WJRZ







In over 40 years of broadcasting, WJRZ has kept the same call letters through about a half-dozen different formats: Top-40, Adult Contemporary, Oldies, Rock-leaning CHR and Country (twice).  The WJRZ shark mascot has also made an appearance in at least three different decades.  The currently shark-free WJRZ is licensed to Manahawkin, New Jersey and carries a Classic Hits format.

This acid-washed denim jacket probably dates back to when WJRZ was a Top-40 station. All I would need are some mirrored sunglasses, Bon Jovi's "Slippery When Wet"-era hair and some original Air Jordans to complete the Jersey Shore-circa-1987 look. The station's shark logo is embossed right into the denim. (click it to enlarge) It's actually kinda cool and fits perfectly but I've never worn it in public. Maybe later today....
