Jersey Sniper turns a running joke into a game. Spot a sports jersey out in the world... it can be a benchwarmer's name in a coffee shop two thousand miles from his old team or a jersey from a franchise that moved cities, snipe it! The app identifies the player and scores how unlikely that jersey is in that place. HOW THE SCORE WORKS Two things decide it: how obscure the player is, and how far you are from that team's market. A superstar jersey at home barely registers. A deep-bench journeyman across the country is a big score. Then your friends vote, and their opinion takes over from the AI. WITH YOUR FRIENDS Posts go to your friends by default. React, comment, and vote on each other's finds. There's a weekly leaderboard for the best snipe, and a Sniper Rating that tracks who's consistently good rather than who got lucky once. SEE WHERE THEY LAND Every snipe drops a pin on a shared map, colored by score. RULES OF THE GAME Real snipes only... jerseys you actually spotted, not screenshots or stock photos. Ask before you photograph anyone, crop to the jersey, and never post a photo of a minor. Report and block are one tap away. Free. No ads.
