Dear Inferno Power-That-Be:
Love the drums.
Love the singing.
Love the chants.
Love the banners.
Love the flags.
Love the signs.
Love the streamers.
Love the confetti.
Love the insults (most of them).
Hate the smoke.
At the Revs match the wind kept the smoke down in the bowl and my eyes about popped out. :eek:
Plus I missed seeing a goal.
Can you lose the smoke? Or at least find some more tasty smoke? Do they make peppermint smoke bombs? Or tropical fruit?
Thanks for your consideration. Keep doing what you do best.
It ain't smoke.

Love smoke.
I vote for flares. Serie A has flares. Italy won the World Cup. Coincidence? I think not.

Flares or smoke are stupid.
Support your clubs with your voices.

I sit over on the west sideline and I can't hear the singing most of the time..... but i can see the smoke, confetti, and flares (if they come)
I'd rather have a hundred strong singing, but anything to boost the atmosphere works for me...

Sorry about the smoke, we've found what works and doesn't. We have smaller smoke bombs(last for about a minute to a minute and a half) and the bigger ones(3-5 minutes) and no one really likes them.
We're trying to find colored smoke but no such luck yet.

I like the smoke.
So does Marcello Balboa, per his commentary on national broadcast........uh, erm....forgive me a moment while I ponder the precarious position in which I have place myself.
Screw it. He's right (in this instance).
It's bringing "the people's game" to the populace in terms that those who love soccer already know and understand.
The endline = smoke.
Man rule.

I'm not talking about smoke I'm talking about the 5 minute smoke bombs.....most of us in the Inferno(myself included) LOVE the smoke just not the huge ones where you can't even see the game.
The smoke will be there every game trust me on that one.

smoke=quality atmosphere kinda
good on ya mate!
the smoke is a great thing to bring to the game and it gets people attention and livens up the endline, some people are moving out of the way others are coming near it.

You can buy smoke different places and online. Smoke, stadium horns, etc can be bought at party supply places often. Flares, camping supply places.

Flares (you want highway type)

Horns:

Flags custom made with logo:
http://www.usflagshop.com/Custom%20Flags.htm
Other places sell bigger ones and you can even make your own if you are inclined. google "make your own colored smoke"
Flags and banners can be made or purchased.
Streamers are usually toilet paper died with food coloring OR those big paper table coverings (again you can get them from party supply places).
Smoke and banners and streamers look great during the day, flares look great at night. do not mix flares with streamers for obvious reasons.
Many supporters groups make their own flags out of cheap material, others just put their money together and buy some for the whole group or sell them as part of membership to the group.
In america there are dozens of places that make cheap nylon or poly flags, but like i said, you can make a flag easy. material plus sewing machine or safety pins and scissors.
Ask Barra Brava they will help you out i think.

The hell you do. Where do you come up with this shit?
The highway type burn for about a half hour and have way too much burning crap falling off of them to be held in the hand. The flares used by supporters groups are marine flares which burn for 60-90 seconds and are designed for handheld use. PLUS you can get marine flares that smoke while burning bright which creates the really awesome looking effects (flare lights up the smoke).
Stop posting everywhere. Before you click "submit post" stop and count to ten. Ask yourself, "does this really need to be said?" I don't mean to be a dick but I'm fairly confident the rest of BigSoccer feels this way as well.

You're correct. The type you say are the right ones, marine type not highway type.
Thanks for the correction :)
