Im gonna have a bunch of confetti if you guys wanna have it. Its been accumlated here in the office with the paper shredder...Let me know guys. I could hand you a bag full of it at the tailgate or something. thanks guys.
Is there a cheap source of South American style conffetti? Those seem like 1x1 or 1x2 inch to me, shreded stuff that La Norte throws is almost like sand, i still have some in my hair from Richmond game in summer I assumed we're never doing any to not get United into trouble (I mean someone might get papercut ) and just figured that when we have stadium where DCU has more say we can work on things like that. Also, I want to hold a smoke canister on that stadium before I die
La Norte mixes their confetti with flour! In the early days of La Barra we had a guy who only used Playboy centerfolds for our confetti. It was very popular........
Yeah, the flour gives it a smokey look (but man, what a mess and if it rains, paste!) I'm not sure how LN get's that small stuff. K
We have a paper shredder at home here..if people want I can just save our daily newspaper and shred it up and bring it to the game on the 30th..
We can hook you up with the small stuff, but we got so many complaints about it we stopped using it. I'll take as much of the big stuff as people have. Sachin
While the little stuff look great, it is a real pain the a$$ after the game...you find that in the most interesting places
My seats are over on the quite side, so all the soccer moms and dads would be angry if i threw an entire bag up. While it would amuse me, I dont wanna be in the hotseat for that. Thats why i bet you guys could put it to better use on the barra/SE side. Ill put it in a bag, im not sure exactly how much quatitiy it will be, but like i said, if you guys want it, its yours. Otherwise im probably just taking it to the dumpster.
One year when I was in high school, we used the chits from punched cards (think chads). They make excellent looking confetti, but they also get everywhere (especially if you drop some on your wood flooring), and they are "slightly" dangerous because the paper is solid and can be sharp so it can do scary things to your eyes if a piece floats in. But it looks fantastic Unfortunately, people really don't punch cards anymore (except in Florida I guess). Someone brought shiny red wrapping paper-looking confetti into the Nest a few games ago, it looked cool, but didn't float in the air really well - I just found some in my car....... I don't even bother trying to figure out how anything gets in my car after games any more.
We don't use that any more... Luis brings in bags of shredded paper now.... and a new Norteno like myself, Jhonattan does a lot of hand made stuff.. (with scissors or hands.. oh yeah.. there is a true fan for ya!!) I have a shredder myself, and that's how I make what I bring... Dougg
