Homeless couture

I saw a homeless guy today wearing a university sweatshirt, and it prompted some questions.

(1) If he went to that university, how did he end up on the street? What circumstances landed him there?  I know that without family, there are a few times I would have been homeless because of my illness.  It is a sobering thought. Was he once a "player" who lost at the game?  I never assume that because someone is homeless that they are incapable of being anything else.

(2) If he didn't go to that school, did he choose that shirt on purpose?  Would he have worn the sweatshirt if it represented a rival for his favorite team?  How choosy would you be if it was the only thing you could find to wear?  Would you turn it inside out so the logo didn't show?

Come on, UNC fans,  Would you rather wear the Duke sweatshirt or freeze?  :)
