August meme, Day 23

[thismaz]

I live in the black and white corner of the country. By which I mean, I live in the territory of the Toon Army (pronounced as one word). By that I further mean that the local football team's strip is black and white stripes. The Toon (town) Army is the collective noun for our local football supporters

*g* The Toon get everywhere. I used to live behind the Other St James's Park (Exeter City's home ground) - they also played in stripes, red ones, but it was a rare home game when there weren't a few Toons dropping by out of curiosity to see the other place!

I imagine it helps that Newcastle's black and white is not a common theme. But it is true, they are a dedicated lot.

Famous anything sounds like an introvert's nightmare, LOL. I would prefer to be the nobody that works in the background but still collects a nice paycheck, thank you.

That would be a very good compromise *g*

I would like to see that Toon Army fan!

He was just a guy with a beer belly and a dog, but the hair was striking. I like to think he's looked like that since the 70s, but I guess it might have been a recent bet, or sponsored dare *g*
