I give them credit for this bit, but it was like way past it's prime.

I bet 90% of their fans had no idea why they even did it, not one of the players that had anything to do with the "HOGS", are even with the team anymore in any role

It was a one season stunt, to perpetuate it is just foolish. "Don't stop believin'"

They can take the Dawg Pound and the Black Hole with them!

They would be perfect guest conductors at Wrigley Field for the seventh inning STRETCH!

Stupid fan themes/groups is what makes football great. People who get mad about this shit take themselves too seriously.

See, the Bears don't have any of that shit. It's so sterile @ Soldier_ Field. No Cheerleaders, no goofy fan clubs. I wonder if that guy who used to yell into the big megaphone is still around. I'm sure the Park District thugs took him out back & roughed him up. Probably buried under the N end zone.

The singing of Beardown, Blues Brothers costumes, Ditka 'staches, fat guys with no shirts. All goofy shit but makes the NFL great.

Soldier Field is a mostly silent, drunken call to a sports radio station. Silence, scream something stupid. Silence, scream something stupid. Unless the Bears are in the red zone.

This I could do w/o. Nothing goofy about this, just the average Chicagoan. :wink: :P

If it wasn't for Samoa, we'd be #1 in average lbs./person.

My favorite is this guy:

He was called "Helmet Guy" and had a drum that he would beat on during the Chiefs games. He was also in the witness protection program for testifying on behalf of the federal government against two criminals in the 1993 WTC bombing.

Crazy article here if you want to read the details: http://www.kansascity.com/2012/09/14/38 ... sight.html

He's a midget, & there's a stool in the barrel, so he's always sitting down.
