44's

Syracuse tradition on Marshall Street for two decades, 44's Tavern was named to Sports Illustrated's five must-visit sports bars back during it's heyday in 1997. Students of the time referred to is as "Fours". But why was it called 44's, you ask? Well, the number has huge significance in S.U. football lore, with Orangemen greats Jim Brown, Ernie Davis, and Floyd Little among many to wear the fabled number on their jersey. The city even changed its phone prefix to 443 and ZIP code to 13244. In 2005, the university retired the number and the jersey now proudly hangs in the Carrier Dome. ***This is also available in our Patch Hat and Coffee Mug collections!
