VTG 2004 Tennessee Lady Vols Phantom NCAA Champions Hat – Pre-Release Error Rare

This is a rare piece of Lady Vols basketball history—an unissued 2004 NCAA Women’s Basketball “National Champions” hat, made in anticipation of a Tennessee win that didn’t happen (UConn won the final). These were never widely circulated, making it a true phantom championship collectible.
