    I could have sworn there was a thread like this but damn if I can find it.

    Anyway, Corey, Heather and I knocked out a 2-pole tonight. Here's a photo documentary of the process:

    Here's the near-finished version...the bones need to be painted white still and it needs some touching-up:

    I know that we're all united behind the SOB name, but what about flags/banners that feature a town name or something to that effect? Also-and sorry if this has been covered elsewhere-but let's say that me and a group of friends who are affiliated with SOB want to hang one of these towny flags. Are we going to have a problem getting it in?

    We already have PA, DE, NJ, and Philly flags. I'm sure If you had a flag for your town, it'd be fine to hang it. It'd probably look pretty cool, in fact, to have a bunch of different flags.


    On the subject of tifo, here's one I made with the idea of making it a whole-section banner, to be shown in the buildup before the game:

    Oh and we're also thinking of doing a massive painting party next weekend. If anyone has a relatively large space (bigger than a living room) that we can do one in for free, let us know.

    I already told Corey I'm in. I'll bring my projector so we have two, but mine's old school - needs a transparency. They make 'em at staples for a buck, but it requires pre-planning/printing.

    Does anyone have a big empty garage? I could also maybe get a small lunchroom (bigger than a living room but smaller than a gym) in Exton if you guys are willing to travel and move the tables and chairs out of the way.

    Trying to play with this image...there's just too much detail, it'll take a week and a half to get paintable, then another week and a half to paint. Cobra Commander is going to be a lot easier...

    My first thought was "Three cheers for Heather" but those photos were not the one's I expected to see. ;)

    Nice banner btw, do you do that before or after you knocked out a 2-pole? :p

    This is hilarious by the way. Gives sitting ski poles a new definition for terrace girls.
