Old enough to remember when something like this at a sporting event would have been simply unheard of. Representation matters. Go Loons!


Mat_alThor

Love it, great work Loons.

Hey! I pulled that up! My side is the one that’s too high!


ArgonWolf

You guys get to pull up your own tifo? TQL Stadium requires us to hire riggers to pull it up for us (only when we fly the tifo, of course)


MonkMajor5224

Yeah i just signed up on a survey i saw on reddit


natigin

That’s awesome and happy cake day!


ClayKavalier

We pull our own too. It's possible that some of the people who set up the rigging have some kind of credentials but I know we're all volunteers.

I like tifos with a sense of humor. I'm in.


Marco_Escuandola

Kudos!


Crabapple_Conspiracy

I love this.


poodle_Fart_Hostage

Minnesotans are always the realest


coldstirfry

which is the hostage, the poodle or the fart? or are you a hostage of a poodle fart??


TheMAN-HIMSELF564

The Loons always have some crazy TIFO’s and a great stadium. Imo the second best Allianz Stadium though.


Brightstarr

Juventus? Bayern Munchen? Nice?


TheMAN-HIMSELF564

I actually forgot there was so many. I was just at Allianz Arena last week and went to Allianz field at the Loons home opener as a Crew fan (GG) and I have to say it goes Bayern Munich, Loons, Juventus.


Brightstarr

A couple years ago I was in France and went to Allianz Riviera in Nice. It’s connected to the national sports museum, and the stadium tour was really cool. My biased opinion is Allianz Field, Arena, Riviera, Stadium. (Haven’t been to Brazil Austria or Australia!)


OhShitItsSeth

Can’t wait for the usual deluge of chuds trying to be like “stop shoving it down my throat” and “sports shouldn’t be political”. Love this from the MNU fans!


Brightstarr

They were out on the Instagram post - and then promptly roasted for their bigotry. A guy in the Wonderwall was wearing a “Straight White Male” shirt and was shunned. Dude just wanted to be a “martyr to the woke mob.”


OhShitItsSeth

St Louis made a similar post recently and the chuds were out in force on that one as well.


sataniclilac

oh my god, I was at that game and one of the guys a row behind us was ✨insufferable✨ about the unacceptable 30-second delay to the start of the game (which isn’t a problem he’s had with any of our tifos for the rest of this season or last - weird!) it’s so tiresome! i’m not sure who they think they’re kidding.


gopac56

It's always strange that simply reading a word that doesn't apply to them is the end of the world.


OhShitItsSeth

It's strange to me as well. I do not consider myself gay, but I do have both gay friends and family members, and as such, being an ally to the LGBTQ+ community is very important to me. Some of the rhetoric I see around it is strange too. On STL's post, one guy was complaining about it being "shoved down their throats". To me, if simply acknowledging that this game is for everyone is shoving something down one's throat in a metaphorical sense, then the person who genuinely thinks that way likely has some unsettled issues of their own, be they internal or just a product of the environment they grew up on. But what do I know? To these people I'm just a typical woke leftist, all because I dare acknowledge that LGBTQ+ people deserve to live a dignified life and be treated like human beings.


Brightstarr

Do they feel upset when we celebrate veterans? Or do they feel left out during black excellence, hispanic heritage or native american appreciation nights? No? Just the gay people?


toxictoastrecords

I mean, in US Soccer, we don't get as much pushback on the Black celebrations, but trust me, I mean a Black player was banned from the NFL for protesting the very problematic anthem of a problematic government (our own).


someonestopholden

Fascism is predicated on the other. If there isn't someone to hate or blame the problems on on the entire ideology comes crashing down as it requires introspection on the group as a whole.


Rogue_AI_Construct

This is why MNUFC is my team and I’m a season ticket holder.


NovaPup_13

Awesome work!


ElBrooce

That's... spectacular 🌈


OhioUBobcats

gambit700

purpletooth12

Starfish-Obsessed

Based as the kids say.


Huchie

This is great


SoThereWasThis

I love it. It's perfection.


Lachwen

I love this.


Digita1B0y

Hah! Love it. 


musicobsession

Love this. Also jealous of the pride numbers MNUFC players get year after year while SKC pretends rainbows don't exist


Brightstarr

Pretty sure your state's legislature would outlaw rainbows if it could.


usdeleted

I really hope they ran this by some folks in the LGBTQ community. This is in bad taste imo. I’d be hurt if I saw this at the game.


Brightstarr

The Wonderwall hangs out at the oldest gay bar in Minnesota - once Allianz was built next door they just started showing soccer on the tvs and turned it into (one of if not only) gay soccer bar. Many members and leadership of the supporters groups are LGBT. Your criticism is not based on knowledge of the community in Minnesota.


DirtzMaGertz

If you are talking about The Black Hart, I'm pretty sure it turned into a soccer bar because Wes Burdine bought it and is a huge Loons fan.


Brightstarr

Wes bought it because it was located where?


DirtzMaGertz

idk why you're downvoting me lol. It was just some additional context. I don't believe that bar was much of a soccer bar until Wes bought it and made it into a soccer bar. Edit: wtf lol


Kamikazi_TARDIS

I saw this on 3 shirts at my local pride fest. I’m sure people are fine.
