Touque......

[Oblio2]

So, I was just in the line for Tims, up in North York and while in the linuep, saw that the guy behind me had on the same TFC Touque that was given out at the game. I made a brief comment and we exchanged pleasantries.

I was wondering, If I see someone in TFC gear, I'll usually say something. Do you do the same?
Do you give a quick hello? a quiet "Nice Jersey" comment....
maybe you yell "C'mon the Reds" or do you stand and scream "WHO ARE YA"?-Pointing at them and waiting for them to yell back?

*Note.
Last season I was walking home and yelled "Who Are YA" to a kid in a TFC jersey and I think he thought I was going to mug him. LOL

So....what do you do?

[JDG]

LOL - Last year, I talked to a lot of people. This year, not as many.
I wear TFC and RPB gear every day, and I get some looks, but rarely does a conversation develop these days.
Just yesterday, on the subway, a guy got on, and took a seat right in front of me. I had a TFC shirt under a RPB jacket, with my RPB Bar Scarf, and the guy didn't so much as glance in my direction. I was standing right in front of him. If he had looked up, I would have said something.

I work at Loblaws and deal with customers all day long...Every day I see people wearing TFC hats, jerseys etc. and I always acknowledge it...it's kinda like the "Jeep wave" that Jeep drivers give to each other

[GabrielHurl]

I don't really pay much attention to be honest - someone else wearing a TFC shirt isn't exactly rare these days

[Daveisonfire]

I usually ask them, "Ques ce vous chantez?"

[Wagner]

usually - the nod.

[Afra]

I passed as guy in the Rome airport a month or so ago. I would have made more of a stink as we were both wearing jerseys but I only had time for a 'NICE!' on my way by - he pulled the crest up on his jersey and put an arm in the air. I have done the C'mon you Reds and Qu'est'ce vous chantez before with mixed results - some answer and others look at me like I am a freak. The 'TFC clap clap clap' works also.

What's the "Jeep wave"?

Jeep people don't do rallies and picnics like the Saturn people do right? LOL!

[Carts]

I do the nod...

Small gesture, and its not gonna turn into an akward "...is this guy hitting on me...?" feeling from the other person (especially if its a dude LOL)...

Carts...

[Fort York Redcoat]

usually - the nod.

this year, yeah cause their everywhere down here. But last year I stuck to T-F-C! Since you never know how many games they get to.

Don't mess with the Jeep and my wave!

I will usually try to exchange a convo here and there.......I tend to be talkative at times.....

[TFC OZZ]

I always say "nice scarf" or something to that extent

[sulfur]

Dude. Coming from you, it always looks like a come on.

[Bluenose13]

Dude. Coming from you, it always looks like a come on.

That's because he is a man slut

funny you say this...i dropped my daughter off at dance lst night...I usally drop her off and take off for an hour and then pick her up.....i noticed some dude wearing a TFC jersey...i went over and said nice jersey ...what ya know...the next hour we chatted everything TFC..


another example.. I was in cambridge driving around...and i have a RED PATCH BOYS DECAL on my back window.....a car pulls up beside me with 4 or 5 in it..and that start yelling WHO ARE YA ..WHO ARE YA..at me!

[Parkdale]

If I see someone in a TFC I'll usually say Nice Hat or Nice jersey or something like that. Granted, I'm a bit more extroverted than most.

Hell... if it wasn't for strangers coming up to people in TFC gear in dark bars, Flatpicker never would have met me.

[Parkdale]

oh, side note.

all the players have those toques. Apparently they were upset that they didn't get them, so yesterday I got to see them almost fighting over them. Guevara wanted two but Jimmy was giving him grief in a jokey way. Sometimes I forget they're young guys too.

[flatpicker]

I saw a young lady walking around the other day with a jersey on and I said,"Hey, nice tits!"
For some reason she got really upset with me. Doesn't she realise I am a TFC fan too???

[CretanBull]

What's the "Jeep wave"?

My friend drives a Jeep...whenever he passes someone on the road who's also driving a Jeep they wave to each other, it's like a telegraphed secret hand shake that us non-Jeep drivers know little about

LMAO - I loaned Guevara my touque at the reserves game. If he had shown more interest in it, I would happily have let him keep it. It was pretty cold, but he seemed to handle it a bit better with the touque & scarf.

Yes...it is highly sophisticated and should be only left to us Jeep drivers......I can't get into it, but the technicalities involved are immense....as well as the repercussions when not done....

[Damien]

Will these touques be for sale?

[JDG]

Will these touques be for sale?

I don't think so. It was a giveaway for the first 10,000 into the stadium.

[Jay P]

hopefully not with a big fat kia logo on the back

i love this touque

wore both it and my tfc scarf to work today

We need some RPB patches to cover the KIA logo

[Damien]

oh it has kia on it, forget it.

[akoto]

I usually give the nod. I was wearing my Jersey in Vegas recently and had many people start TOR-ONT-OHHH TFC and Dichio24 which was odd and very cool. It helped to be buzzed at the time because having people start a chant directed at you in front of hundreds of people can be awkward sometimes.

[alexintoronto]

Unless it's Parkdale I give them a friendly greeting.
