The Sixers unveiled their new City Edition uniforms on Tuesday, a look that's inspired by Rocky and Creed’s boxing tales and the city’s “rich history of the challenger’s mentality,” whatever that means.
They’re okay as far as specialty uniforms go, although they’re a definite downgrade from last year’s City Edition getup.

But the team is doing its best to build hype around the new look, and its newest effort is one that could benefit you — yes, you! — in a big way.
The team is holding a City Edition-themed giveaway, tying in with the upcoming Creed sequel.
If you enter the contest by Nov. 7 at noon, you could win:
• Two tickets to the Sixers’ Nov. 9 game against the Hornets
• A pair of the new City Edition jerseys
• Two tickets to an advanced Creed II screening
• The crown jewel: a special meet-and-greet with Creed star Michael B. Jordan
Considering all you have to do to enter the contest is drop in your first and last names and your email account, and then press an Internet button, that’s a pretty great haul.
“Creed II” opens in theaters on Nov. 21. You can watch the latest trailer for the film right here.
