Reasons Why Robin is Barney's Bride

[j5fan1]

Hi everyone! I'm a long time lurker, but first time poster. I have been a fan of this pairing since S1's "Zip Zip Zip."

Over at my new journal, I've posted 62 reasons why I think Robin is Barney's bride (including some speculation and three minor spoilers). I've clearly marked the spoilers, so you can easily avoid them if you want to remain

I don't think the color is necessarily a stretch. It could be coincidence or it could also be deliberate. They have associated the Mother (Ted's one) with the yellow umbrella, so having Robin in a yellow raincoat (not a typical look for her) during the scene that helped start the events leading to Barney's Robin is the One epiphany could very well be a subtle hint.

I took it as a deliberate hint. The others raincoats were very dull colours - Robin's stood out so much.

roxy_1991, I added what you said about Robin's raincoat standing out compared to the others' drab colored raincoats in reason #16. I gave you credit for mentioning this so thank you.

Spikesaa, I included some of what you said in your comment in my reasoning for #16 to strengthen my argument. So thanks!
