i know we have a whack of issues with the club right now, and as much as i feel we should concentrate on those as a group, to be perfectly honest.. it gets a bit taxing. when the team goes down, our morale goes down with it, we start arguing, we point fingers, cast blame, it's expected. so.. i propose a good ol' fashion distraction thread!!
post either your first or most memorable experience with the club and with the Red Patch Boys!! hopefully looking back at better days will cheer us up a bit and help us through what's bound to be a long road ahead.
most memorable TFC experience:
- the montreal miracle waking up in a tree incident.
- the Cruz Azul game (90 minutes of sheer MADNESS!).
- the 4-1 win over chicago (the Labrocca wind assist and Barrett netting two) in the pouring rain.
most memorable RPB experience: the dichio banner..
- OH GOD. i remember it was the first time i actually took part in a banner session. i mentioned it to my girlfriend and a friend, they both came to help out. i remember going over the specs of it and having my girlfriend go "wait.. it's HOW BIG!?" (she's an artist and knows what a job of that size means for man hours/supplies). three amazing sessions, and it was done. we had tickets to the game with a group of our friends and when that thing went up the six of us just stood there in awe. fuck, that was mental.
first memorable RPB experience: streamer shower at the PR game
- the streamer shower for the PR islanders game. i ran out and got a couple hundred streamers with a few friends with the intention of getting the first two rows of the top deck to plummet em downwards. i was taping instructions on them at joes so random fans could time them with the RPB's and i'd asked for help handing them out on the forums. so this guy was eying me when i walked into joes with a garbage bag full of streamers and emptied it on the table. he walks over and goes "hey, you must be wowza (extends hand) i'm pookie, need a hand?" not gonna lie, before i met him, i thought pookie was a girl. i also remember after that getting a text from king dave saying it looked good, and being kinda disappointed that it wasn't typed in all caps like his old threads.
