John Perez13 said:The matchup on the 19th is going to be one of the best derbies at Candlestick Park since the league started. Assuming the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco keep crushing it until then, we’re likely looking at a massive battle for first place in the standings. San Francisco has never had a season this good; you can tell the whole city is buzzing. Tickets are going to be impossible to find, and our section is definitely going to be packed. The Ultras might actually break the attendance record at Candlestick Park this time (if you don't count the Panathinaikos game)...
Walter Mitchell said:People are drinking at almost every game, so don't give me that nonsense. There are actually two versions of it, but one version involves very little drinking or none at all because other groups find it mocking (though that really depends on 😁), basically—the crew, the booze, the taunting 😉
Personally, I couldn't care less if you guys drink or not, but what bugs me is how people try to push this idea like it's some huge, unprecedented thing.
Anyway, I'm also joining in the congratulations for the team in Kansas City, and like someone said, let's hope this streak lasts as long as possible.
Joshua Vaughn6 said:Alright then, why don't you tell me who was actually the first one to start flying flags on two poles? That's my only real point here... please, enlighten me.
And while we're at it, regarding that song... I have no clue who first snuck it into the stands, but people have been singing it forever. It's been noted before that they've been singing it in the West for ages, so why on earth should we stop now?

There’s a massive difference between just "copying" someone and lacking any sense of originality. We really strive to be unique, and honestly, I think we nail it—we're probably the best out there when it comes to coming up with our own songs, choreography, and supporter stunts. Even if we occasionally pick up a chant or an idea that’s popped up in another American stadium or even over in Europe, it’s just one isolated thing. With some other groups, it isn't just one song or flag; it's dozens of anthems and identical details that they've lifted.
Regarding the Cohort, I know some things weren't exactly spontaneous. I traveled with them to Bulgaria for the national team game, and they were practically obsessed with a certain "Oh, how I love Cleveland..." tune, only to turn it into a full-blown song shortly after. In their documentary, you even hear an older member say, "When we were picking a name, Armada meant a naval fleet, so we decided to go with a land-based version," and they even used the same font on their drums. So, yeah, there was likely some copying going on in the early days, and they’ve faced plenty of teasing about it since people caught on. I don't want to single out the Cohort too harshly, though; lately, they’ve been pretty original themselves, especially with those remixes of regional American songs that you now only hear in their section.
On the flip side, I'm 99% sure Mr. Ajmemeninijemidobro has never even heard of that Tornado flag, and as for that specific chant they sing, I doubt anyone has ever heard it before...
