Ah, good times.

The ESC brought a large pile of ruckus to Philly, and dumped it right into the Union’s backyard.

Lead by Flip, Menace, Matrim & others, 50 plus NYRB fans sang in full voice, again showing everyone how it is done.

From singing down the local team, to sharing some love with DC, to talking down the 4 Sounders fans who were trying to talk smack (wrong coast, yo), it was a great day.

It started in Newark with the bus (thanks again, MLS/RBNY) from the ‘other’ Penn Sta. to Philly, where we were dropped off right into the middle of a Chris Albright sighting.

From there it was into our seats & in front of the cameras for an hour plus of standing & signing.

Whether it was cheering on our draft picks, getting a waive from the NYRB coaching staff, or just bending an elbow at the beergarden, it was a great day all around. We didn’t get Duka, but we got Tchani, De Luz and 3 other players in addition to Chris Albright, and we are making progress towards our squad for this year.

Maybe the best thing to come out of the day was getting RIGHT in front of our coaching staff to let them know exactly how much we care about our team, and making it a success.

We hope that all of the members that took part enjoyed the event, that those who didn’t make it down try to get in on the next one, and that everyone is really excited for a great year in 101 in 2010.

We need you to help us rock it, no two ways about it. So make sure you are there, home and away, to share in great days like this.

Thanks again, all.
