[Albion] Balloon Avalanche

[GM98]

I can't see this has ever been done before at a football match. What if everyone let one blue balloon go as the teams came out? I know some will not want to take the trouble to go and get some, however for those who do, how about taking some extras and handing them out to others around you?

It would look great on tv.

If anyone can find this on a video at a football match, please feel free to attach to this thread.

Jelly and pass the parcel would be good as well.

Let one go as in to make the farty, raspy noise - or just let it go and watch it drop to the floor?

To have the desired effect I think you're hoping for - we'd need a helium canister at the end of every aisle.

If it was Palace we were playing, we could have played pin the tail on the Benteke.

No thank you! Liverpool (I think it was) had a bad experience with balloons on the pitch; I doubt they'll ever do it again, and neither should we!

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I'm just going to siit there in silence until the final whistle confirms that we have won. I'm not celebrating a nightingale's fart till then. Fact.

Is the right answer. NSC's grumpy old men are a very tough crowd when it comes to discussion of fan displays such as ticker tape and balloons etc

The OP can rest assured that this match for us is as much of a party day out as it is possible to conceive. The amount of blue and white balloons, streamers, beach balls, other inflatables, scarves, flags and CAPES in our half of Wembley is going to be legendary. Don't worry too much about what gets said on here - just load up with the necessary items and do your bit to contribute.

I'm going with 12 blue and white beach balls. £9.99 on ebay.

Save your money for the final,

Save your money for the final,

That's actually a valid comment. We'll look awfully tinpot if we act like the Semi is our Cup Final and also leave ourselves wide open to some 'taunts' from the Fauntleroys....

“Let one go as in to make the farty, raspy noise - or just let it go and watch it drop to the floor?” - to be honest, you really do not need a balloon to create that effect. You’ll find that happens at every home game in the West Upper concourse.

Anything to break the silence, I suppose...

I was only kidding. Do you think they'll let me bring my dog in?

If I remember the 1983 semi final , we had loads of balloons and streamers when the team came out , it looked super even the tv commentators mentioned , looked like a match in Argentina,
When Wednesday came out nothing apart from applause, I know what looked better

Think of the environment

Good shout. That welcome for Fozzie and the lads from the Albion fans at Highbury was amazing and not bettered since.

Anybody who looks down on us for treating a match against one of the highest spending clubs in the world as a ‘Final’ is an arse and not really worth bothering about, frankly.

It’s the perfect match for a party. If we did actually beat City, the Final itself would be a far more serious business.

How about an avalanche of blue whoopee cushions all going off at once, fresh as a Haha dive!
