Uniform ad scam: football jersey ads

Tony Carter, Colfax High School teacher, Tuesday advised the Gazette that a Texas company may be scamming local businesses by selling advertising space for football jerseys.

Carter said he has received several phone calls from local business owners who said they were contacted by a Texas-based company, End Zone Athletics. They reportedly solicited advertising dollars to place businesses’ names on Bulldog football jerseys.

Carter said Colfax has no agreement with End Zone.

The Bulldogs do not place advertising messages on uniforms.

He advised locals to contact the school to verify a business venture before committing to any sponsorships.
