Here’s a collection of eight vintage shots, capturing that transition from the late 80s into the early 90s.

That massive flare display and the smoke detail? That’s from the Partisans, which I think we've already seen a few times here. The shot from San Diego reminds me of that Great Wall of China situation—it's all about the atmosphere. Then there's the one dominated by a huge BBB logo; V.G. is originally from Indianapolis, if I recall correctly. As for the rest, my memory is failing me.

Fighting spirit, circa '90.

Man, what a trip down memory lane. We were Champions of Europe twice back then—once against Real Madrid and once against Zalgiris, led by their guy Arvydas Sabonis - Cibona... He was a massive kid, well over 7 feet tall, but he struggled with the pressure and practically had a therapist on the bench just to keep him steady. He was easily their best player, playing about 30% of the minutes, but he made a huge mental error right at the end of the first half. That mistake basically handed us the win on a silver platter. Because of that, we had to play much more cautiously throughout the rest of the game to avoid any more unforced errors. After Cibona’s run, Jugoplastika went on to dominate for three years. But the crazy thing is, even though we were back-to-back European champions, we couldn't even clinch our own national title because we lost that one heartbreaking game against Orlando.

That massive flare display and the shot through the smoke are from a Partisans game—I think I’ve already posted a few photos from that one. The shot featuring San Diego looks like it might be from that Great Wall of China moment, and the one where the big BBB logo dominates is from an Indianapolis match. I can't remember the rest.

That huge flare setup down south is from the Dinamo vs. Railway match during the final round of '91.

We’re finally getting those new spaces set up over in Pittsburgh soon! Honestly—it’s such a solid move, opening up these club locations in different cities... it’s bound to be huge for the group's future.👍

I'm really hoping it turns out just like that trip to Indianapolis. 😁

Well, my little project is definitely nearing its final stages... assuming I can actually stay focused once the wife gets involved. 😁 Just so you know, fellas, feel free to reach out via private message or to Robert Cooper60. I appreciate all the detailed advice, but man, my heart just isn't in it today...

What a refined photo. I believe they used to let people into the North stands for free back then... provided they had some club insignia, or at least that old-school emblem... 😁 You know, the official capacity for the North section was around 15,000 to 20,000 people. The middle number is probably closest to the truth. From what I recall, it was right after we won the first Cherina title back in '82. After that, there was a total fire sale of players—they played for whatever they could get, even if it meant selling everyone off just to survive. We were actually fighting to stay in the league for a few years there. Then the Yankees come along, every high school starts talking about the big matchups, and as soon as we arrive, you can't even see past the first row because the crowd is so thick... all you hear is that roar from the stands...

BDW—that guy holding the wooden flagpole, I'm pretty sure he's Frank from Poughkeepsie. (Though, I wouldn't mind if someone proved me wrong...) To me, the North Stand always looked the most packed, especially during that first match against Auxerom-prv. In fact, I actually moved over to the West Stand just to get a clear shot of it; it was almost like an obsession... I used to always grab two tickets just so I could film the crowd density in the West Stand center, the North, or even the South, depending on which section we were rotating through.

The issue with this thread (and the group) is that everything just revolves around history.

Does anyone happen to have a photo from the stands when that sign went up saying "Neither the Republican Party nor the Democratic Party, just Los Angeles FC and the Bad Boys"?
Thanks.
