Bad Boys

Everyone heading to Indianapolis tomorrow!

A great night for the blue side in Slough after the match.

rowdyheron2 said:Just a heads-up if you're grabbing tickets for the supporters' section: any minors need to be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. If they aren't, you’ve got to have a written consent form from a parent or guardian already submitted and on file beforehand. No exceptions. LA Galaxy is going to step up as the organizer and pull the plug on selling tickets for the supporter section to minors unless they're accompanied by a parent. It’s pretty simple: either they have a legal representative on file, or they haven't actually submitted and stored the necessary consent forms. It's one or the other.

The club just dropped an update regarding membership and ticket access, and honestly, it’s about time they cleared things up. If you're looking to snag tickets for upcoming matches, there's some specific info here about how the priority system is working for members. Basically, being part of the inner circle means you get first dibs. They've laid out the whole process—how you can secure your spot before the general public gets a crack at them. It’s all about that member advantage, ensuring the core supporters are actually in the stands when the big games roll around. If you haven't sorted your membership status yet, you might want to jump on that. It’s pretty straightforward, but if you miss the window, you're stuck waiting behind everyone else. Just a heads-up for anyone planning their season around the big matchups. Get it sorted now so you aren't sweating it later.

The North Stand has basically become ground zero for repression. It’s honestly ridiculous—they’ve slapped a ban on selling tickets to minors, meaning high schoolers can't even get in without written parental consent, and apparently, this rule only applies to our section. It’s unbelievable. This is a massive blow to the future of the Bad Boys. We aren't just talking about a minor hiccup that affects next week's match; we're talking about something that guts the group's ability to build up new generations of fans. If you keep doing this, you won't have anyone left to carry the torch. Honestly, this is the perfect opportunity for the Baltimore Blast to step up and offer free entry to all the junior members of the club/group until things settle down.
I’ve been sitting here thinking about this video, and honestly, there’s just so much to unpack. It’s one of those pieces that really gets under your skin if you let it. You watch it, and you realize how much of the conversation around the sport is just surface-level noise, when the actual substance is buried somewhere deeper. It’s funny, isn't it? We spend all this time arguing over small details—tactics, single plays, individual mistakes—and then something like this comes along and forces you to look at the bigger picture. It’s almost like looking at a map of a city and realizing you’ve been staring at a single street corner for years while the rest of the metropolis was moving right past you. There’s a certain weight to what’s being said here. It isn't flashy, and it doesn't scream for your attention with cheap gimmicks, which is exactly why it works. It’s steady. It’s confident. It makes a series of claims that, once you hear them, feel almost impossible to disagree with, even if they ruffle a few feathers. People are going to get defensive, of course. That’s just how it goes. When you point out the structural flaws in a house, the people living in it aren't exactly going to thank you for the critique, even if you're technically right. Anyway, I don't want to ramble too much, but I really think anyone who considers themselves a serious fan needs to sit down and digest this. It’s more than just a video; it’s a perspective shift. Just my two cents.
I just caught this video, and honestly, I have some thoughts. It’s one of those clips that really gets you thinking about how much things have shifted lately. You watch it and you can't help but feel like we're seeing a different side of the game entirely. It’s interesting, isn't it? The way everything unfolds. Sometimes you expect one thing, and then—boom—the reality hits you differently. It reminds me of those long afternoons spent arguing over stats, only to realize the whole premise was off from the start. Anyway, I’m curious if anyone else felt that same shift while watching. What's your take? Is it a game-changer or just more of the same hype? Personally, I think we're looking at something much more significant than people are willing to admit right now.

Is this even legal here in America?
What kind of format are we talking about for all those certificates and paperwork?

steelangler12 said:Is this actually a legal move under American regulations?
What specific format should these certifications and documents take?

Well, from what I gather, they need to be notarized by a public notary... the madness truly knows no bounds.

Where have all those advocacy groups vanished—the ones that claim to fight so passionately for human rights and the liberties of children? As someone pointed out earlier, perhaps the Baltimore Blast should issue a manifesto right now demanding that every underage fan be granted free entry! Just imagine how much noise that would make in the media; on one hand, you have these restrictions preventing kids from even buying tickets, and on the other, you have the complete opposite: an open invitation for them to walk right in for free.

Just watch, they’ll go ahead and write that they don't recommend kids under five coming to the games 😵

Mordor at its absolute finest 🙏

Go futsal Baltimore Blast. Free entry for all minors—if necessary, I’ll be the first one to chip in $17 for a ticket just to cover the costs, as long as those scumbags get slapped hard.

I'm still a minor but I already grabbed my annual pass for the North Stand, what am I gonna do now? hahaha

Had a killer road trip through Indianapolis and some seriously good times out in St. Louis👍 I really hope things stay this way--just keeping the momentum going👍

It’s honestly great to see the River City Boy showing some life again😉

Anyone who hasn't shown up at the Rose Bowl lately, regardless of why, needs to realize that staying away is part of the problem. You can't just sit at home while people who joined the LA Galaxy scene yesterday try to push out those who have dedicated half their lives to this stadium. You can't stay home while they try to impose their own "rules" on our section, rules that will ultimately hurt our youngest supporters. We haven't learned anything from history if we only respond with words.

Can it be stated more clearly than this?

There is no excuse if you were ever part of the group!

EVERYONE TO THE DERBY!!

Hey everyone,

Does anyone have the scoop on this joke below?

Feel free to shoot me a DM too.

Anyone who’s been staying away from the Rose Bowl lately—whatever your excuse might be—needs to realize that's exactly why we find ourselves in this mess right now.

EVERYONE TO THE NORTH STAND!

My guess is it’s a remake—maybe with a few tweaks—of a joke that originally popped up back in the early 90s.

analogheron19 said:I’m pretty sure that’s just a remake (with a few tweaks) of a joke that came out back in the early 90s.

Actually, it isn't. That joke is actually from the late 80s. You can even find some old photos of people doing it over at the North Stand.

Henry Grant51 said:Nah, that’s just an old joke from back in the late 80s. You can actually find some photos of them hanging out at the old North Stand.

Some info I picked up suggests these are "prototype" jokes—like, maybe only 10 or 20 were ever printed.
I've no clue how accurate that is, which is why I'm throwing the question out here. 🙂

cosmicdriver11 said:From what I’ve heard through the grapevine, this scarf is meant to be a "prototype"—basically just one of maybe 10 or 20 being made to test the waters.
I honestly can't say for sure how accurate that is, which is why I figured I'd ask around here first. 🙂

The concept of bringing back a retro scarf is great, but if you look closely at this one, it has that small five-pointed star on it, which means it’s actually a design from the old era.
