The Utah Unicorns' kid-sized gear will almost certainly fly off the shelves.
We then asked ChatGPT to provide some suggestions based on Utah's unique heritage.
What if Utah's NHL team celebrated the state's early pioneer settlers and the dinosaurs that once roamed its desert landscape?
We then inspired ChatGPT to consider Utah's wildlife and release animal-themed jerseys.
