First off, all of the fans in Natal were awesome. It sounded like a legit home game in there, well done! Gonna sound slightly nitpicky, but what was up with the lack of AO banners and flags draped everywhere...or, anywhere?
I was at the game and wondering the same thing. The Ghana fans had a big flag and I kept expecting to see one of ours but never did.
The person who owns the BAF (Big Ass Flag) is not here, and I doubt anyone wants to take the responsibility for shipping that heavy item here & luging it all around Brazil.
I was told on several occasions by stadium officials to remove my flag from the facade of the second level.
Yeah, I've noticed there's been a lack of banner hanging overall at the tournament, makes sense....even though I think there are no ads on the facades in the stadiums there?
I noticed some Argentinians managed to hang a big "Malvinas are ours" banner during one of the group games.
I thought EdK owned it. Perhaps he only is/was the custodian. I have emailed him, and will report his response, if there is one.
A group of us put money together to buy it off of ebay but that I believe that the North Jersey Brigade guys have it. It's not like the Stanley Cup where each of us gets it for a few days a year.
Here it is, regarding both the Big & Baby Ass Flags: "Both flags are still in my basement. They are in OK condition I guess."
