truly – donning a red Cardinals hat with my sunglasses atop the visor – reach over and try to grab him. “What would you have done if you caught that squirrel?” I have been asked countless times over the past week. As I’ve told everyone, I was caught up in the moment and all I can remember thinking in that instant was, “Getting that squirrel would surely get me on ESPN SportsCenter’s Top Ten plays of the day.” Truth is, I just wanted to thank that squirrel for showing up and changing the mojo.
My Cards lost 3-2 that night but it wasn’t the squirrel’s fault. We stranded 14 base runners, nine after our furry friend came onto the field. Down two games to one, he came back during Game 4 on October 5 and darted across home plate while Skip Shumaker was batting. That squirrel clearly got inside Phillies pitcher Roy Oswalt’s head and the Cardinals went on to win 5-3 and tie the series at two games apiece. Then, just when you thought the Cardinals didn’t stand a chance heading back to Philly to face their ace pitcher Doc Halliday in Game 5, Rally Squirrel magically showed up again on the field in Philadelphia before the game. The rest, as the cliché goes, is history. Cardinals pitcher Chris Carpenter pitched the best game of his career, the Redbirds won, and are now in line to win their 11th World Series in franchise history.
Everyone has opinions about superstitions and curses, and baseball has its fair share of animal-related lore. Ask Chicago Cubs fans about the Billy Goat of 1945 and the black cat of 1969. I am confident the Cardinals’ “Rally Squirrel” of 2011 can change history for St. Louis in a good way. When I sit in my seats October 12 for Game 3 of the NLCS, I’ll have a new shirt on that gives a big shout out to my furry friend. The shirt will be available in LIDS, LIDS Locker Room and the Cardinals Clubhouse stores operated by LIDS in the St. Louis area. Don’t be surprised to see that squirrel on the field. My first purchase at the ball park that night will be a cold beverage and a big bag of peanuts. Big enough to share if my friend happens to come by and visit again.

NFL Films and Gatorade are collaborating on a new web series called “Everything to Prove,” which recently kicked off on NFL.com. The series provides an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at how 14 elite NFL rookies are making the leap from college to the pros.
On July 26, NFL Films shadowed inspirational Boston College linebacker Herzlich into the LIDS store in King of Prussia (Pa.) Mall the day he was signed as a New York Giants undrafted free agent. Herzlich purchased four Giants hats.
After earning first-team All-American and ACC Defensive Player of the Year honors as a junior for the Eagles in 2008, Herzlich was diagnosed with Ewing’s sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer, and missed the entire 2009 season. During 2009, Herzlich earned numerous honors for his courage and outreach, including the Disney Spirit Award, Nils V. "Swede" Nelson Award, an honorary Lott Trophy, and the ACC Commissioner’s Cup. Herzlich was cancer free less than six months after his initial diagnosis and returned to the football field in 2010 where he won the Rudy Award and the ACC’s Brian Piccolo Award after starting all 13 games.
Highlights of the NFL Films webisode series include documenting the many challenges faced by pro prospects; going behind the scenes at Senior Bowl; the Combine; Draft Day; moving to a new city; and the countless workouts, worries and weight room sessions in between. You can follow the series on NFL.com, Facebook and YouTube.

Below is a blog posted on July 26, 2011 by TRU, a youth research company that focuses on tweens, teens and twenty-somethings. Millennials are loosely defined as individuals born somewhere between the mid-1970s to mid-1990s, with some sources including as late as the early 2000’s.
___________________________________________________________________________________________
Phew, that was close!
For a (long) while it looked like the NFL labor impasse would taint the 2011 season and force Millennials to, at least temporarily, find something else to do on Sundays. Would Millennials even care? You bet they would. Ever since Michael Jordan retired from the NBA (for the second, not the third time), the NFL has remained, bar none, young people’s favorite sports league.
With the NFL deal in the rear-view mirror now, it’s not inconceivable that, come late October, Millennials’ two favorite active sports leagues will be the NFL and their collegiate counterpart. With a just-completed World Series and a potentially unresolved NBA lockout, NCAA Football will play Robin to the NFL’s Batman, with the immensely popular videogame companions creating a seemingly impregnable Justice League of Football. Holy Madden!
Not long ago, TRU coined the theme Authenticitude™ to explain Millennials’ insatiable need for items or actions that mimic the “real thing.” Exhibit A is videogames, increasingly suitable surrogates for doing the amazing (e.g., shredding on guitar), illegal (e.g., killing strangers) or, of course, highly improbable (e.g., turning a Peyton Manning button-hook into a pick-six).
After using the internet and watching TV, Millennials spend more time playing console videogames than any other form of media, ahead of listening to MP3s, using social networking sites, and listening to the radio. In fact, among teens, playing videogames is one of the only media activities where usage time has increased every year since 2007. (The same can’t be said for using the internet and watching TV). Furthermore, among Millennial guys, sports games represent the third most popular genre (after first-person shooters and action/adventure games), and “Madden NFL 11” was the second best-selling videogame last year (after “Call of Duty: Black Ops”), with the next installment due in stores next month.
Because no NFL games were sacrificed during the impasse, Millennials will mandate no period of forgive-and-forget, or what TRU likes to call Re-Generation™. In fact, force-fitting free agency, training camp, a potential supplemental draft, fantasy-football forecasting, and the release of “Madden NFL 12” into a one-month period may whet young people’s appetite even more than usual. If there’s one thing Millennials have demonstrated, it’s that when it comes to stimuli, too much is never enough.
We have all heard the saying, “There is no such thing as a bad idea …” Well, we can promise you there are no bad ideas here at LIDS…literally! LIDS is bringing you select styles from No Bad Ideas Clothing Company, the specialist for the Counter-Culture; and, with No Bad Ideas, you can never go wrong!
These hats strive to fall in line with the hottest fashion trends on the street. Not only do these products use the most stylish fabrics and the best silhouettes, but as an added bonus ALL of their designs include a concealed stash pocket for that little extra edge!

What would you have done if you caught Derek Jeter's home-run, 3,000th hit?
Well, Christian Lopez a cellphone salesman from Highland Mills, N.Y., who was seated in Section 236, Row 1, Seat 19, found himself in that situation. The 23-year-old scooped up New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter's 3,000th hit on Saturday, July 9, 2011. Instead of auctioning off the piece of Major League Baseball history , Lopez stated he was just going to hand it over to one of his baseball heroes. Even more astonishing was the fact that Lopez asked for nothing in return for the estimated $250,000 ball; however, the Yankees Organization didn't just take the ball away without any compensation to Lopez. Sources reveal they rewarded Lopez's generosity with a pretty nice package including almost $70,000 worth of Yankees memorabilia and tickets.
Now that Derek Jeter's bid for one of baseball's most sacred milestones, the 3,000-hit club, is complete, LIDS is pulling out all the stops to commemorate this landmark event in Jeter's career with the Authentic MLB New Era® 59FIFTY®. Now, you can help honor one of the game's biggest stars and the first New York Yankee to reach this milestone. We can't offer you the actual 3,000th hit ball, but the Authentic MLB New Era 59FIFTY can help you remember this highlight event.
The LTD Series VENOM is a 2-tone New Era® 59FIFTY®. The cap features a black ballistic nylon crown with a faux snake print nylon visor. The cap also features your favorite team logo, with raised embroidery, on the front panel, contrasting MLB Logoman on the back, and contrasting New Era® Flag on the left wear side. The LTD Series VENOM is the 1st launch of the new limited edition LTD Series by LIDS. Click here to check out what teams are available in this style.
So, you may be asking yourself, what is the LTD Series?

In the wake of a professional baseball career that spanned from 1963-1989, Pete Rose sits atop the Major League Baseball record book for hits (4,256), games played (3,562), and at-bats (14,053). He won three World Series rings, three batting titles, a MVP, two Gold Gloves, was Rookie of the Year and made 17 All-Star appearances at an unequaled five different positions (2B, LF, RF, 3B and 1B).
As one of the pro game’s best, I wondered if “Charlie Hustle” had been among college baseball’s best and perhaps had played in the College World Series. I was surprised to learn during Rose’s appearance at the 2011 College World Series it was his first-ever trip to Omaha, home of CWS since 1950.
LIDS, conversely, is no stranger to “The Greatest Show on Dirt” having operated trailers and temporary stores at CWS every year for more than a decade. On June 20, 2011, LIDS joined forces with Omaha Baseball Village, located just outside TD Ameritrade Park—the brand new home of CWS—to host Rose for an autograph signing. Rose led off the appearance with a radio interview on Omaha’s ESPN Radio affiliate 1620AM The Zone. (Click here* to view and listen to the interview.)
Adding to the excitement for the hundreds of fans that came out to meet The Hit King was a surprise appearance at the signing by fellow Cincinnati star athlete Bengals WR Chad Ocho Cinco who posted a fun picture later that day on his Twitter.
On behalf of the LIDS family, a huge thanks to Pete for being so generous of your time with LIDS and the fans!
