I'm just curious, where did you get 'em? What materials, how much did they cost, etc. If you can help me out that would be great, thanks.:)

A fabric store, would be my guess

The Materials are pretty simple:

Red Cloth(Fabric Store)
White House Paint(Frazee/Comex :D)
Sponge Brushes
Yard Stick(Stencil)
Grease Pencil(Stencil)
Painters Tape
4 Cases of Beer
15 Union Ultras

The project takes 1 full day to plan out the banner and apply the first coat. I would suggest at least 2 coats to prevent the material color from bleeding through.

The beer is key.

Plastic tarp isn't a good idea because the paint won't take. And, yes, it usually takes two coats if it's acrylic paint. If you have a good enamel, it might take just one.

Buena suerte, hermano en football.

You guys and girls are looking really sharp this year. Keep up the good work.

I always wondered how Legion made that HUUGE banner from the last SuperClasico game from last year, let alone how they carried that thing in. That was pretty damn awesome.
