Winnepeg Jets T-shirt made by company licensed to sell NHL stock shocker for fan
KELOWNA, B.C. — A lifelong Winnipeg Jets fan was shocked to learn she’d bought a team T-shirt with the city’s name misspelled as Winnepeg.
Heather Prevalnig, 33, said she paid $30 for the T-shirt at a Winnipeg airport store on her way home to Kelowna, B.C.
Her brother had been teasing her for days about her loyalties to her childhood hometown team.
“He was bugging me all weekend: ‘Are you a Jets fan, are you a (Vancouver) Canucks fan?’ I’m like, No, I’m a Jets fan, born and raised,” she said.
