Florida Beer League Hockey Team, With A Hilarious Sponsor, Goes Viral For The Names On Their Jerseys

Beer league sports are definitely one of adult life’s greatest things. As someone who frequently plays on a kickball team, it’s the perfect low-cost weekday activity that keeps you active and lets you live out your dreams of playing on a “serious” sports team.

While a beer league is always a fun way to spend your free time, the registration fees can sometimes be hefty. These registration fees might lead some participants to not play in the leagues, thus missing out on a season of fun and tispy games. However, one Florida hockey league found a solution to cover these fees while supporting its community.

A Tampa league went into the community to find a business to sponsor their team. Some teams might get a team member’s business, a local insurance agency, or a family-owned restaurant to sponsor their team. Bar of course are a popular option as well. However, this group of men found a different kind of business to sponsor their team: a local gentleman’s club.

Yes, folks, you read that right… they sponsored a league of grown men playing hockey. But that’s not even the best part. It’s fairly common for these kind of establishments to sponsor beer league teams (have to imagine the boys head over after the games). But the best part is that the men all have the names of dancers at the club on the back of their jerseys in lieu of their last names. Or at least, the most stereotypical names that one might have in that line of work. That deserves a HELL YEAH.

The video instantly took off, and deservedly so, gaining over 1 million likes and over 4.5 million views in 48 hours. The fact that this team is based in Florida makes it even better. Just SO Florida…
