NYCFC Social Media Thread

[Gotham Gator]

I was at the game with my son, who happened to be visiting from upstate (he’s 21 and just graduated from college) and was reminiscing about how I was at the 2015 opener with my daughter, who was 13 at the time. Both times shared a chicken bucket. Both times ice cold fries by the second half. Things change so much in 10 years, and they don’t change at all.

Gotham Jr. ordered a Chicken Bucket at halftime, and there was much mockery directed at the french fries - both in quality and quantity.

The team sent a survey about this, too. So this isn't just idle social media stuff, it seems they are considering a mascot.

I, personally, don't think we need a mascot. But that's just me.

as much as i think a pigeon is probably the most accepted one and it was a choice that grew organically, i do like the suggestion of the bodega cat. haha that is as NY as it gets. Not sure how you'd make a cat a bodega cat though... cozying up with a chopped cheese?

Yeah I liked that one too. Pretty unique too right? Even aside from the bodega, how many teams have a cat as a mascot? Not a lion, tiger, etc just a cat

They're gonna add the pussies to the smurfs.

I saw a bodega cat beat the shit out of a dog the other day (although technically it was a flower shop cat). My neighborhood also has a health food store cat, and a nail salon cat named Mimi, neither of which you would EVER want to fuck with.

We've got a hardware store cat up near my town in Westchester.

The squad of a pigeon, bodega cat, pizza rat, and central park squirrels.

They can call us anything they want* and it won’t bother me until they have a cups-per-seasons-played ratio higher than ours. They had 20 years to conquer the city…

*except Nazis.

I've noticed Villa starting to show up more in recap/review pictures. I'm curious if this is based on lots of people complaining that they erased him. For example the Revs 10 year win photo has a Villa celebration.

I'm for it personally, it's our history. It's just interesting that after Brad's comments the other week, it seems to have changed a bit.

digital team slacking lately. the twitter feed barely had any post game posts or photos like they usually do and now we have this on the club webpage:

I've never felt older.

"Those dang kids with their music and their long hair and their bellbottoms. You can't tell the girls from the boys, and they'll just trip all over themselves with all that ridiculous wasted fabric on the bottom of those silly pants."

And bellbottoms are coming back, baby!
