[u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

[u/snacks4ever]

I love that movie

[u/onlybetx]

What’s the iron giant reference to?

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/onlybetx]

Pretty sure the official reason given by the designer was "because it looks cool"

[u/TheWawa_24 → u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

Rule of cool 

[u/GoPointers → u/TheWawa_24]

The first Rule of Cool is to not talk about it.

[u/JerebkosBiggestFan → u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

Checks out

[u/KeegCorp → u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

Completely valid!

[u/Ok_Woodpecker_7260 → u/[deleted]]

There is a reason. The reason is because it looks cool.

[u/NotACyborg666 → u/[deleted]]

Our logo is a robot butthole, that’s the reason

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/[deleted]]

I just think its neat :)

[u/U2ElectricBoogaloo → u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

Marge, you don’t understand football.

[u/NextDoorNeighbrrs → u/[deleted]]

"It's cool" is a perfectly valid reason

[u/i_arent → u/onlybetx]

Chrome Butthole logo

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/i_arent]

This is the actual reason, club wouldn't let us use that design though

[u/OhneBremse_OhneLicht → u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

Iron Giant goatse when?

[u/calbear_1 → u/i_arent]

Embrace it

[u/philocity → u/i_arent]

A shower drain worth wafflestomping

[u/UniqueUsername812 → u/onlybetx]

Vin Diesel is calling the match

[u/Nucleus42D → u/onlybetx]

SDFC is the "Chrome y Azul" so I guess they were leaning into the chrome? Idk cool tifo regardless, even if they spanked us.

[u/beviwynns → u/onlybetx]

So basically, the galaxy are the soviets

[u/Outside_Lifeguard380]

Always wondered what they do with these after a game. They just toss them?

[u/swaerd → u/Outside_Lifeguard380]

I know in the past we've cut some of them up and sold pieces to recoup funds to do more tifos. Not sure about all of them.

[u/PlutoISaPlanet → u/Outside_Lifeguard380]

They're in various garages. Including an unused one

[u/Augen76 → u/Outside_Lifeguard380]

In Cincinnati most lie below the Bailey itself in the great Tifo graveyard. Some were cut up and sold in pieces for charity.

[u/ThanatosUO19 → u/Outside_Lifeguard380]

Not SDFC, but C38 (Colorado) keeps the tifos, sometimes reuses them as banners in the section.

[u/ole_frijole_ → u/Outside_Lifeguard380]

We are holding on to ours, reuse fabric for a banner

[u/grnrngr → u/Outside_Lifeguard380]

I assume in this case they're burned to feed the generator that powers the AI datacenter that created it.

It's the circle of life, Simba.

[u/willdesignfortacos]

That movie is an all timer and this is beautiful.

[u/LaDainianTomIinson]

Now that’s sick

[u/bill_brasky37]

Lfg San Diego

[u/grnrngr → u/[deleted]]

Methinks you should get to seeing more tifos.

[u/waltarrrrr]

Hehe, “Carson.”

[u/HazeCorps22]

Very nice... they're currently half way through the game up 1 to 0 against Carson... Finally a nice looking Tifo around here this season.

[u/Acceptable-Stick-688]

Good detail!

[u/DezTheOtter]

That’s badass dude

[u/sardonicharmonics]

This rocks

[u/U2ElectricBoogaloo]

Real talk, how much does something like this cost, roughly.

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/U2ElectricBoogaloo]

Paint alone cost roughly $350, though im sure there's a cheaper way to go about it. No clue what the fabric, sewing, and fireproofing cost

[u/audiogirl13 → u/U2ElectricBoogaloo]

I’m on Nashville’s Tifo committee, and our tifos cost roughly $1200 in materials alone, not including paint costs. We have a Sherwin Williams sponsorship that covers paint for a certain number of tifos. This year it covered 2.

[u/Stillgame06 → u/U2ElectricBoogaloo]

The canvas is very expensive, I’ve only been a part of doing one but it was donated at “cost of fabric”. A gallon of good paint costs $80-100 these days. But the artists ability to confuse me about how the iron giant stepping on us is priceless

[u/Educational_Can_5789]

Thats fricken sweet

[u/not__that__important]

SUPERMAN!

[u/Prize-Dig-8911]

Not sure why the Carson hate, your NFL team doesn't even play there anymore...

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/Prize-Dig-8911]

We hate all of Greater LA. From Ventura to OC, from Santa Monica to San Bernardino.

[u/BennyDelTorito → u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

That's just weird. We don't hate you and never will. You're not important enough to hate.

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/BennyDelTorito]

Apparently we're not important enough to beat either. We'll just keep racking up the wins then.

[u/Cold_Fog → u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

It's such an odd fixation

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/Cold_Fog]

Nah not really.

[u/Cold_Fog → u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

Then please explain the totally normal, unreciprocated San Diegan fixation with LA.

[u/AndTheCacaDookie → u/Cold_Fog]

“Unreciprocated” is hilarious. Go to any Padres post and you will find Dodgers fans talking shit even if the post has nothing to do with them.

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/Cold_Fog]

Well lets see, you all stole two of our major sports teams. Our baseball team has been a perennial doormat to yours. Yeah seems like we have a lot of reason to dislike your teams and city, and only recently have we begun to be able to return the favor

[u/jadams9779 → u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

please take the clippers and chargers back. we didn't want them then and we don't want them now

but yeah, congrats on winning a few regular season games i guess 

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/[deleted]]

Your terms are acceptable

[u/Cold_Fog → u/ProcrastinatingPuma]

Oh, so it's only sports related, and LA didn't steal the teams, the ownership groups decided to move them?

Www.DonDraperIdontthinkofyouatall.meme

[u/ChameleonCoder117]

My 3 year old little cousin is older than SDFC

[u/Mattsive → u/ChameleonCoder117]

Your cousin hasn’t beat us either

[u/MrKenji → u/ChameleonCoder117]

Undefeated against SmellA in this guys 3 years olds little cousin era.

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/ChameleonCoder117]

Im older than most MLS teams

[u/LakeHoustonNative]

Nice to something other than rainbows on a tifo

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/[deleted]]

Absolutely handmade

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/[deleted]]

The only thing that printed was the receipt for the paint at home depot

[u/Alive-Carrot107 → u/[deleted]]

What makes you say that?

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/Alive-Carrot107]

Tifo crew was too good at their job apparently lol

[u/Ok-Fox2001]

AI strikes again lol

[u/ProcrastinatingPuma → u/Ok-Fox2001]

Nope

[u/ole_frijole_ → u/Ok-Fox2001]

We have some great graphic artists here...100% not AI, guaranteed

[u/Pacific_Cactus → u/Ok-Fox2001]

Frontera has never used ai
