K-Pop Group STAYC Unintentionally Wears Glasgow Rangers Jerseys Instead of Texas Rangers at Dallas Concert

STAYC's wardrobe mix-up in Dallas elicits reactions from fans and increases online searches for Texas Rangers jerseys, despite the team's World Series performance likely also contributing to the rise.

  • K-Pop group STAYC unintentionally wore vintage Glasgow Rangers jerseys instead of Texas Rangers jerseys at a concert in Dallas, Texas during their 'Teenfresh' world tour.
  • The misstep led to an online increase in searches for Texas Rangers jerseys, with a surge of 1,328% reported by Betway, a sports betting site, irrespective of the Texas Ranger's performance in the World Series.
  • While some fans joked about 'unstanning' the band over the mix-up on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), others seemed amused by the incident, expressing approval and even considering becoming Rangers fans.
  • The group usually wears sports jerseys that represent the town they’re performing in. For instance, they wore Mariners jerseys in Seattle and had accurately sported gear of the local sports teams in previous US tour stops like Brooklyn and Chicago.
  • Earlier instances of similar incidents in the K-pop industry were noted, such as members of the band Stray Kids wearing retro Celtic jerseys in a music video for their song 'My Pace' in 2018.
