Underground Printing Produces A.F.C. Championship Apparel

Jan. 19, 2009 - PRLog -- Ann Arbor, MI – It is Superbowl time for the Pittsburgh Steelers again, as they defeated the Baltimore Ravens 23-14 in Sunday’s AFC Championship game, their second birth in the title game in the last four seasons. For Underground Printing, that means its Steelers Superbowl shirts time, again, as well.

Reebok has contracted Underground Printing again this year for their hot market NFL apparel for the AFC and the Pittsburgh Steelers. 16,400 prints will be run of the Superbowl design, distributed later today to JC Penny’s around the country. UGP has been one of a handful of printers Reebok uses for its hot market apparel following major sporting events, including the NBA finals since 2003, the last three Superbowls, and last year’s Stanley Cup Finals.

In 2006, UGP printed Steelers Superbowl apparel as well, but this time around it has some added meaning to the company. In the fall of 2008, the company opened a store location in Pittsburgh on Pitt’s campus. UGP co-owner Ryan Gregg is thrilled to be a part of the action again. “It is especially exciting to be a part of this Steelers win since we opened a store in down town Pittsburgh at the corner of Meyran and Forbes.  There’s nothing like getting to be a part of the home town win!,”

Underground Printing will likely be involved in printing Superbowl Championship shirts as well, should the Steelers prevail against the Arizona Cardinals on February 1st, 2009 in Tampa.
