So... long manicured beards, Local brewery brew in hand, everyone is a bro, flip flops with surfer/skater shorts and a hoodie?

Cause thats the authenticity this city provides. LOL.

Case in Point: OKC. They are the crowd that probably does this the most. And look at them, a bunch of white bread cracka hicks that don't know shit about hoops.

Cheer cheer cheer. Yay yay ya. I look like I just came from a PTA meeting and I'm a die hard fan.

Fuck that, Portland Trailblazer Fans are GUTTAH AS FUCK, KID.

I hate those things with an unbridled passion. One of the most annoying sounds in the history of the world. Whenever Ive gotten them, I've thrown them on the ground until the end of the game and then threw them away as soon as I could.

Use your voice. (Hopefully you know this isnt directed at you lol)

the voice is a muscle that can only be used for so long before it gets sore and cant handle it anymore. Being a singer I understand this full well. Ill bang on shit every chance I get before I blow out my voice in the first quarter to not be heard for the rest of the game.

Very few people have @Chris Craig endurance. LOL.
 
I’d like to see a psychologist work with the pr department to design tees to give out for people to wear behind the opposing teams free throw basket. Perhaps give people shirts that together make a diagonal line or some other way to fuck the senses of the opponents. Let’s get modern and organized in our matching if it’s going to happen at all.

Likewise, everyone behind the blazers basket should just wear solid white tees.

Except the Free Throw Guy!
 
I get it,long standing rule don't rock the concert "T" til after the concert. When I go I always wear my own gear and go to pick up new. The "T's" they give out are the cheapest and will shrink the first time you wash them and bleed all over your other laundry.
That being said this is the playoffs and it is their way of saying thank you for being a fan. It is the playoffs I would rock the shirt,any other time "meh". So while I respect your opinion to not wear the shirt because you think people are conforming but when in reality it is because they believe in something and they are showing their support for it. It is a Basketball game not a religious cult.

I think its bush league, personally. The best part of Portland's crowd is the individuality. People busting out their 90s gear to prove they ain't bandwagon bitches is dope as fuck, son.

Hell yeah. I wore my '99 black Pippen jersey and my Reebok Kamikazes on Sunday. The dream of the 90s is alive!

Ive got almost 20 shirts in the last five years. Some better than others but ive never had the colors run or fade after a wash.

I think what kills it is 90% of the shirts are smalles and larges when half the crowd is xl or larger. They only let season ticket holders exchange for a size that fits.
Ive complained to my rep about this one. Not so much for myself but for everyone else. Doesn't seem right and counter productive if they want everyone to wear them.
Who is gonna out a small shirt on an xl with a beer gut?
Well, in portland maybe a few more peeps than other cities, but you get my drift...
 
yeah...the new cool though is to be uncool....I used to think old retired couples with the matching sweatsuits was lame...now I'm finding myself drawn to the pajama people fashion sense. and have found myself wearing black socks with sandals which is very German touristy of me.

I'll yell all night. Opponents average 4-5 missed throws a game off of me yelling when I am there.

Switch to Blazer Ponchos, make em all big one size fits all!
 
"Lame" might be a bit strong. But I'm going to come down on the side of Portlanders showing their individuality and non-conformist culture. Let other team's fans look like glassy-eyed sheep.

:cheers:

And forget about Thunder Sticks, or posters of Rachael Welch. Put the hottest ladies behind the Nugget's basket, and have them shake their assets.
 
I think some chick behind the bench last game had some pit hair.

Portland Fucking Oregon. Yeahhhhhh

Coordinated optical illusion t-shirts. That's awesome.
