This year's intramural week was filled with
new activities and surprises, one of which was the 70's inspired basketball
uniform of the Artscomm Bullets men.
Each
of the member wore a white tank top, tucked in a green short with a length just
above the knee, paired with shin-high socks. Some of them wore headbands to
capture the whole look.
According
to Gerald Pongase, an alumnus and the team's coach, they were inspired with the
old-school look and decided to pursue the idea during this year's intramural. “Kang
Gelo ug Wyndelle jud to na idea, last year pa to gi-plano pero
wala nalahos kay wala nangabot ang jerseys (It was actually Gelo and
Wyndelle's idea, it was last year's plan but the jerseys didn't arrive on time),”
Pongase said.

Remonde, who helped pushed through with the idea, said that it was already
difficult for them to win the games since their line up was incomplete, so they
might as well wear something unusual to make the games more fun.
“Ganahan mi nga funny
and unusual ang theme sa among team, ug para malingaw mi as
well as ang mutan-aw (We wanted a funny and unusual theme for our team, and
also it would be fun for us, as well as the spectators),” Remonde added.

Degamo from the Management Tycoons commented, “it was classic and creative.
Probably placed them in the spotlight during the game.” Nicole Sevilla from the
Socsci Stallions shared the same sentiments. “They brought the fun in the
court, lingaw jud sila, grabe sila ug ideas (they were fun, they have
such great ideas),” Sevilla added.
The
team's preparations included browsing through the internet regarding the look
of the uniform, and going to Carbon to buy the jerseys. It was the members'
effort to hand-print the team's name and respective numbers to the jerseys.
The
70's inspired-look was complete with
sound effects played during their games courtesy of the team. The Bullets
finished third in the basketball games.
