The Tommy J’s | American Flag Suit Pants

Why’d we name these red and white striped American Flag suit pants the Tommy J’s? Well, one night a few years back we were sitting at Topper’s Bar and Grill in Greencastle, Indiana, when ole Thomas Jefferson himself (or the ghost of…who can really say, it was a Wednesday and I usually head to Topper’s for my first one around 2 pm on Wednesdays) stumbles in. He sees me wearing these pants and matching blazer and marches right up to my barstool, stares deep into the pit of my soul for an uncomfortably long 3.5 seconds, spits his tobacco juice on the floor at my feet, chuckles, buys a round of brandy, shoots it with me, leans up to my ear and says “game recognize game,” walks off, never saw him again. Crazy night.
