In their 2012 home opener, the Colorado Rockies got their ass kicked 7-0 by the San Francisco Giants — something that’s probably going to happen a lot this season. But the grim outlook didn’t stop Rockies fans from putting on their best gear and enjoying a glorious day for baseball.
Look below to count down our seven favorites (including one especially cheeky attendee) in photos by Javid Rezvani.
7. Darth Rocky
A classic look. If only it didn’t remind us of the Raiders….
6. Purple Pedal Power
Nice color-coordinating with your ride, dude.
5. Picture Perfect
Good thing it wasn’t windy….
4. Mardi Gras, Colorado-Style
Unfortunately, the Rockies’ defense was like those fishnets — lots of holes.

3. Shades of Victory
Good idea to look at the Rockies’ loss through purple-tinted glasses.
2. Manning Up
Attaway to pick a winner!

There’s a special bonus when you dress like this, kids — an escort home. Score!
