    Actually, if it was truly as Jesus intended, it would involve a banana, cherries, sprinkles, whipped cream, and Amy Fadool prepping for a colonoscopy. ;)

    Are you singing "Sons of Ben" or literally "S-O-Bs."

    Seems like "Sons of Ben" would work.

    this is better.

    also, shouldn't it be "can't hear the Empire/South Ward sing"? if we're using the same cadence as the video, we need three syllables.

    Hilarious: the RBA usher asking our group of SoBs "Can you sing the 'We All Hate Red Bull' song again?"

    Also hilarious: it took ESC/GSS/whomever _two years_ to notice that there was a Sons Of Ben sticker in RBA's Section 220 stairwell.:cool:

    The piss poor match aside, I want to thank Kelly, Stella, Lozo, and every one else who made he trip possible. There was plenty to eat and drink at the tailgate, and we were loud and boisterous all damned night.

    thank You!!!

    For future reference, I parked in that abandoned building lot right near the stadium...

    had no issue, and in fact actually had 2-3 good conversations with red bull fans about their stadium, about PPL, MLs in general, etc.

    I haven't heard anything about it. In fact, I haven't heard a single problem or issue, aside from someone who had a little too much of his own to drink on the busride there, and needed medical attention before 6pm.

    Yeh, I walked too and from the Newark train station without issue. I "crossed the bridge" like that bafoon on the 133 blog dared us to do with no trouble at all.

    I was even able to take care of my half time ritual at RBA as well :)

    Just figured I'd post on here: I lost two scarves yesterday, one SOB til I die and one of the pink cow variety. I was sitting in the second row of 220. If anyone picked them up from the back of my chair, please PM me and I'll arrange something. Had a great time yesterday besides that and thanks to everyone for setting it up!

    I don't think I'll ever understand North Jersey referring to us as "Philthy."

    Any other team. Fine. But North Jersey?

    For those of us who went but did not get their scarves, who should we (meaning I) contact?

    You mean the scarves 99 percent of the people on BS complained about?

    I'm not sure.

    From what I understand, they got held up in customs. Once they are received, you will be contacted about them.
