The Armada

Hopefully this time you finally hit some decent numbers out in Los Angeles...

Look, you can say whatever you want about how things went down, but this isn't really what forums are for—I’d actually be super grateful if you could help me track this one down... I remember seeing an article on the front page of a free tabloid, something about some shootings over at Dodger Stadium or something like that... And yeah, I’m crossing my fingers for some decent numbers, but honestly, who knows? When the club is struggling at the bottom of the standings, you just never quite know where they'll land...

I think there was an article on the front page of the local paper about some shooting over at the stadium or something similar... And yeah, I’m hoping for decent numbers too, but who knows? The club is playing in the minor leagues right now, and you can never tell with these things...

I don't know about any article in that free paper. I’m talking about that piece in the San Francisco Chronicle or whatever it was called...
Prika, if it's not too much trouble, just shoot me a DM with the stuff that's "off-limits" for the forum. I want to see exactly how much they've been feeding you lies.😍

Hey, if you wouldn't mind, shoot me a DM with all the stuff that isn't allowed on the forum so I can see just how much they were lying to you.😍

It was in the New York Post... seriously, if any of you guys have those articles, please dig them up. I need them for my collection and I'm having zero luck finding them online.

My filing cabinet is already overflowing with clippings.
I’d love to see that article myself...
I was just talking to some guy who claims the local paper reported that the armada attacked the rival fans and the police. Honestly, it's laughable. You watch this video and it's crystal clear who's actually swinging at whom, and exactly which side the cops are busy saving from a beating...

Excuse me—which game are we actually talking about here? What year are you referring to, and does anyone even know the final score?

Man, remember that Hajduk vs. Rijeka game back in Split in 2005? The armada showed up totally unorganized right in front of the stadium and everything just went south—total brawl. You should dig up those old articles from the local papers like the LA Times or something.

The away fans showed up to the stadium totally uncoordinated—it turned into a complete mess with brawls breaking out everywhere. You could probably find some old coverage from the New York Post or the LA Times if you look hard enough.

I don't have the articles handy—but I'll dig around online; there's got to be something archived somewhere.

We’ve completely muddied the waters here. What I was actually getting at... that robbery happened ages ago. It was back when Sioux Falls was still a thing, maybe even the night before the big game. Honestly, I don't even know who's still holding onto all that nonsense anymore. It definitely wasn't just yesterday.

Seriously though, I’ve been looking everywhere and I just can’t find it anywhere...

ironscout10 said:Come on—I’ve looked everywhere and I just can't find a trace of it...

I went through the archives for a bit, and honestly, nothing turned up. Are we talking about the championship—where our choreography was really just one standout moment—or the cup, back when there were maybe 1,000 of you? And are you absolutely certain it was 2005?

urbanhawk10 said:I took a quick look through the archives. Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Are we talking about the championship—where our choreography was just one small part of the show—or the cup, back when there were nearly a thousand of you? And are you even sure it was 2005?

No way in hell it was 2005. It had to be earlier...

Man, 2004 was... I really blew it...

If I remember correctly, that whole incident near Sioux Falls involving the armada went down back in 2004 ☕

Is this the one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bb20qVc2nIw?

That link is a complete disaster.

Hey,
just had one question for you guys... I heard that last season during the game in Columbus, you were all chanting "wild boars are being slaughtered today" and calling out some kind of "wild boars"?!?!?!?!
I honestly don't get what the hell you're trying to achieve. When I heard that old-school stuff, I couldn't stop laughing. 😂
Wild boars?! 😂 😂 😂 🤣 😍
Where has this whole scene gone? Threatening people and summoning wild boars... next thing you know, you'll be starting some blue brigade or angels from Chicago 😲 😲
No offense intended, but I really am baffled.
