The Butler Bulldogs are paying homage to their home city.

The men's basketball team revealed new alternate uniforms called the "Checker Out" uniforms in honor of "The Racing Capital of the World."

Butler is located in Indianapolis, which is the home to Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the famous Indianapolis 500 IndyCar race.

The race is held annually and the 2025 version will be held on May 26. It has been held since 1911, which is 15 years after Butler's inaugural basketball season.

The Bulldogs are currently 7-9 on the 2024-25 season and 0-5 within the Big East Conference. They have not reached the NCAA Tournament since 2018.

Butler will wear the uniforms for Saturday's matchup against Creighton. It is the second annual "Checker Out" game and fans will be asked to wear white or dark shirts based on their sections. This will be done to create a checkered flag pattern within the arena.
