What is this all about? Not making an issue or comment. I am legitimately asking what sort of parody this is.

Eta: never mind. I would guess it is some sort of lacoste spin. I still have no idea why this symbol is relevant to an NYC supporter club.

It's the Lacoste gator

@TommyM may be able to better explain, but I think it's a throwback to casuals.

We used to use a skull & crossbones emblem. But Lacoste is a big casual brand, and it got incorporated as a joke, on a sticker we did around 2000 or so. It's also kinda how Fred Perry laurels end up in every Oi band ever's album art. It's also got blacked out eyes, like every "we're so cool" crew photo you've ever seen a supporters group do.
