They finally made it into town, but nobody’s actually impressed just because they took some photos.

If they had rolled in without any photographic evidence, people would probably be calling the whole thing a delusional myth. 🤣 🤣

Honestly, for them, just having three people show up at an away game counts as a massive win, so trying to explain high-level strategy to them is basically like trying to teach nuclear physics to a goldfish. They just don't get it.

If they had broken in without a photo, people would be calling it pure delusion—maybe even mythomania. 🤣 🤣

Look, this is just a group of guys dealing with diabetes—it’s an open seminar on the subject held at a Hilton Hotels. Black Knights, stop talking nonsense.

no photo, it didn't happen ☕

honestly feels like it's just the same old walk down the Mississippi every single time, whatever...

hopefully they let them go soon. I don't even get what law they actually broke 🙂🙂🙂

Don't worry, the Rangers Supporters Club won't be leaving anyone hanging... they probably already have a message ready to go over morning coffee downtown.☕

By the way, does anyone have a photo from the main stage? I assume the guys didn't want to snap any pictures from behind just to avoid a mutiny—it's hard to tell which troublemakers actually made it in from these shots... you guys are truly something else in these photos.

We aren't even getting an HD feed—so let's not pretend this counts for anything.

The Patriots, quit talking nonsense...

Whatever. It's still twice as much as everyone else at the Rose Bowl.🤷

Look, if I had a ticket, I’d be there—but it's not exactly a great idea to just stand around from 2 PM to 8 PM without any basic amenities.

I guess I'll just stick to my usual routine—not much to say really, maybe just keeping things moving along. kaže:
I haven't had a chance to watch that video yet—it looks interesting, though—but I'll definitely check it out when I have a moment. Maybe it'll be worth the time, I guess.

Take a look at everything—not once does Seattle even get mentioned. 😉

It’s kind of wild that nobody is actually talking about this interview—not the first part or this second half—and instead everyone is just busy bickering with The Ultras.
I guess the guy is just debunking some myths that have somehow turned into "facts" over the years—mostly because people kept repeating them. If we're talking about the king of myth-makers, though, it's definitely Bauer. 😁 I guess there are always people from every group who claim something is impossible. What’s even worse—and this is just my take—is how some of our prices end up being totally wrong, and certain people have basically become myths. Before 2009, nobody in Prle's generation really knew their way around the internet, so people just believed just about anything they read back then—it was a different world, I suppose.
I guess I shouldn't be too shocked by what I've found out—I honestly thought things were going to be completely different. Maybe it’s a good thing there's at least one person who can take it all in stride, though... because if everyone else felt this way, all those old myths might actually start feeling like reality.

I’m honestly getting a bit sick of listening to this guy's interview—it's just frustrating. On one hand, he's basically an encyclopedia when it comes to the local fan culture, but then he starts spinning these wild myths... like claiming The Patriots just made up all that old-school fanaticism out of thin air. It's a bit much, I guess.
So, the story about how our group got its name back in the day isn't some official thing from the city—it just kind of happened through a bunch of random conversations over time. There isn't really one specific historical moment that explains it all. I’ve heard this guy claim he was sitting at a drive-in theater with Sarma, Icho, and Buba when the name just popped up, but honestly... I don't know. Buba—who was a really close friend of mine, God rest his soul—never had any clue about it and definitely never mentioned it to me. And Icho, who was also a dear friend, only brought up his part in naming the group right before he passed away. Even after traveling with the two of them to dozens, maybe even hundreds, of games across the country, I never once heard this story about a summer movie night being the origin of our name. And now, well, we can't exactly ask them anymore. It's funny how things work out like that, I guess. Even Sarma doesn't seem to know anything about this supposed event—though I suppose he's still around if anyone ever wants to double-check.
Hey, I’m just calling out to all the old BBB folks—my generation specifically—to chime in. I'd love to hear when you guys first heard the story about how we actually got our name.
I personally remember how it all started—I still recall those talks under the old stadium lights about what our name should be, and I remember when we first made that banner over by the civic arena. I’ve got plenty of memories stretching back to '83 and my very first away trip, though I don't really remember much from that era regarding the local movie theater. That whole idea actually came a bit later—it sort of crept in, maybe starting as a quiet suggestion from Maša's side before eventually becoming this widely accepted thing. I can say for sure that our name was basically taken from the title of the movie *Bad Boys*. That’s the truth of it—though, since so many different people and groups suggested it, there was a ton of debate and philosophy involved before it finally stuck.
If anyone deserves credit for that nickname, it’s probably one of those early fans who went by Doli—he was the one who really started circulating it during our old stories. Anything else you hear is either just an urban legend or some attempt at fake hype from those guys over in Seattle.
I’m honestly just so tired of all the posturing from those old-school hardliners and big-time conservatives—you know, the ones who spent years shouting about revolution and tearing down the old system. It’s funny, really... because once things actually got real and it was time to stop talking and start acting, those same self-proclaimed patriots—the ones who spent so much time filling everyone's heads with talk of fighting for the country—were suddenly the first ones signing up for foreign battalions or boarding ships to head overseas.
Come on, guys—let’s just leave history alone. Please, for the sake of everyone who actually bled and gave everything during the war... I'm talking about all the American fans from every corner of this great country.
And what about Bauer? Well, given his vocabulary and way of thinking, he's probably more of an intellectual than most people here—which I guess is why it bugs them. That's why they call him a mythomaniac—the very people who basically pioneered the written word among American fans. He writes in verse, uses epic style... it's all just steeped in this raw heroism. Though, of course, that heroism is always written from a solo perspective.
Sorry for going off-topic.
That was such a killer move by the Black Knights in Seattle—that whole takeover of the city. Seriously cool stuff.

NegA... honestly, I don't think we'll ever reach those numbers of away fans...
