BSU Gators? If you were browsing the racks for a Boise State ball cap at your local Wal-Mart, you might have noticed something a little… off. The retail giant had several different varieties for sale – including one Bronco hat that featured a Florida Gators logo. The mixed-up white hat features the famous blue and orange Bronco head on the front – but a blue, orange and green gator insignia on the bill. The back of the hat includes the Boise State trademark lettering/KTVB. More here .
