Bad Boys - Part IV

Benjamin Anderson2 said:Look, I’ve always been against the Indianapolis team and I still have some old beef with them, but obviously I bought my ticket last night without thinking twice. All this drama people are stirring up is just pure nonsense.

Spot on.

I was just playing it safe, thinking maybe federal agents were running their own plays behind the scenes, so I shared it just in case.

Someone in charge seriously needs to have a word with this woman. She’s out there embarrassing this entire group everywhere she goes. If she’s the one representing us on Facebook and all over the web, we aren't going to get very far.

Samuel Walker10 said:I have a quick question for anyone here who might be a lawyer or just someone familiar with how the legal system works. I wonder if this whole thing with hiding out and running away is going to hurt the next of kin? Like, would it actually impact their sentencing or anything? If it ends up making the punishment heavier, I guess maybe he should just stay under the radar a bit longer until they finally catch him and it's over with. 👍

In a normal world, I suppose that kind of behavior would be seen as an aggravating factor that should lead to a harsher sentence. But this is America, so maybe things work by a different set of rules here, just like they usually do.

It looks like a decent chunk of the crew from Portland is on the list, but they definitely missed a few people. Honestly, if I were running things, I’d be making a massive scene in the media right now. We need news crews everywhere, cameras rolling while fans are out there struggling to grab tickets—anything to get people hyped up. There are more than enough reasons to stir the pot, get everyone energized, and drag them out to the stadium. Despite all the chaos, we just need to do whatever it takes to pack the North Stand.

And what if one were to find themselves among the supporters gathered outside the stadium? 🤷

How much longer can this actually go on....

Samuel Miller55 said:What if we just cheered right outside the stadium instead?... 🤷

He cut me off right there! I totally agree with him, though... if only they played like this every single game...

Some low-life, bottom-of-the-barrel crowd calling themselves Americans is probably gonna cheer this latest decision from the league commissioner—since apparently "trash" doesn't belong in the stands anymore... I mean, what can you even say about that?

We need to take these damn blacklists to court and tear them down once and for all. If I’m reading this correctly, they’re slapping people on these lists based on this "collective responsibility" nonsense—and that kind of thing just doesn't fly here. Seriously, I need to find the best lawyer in the country and get them on retainer immediately to crush these blacklists in court as fast as humanly possible. I don't care what the legal fees look like; we'll scrape the money together to make it happen.

There is absolutely no way it’s true that everyone from Indianapolis is on some blacklist... It has to be interpreted as them trying to block people from even buying tickets and getting through the gates! I highly doubt it, because if I—like I said before—and a few of my buddies managed to snag tickets... there's no reason why almost everyone else can't...

driftingfalcon88 said:this spineless, bottom-feeding crowd that still calls themselves Americans is just going to roll over and accept this latest move from the front office because they think "troublemakers" don't belong in the stands... I mean, what can you even say at this point

Just look back at what we were talking about right before the big rivalry game when we were all hanging out together in the East Stand, or that time over at Locomotion during the truce when they were demanding IDs just to buy tickets while we were sitting over in the West...
There were maybe ten of us who flat-out refused to hand over our IDs to get those tickets, and we figured out ways to get in regardless, whether it was a Dynamo game or a match against Locomotion.
And here we are today, seeing exactly what we called from a mile away. They're using that data to build blacklists.

It couldn't have gone any worse than this path of least resistance...

Benjamin Anderson2 said:There is absolutely no way it’s true that everyone from Indianapolis is on some blacklist... you have to look at it differently. It feels more like they're trying to block people from even getting a chance to buy tickets or get through the gates! I highly doubt it, because if I—like I said before—and my buddies actually managed to snag tickets... there is zero reason why nearly everyone else can't get in...

So what, is this whole thing just a freaking lottery?

It’s all or nothing, period.

So, here’s the deal—I just got off the phone with the club's ticket office to see if I could snag a ticket, and they told me straight up that it's a no-go. Apparently, if I want to argue about it, I have to take it up with the front office, since they're the ones who handed down that specific directive to the staff at the window.
When we played Indianapolis, I headed straight into the North Stand without any drama whatsoever—not before the match, not after, nothing. No one even bothered to note my name down, except for that brief moment when I was actually buying a ticket

True, though I guess the real question is how much of this media speculation actually holds water—but even if they aren't right about everything, things have definitely gone way too far lately..

Last December, I didn't show an ID for either derby in Chicago. I made it into the first one, couldn't get into the second... and honestly, I'm doing the exact same thing on 11/22. If they don't let me through without an ID, I’m just turning around and heading home...

Listen, guys, we have to push this story through every media outlet possible. We need to go loud. Because if things keep going the way they started, nobody is ever going to get into the stadium again—except for maybe a hundred people hand-picked by the owner or his buddies from the front office.

Benjamin Anderson2 said:Look, I was against the Indianapolis match myself—I’ve had my issues with them for quite some time—yet I went ahead and bought my ticket last night without a second thought. All this talk about being barred is just nonsense people are making up.

I just got back from the ticket booth (🤦) and the guy behind the counter flat-out told me he couldn't sell me a ticket. The official line? A "ban." He claimed the system threw an error message at him saying I was restricted—which is pure absurdity, considering I'm a registered club member. To make this tragicomedy even more ridiculous, I have never once been penalized for anything in my life. I had zero issues buying tickets for the Indianapolis game previously and attended that match without incident.

Last December, I didn't show an ID for either of the first two derbies in Chicago, I got into the first one, couldn't make it into the second, and on November 22nd it'll be the exact same thing—if they don't let me through without my ID, I'm just turning around and walking away...

I know exactly what's going on, that's why I'm telling you, we were already talking about this before the Locomotion game.
All the different groups should have stood their ground together regarding these personalized tickets while these illegal blacklists are still floating around, but whatever...
The whole fan culture is just bottom-of-the-barrel right now, and honestly, it might already be too late to fix any of it.
They went and screwed up the voucher system, and now people are forced to buy tickets tied to their IDs. 😕

Back then, all the groups should've stood together to demand personalized ticketing instead of letting these illegal blacklists run wild, but whatever...
The whole supporter culture here is just bottom-tier right now. It’s probably too late for anything to change.
Vouchers are basically useless since you still need an ID to buy tickets anyway. 😕

I guess it’s too little, too late for certain things (though I'm sure people will start whining about "fairness" once they get what they want)—the scene is just too small and disorganized. You've got one group actually holding it down (Torca), one group that's completely fallen apart (Bad Boys), and a third one I won't even bother mentioning because they aren't worth the breath ("we're alone against everyone," right?), and everything else? Practically non-existent...

Article 28! ☕
Therefore, Dynamo is in direct violation of that specific article, and it stands to reason that we should all collectively file a lawsuit with the Supreme Court against Dynamo based on those grounds!!!
