You just did.

Okay, you guys have reminded me that I did, in fact, wear at least a sport coat to the football games at my then-girlfriend's small private school. But while you did see them, particularly among fraternity members, at the games of the larger universities, they were definitely in the minority. Even at Sewanee, some men wear coats and ties today. 70 years ago, most men wore coats and ties.
