I seem to recall merchandise sold outside the park throughout the ‘90s into maybe the early 2000s that featured a modified version of the ‘80s batterman holding a machine gun instead of his usual bat, a sort of literal “Southside Hitman.” Am I crazy? Does anyone own something with this logo on it?

Sounds like something that shirt maker outside wrigley would have. What was it, uncommon shirts or something like that

Fedora/ trenchcoat/ possible cigar (?) / hitman is what I seem to recall, not 100% sure but something like that.

This logo was sold during the 1977 Season. i still have the bumper sticker and pennant with that logo It says South Side Hit Men, Chicago White Sox. These items were sold outside the park.

It sure does. Reminds me of the Fukudome shirt. Horry Kow.

Unfortunately, this is not the logo I’m thinking of. The one I’m picturing is literally a tweak of the ‘80s batterman logo holding a Tommy gun/machine gun instead of a bat and possibly wearing a fedora. Think the “Southside Samurai” merch you see outside the park nowadays.
