    It appears that the four supporters groups in the title have banded together for the 2020 home/season opener this coming Saturday.

    The Big Ass Drum, which I've aleady loved since Day 1 of its implementation, seemed to be put to even better use throughout the 2020 home-/season opener. Perhaps not coincidentally, the aforementioned union of supporters groups was congregated right next to it near that corner of the stadium's north side. :thumbsup:

    Was the union in charge of banging the Drum throughout the game (which would certainly explain its greater synchronicity with the various cheers this time around) or was it still a San Jose Earthquakes employee banging the Drum like last season? :confused:

    GO SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES!!! :cool:

    Hello,

    I'm helping a popular newspaper in Estonia, Eesti Ekspress, get more information on how some San Jose Earthquake fans use Estonian flags at home games. Estonians are thrilled to see this _ and are interested in learning more about it.

    Does anyone know more about this phenomenon? Is there anyone at a fan club who can talk to me about this?

    If anyone on this forum knows more about this and can let me know, that would also be great.

    Also hoping to get some photos of fans waving the flag.

    Post here. I can also be reached at Michael.Tarm@gmail.com and at 312 203 8620.

    I'd be grateful for any information, including who to reach out to.

    Here are some of my questions:

    Any idea how this practice of waving Estonian flags started or who started it?

    Is the practice associated with one particular fan club?

    Why are the flags sometimes flown upside down _ with the white on top and the blue on the bottom? Is that closer to the team color scheme?

    Are most fans aware of the flag being an Estonian flag? (Perhaps some just think of it as the team flag?)

    Any idea where people get the flags? Are they sold anywhere in San Jose?

    Thanks so much.

    Apparently all of these groups united to become the Seismic Union.
