Ongoing Alternate Identities
Thunder Pork Roll
Debut: May 18th, 2018 | When they take the field: Fridays
New Jersey’s iconic breakfast meat, pork roll, is a point of pride and passionate debate across the state. Thunder Pork Roll pays homage to this beloved delicacy and the historic “Pork Roll vs. Taylor Ham” debate. The uniform features a playful, anthropomorphic pork roll character, complete with the signature slits cooked into the meat. The design was a celebration of a uniquely New Jersey food and the fierce regional loyalty that comes with it, proving that some debates are best settled on the field, not at the breakfast table.

This summer's going to the dogs! This transformation celebrates the Thunder’s long and storied tradition of featuring Golden Retrievers as full-time batdogs, a first in all of baseball.
