[B][SIZE=2]Name March 1st 2011 “Jorts Day” in Lexington[/SIZE][/B]
This is a petition for Lexington Mayor Jim Gray to officially name March 1st 2011 “Jorts Day” in the city of Lexington, Kentucky to honor Josh “Jorts” Harrellson’s final home basketball game as a University of Kentucky Wildcat.
The University of Kentucky campus has already taken steps to make March 1st a special day including encouraging everyone to wear denim on the 1st and local stores have even set up a count down sign outside of their shop that says “## until Jorts Day.” Now we are asking Mayor Gray to make the day official.
Harrellson is beloved throughout the city and across the commonwealth for his on-the-court play and his off-the-court character. The nickname was given by Kentucky Sports Radio when Harrellson made his recruiting visit to UK and wore a pair of jean shorts. From that moment on he was forever known as Jorts!
You don’t have to show your name on the petition after signing it. You don’t have to donate, just close the tab and your vote will still count.
