I got banned from a scottish pub wearing a melbourne scarf , all football scarfs are banned there to avoid fights from rival fans, tried to explain it was aussie rules but the bouncer said no and i thought discretion was the better part of valour

Btw there is degrassi high thread re the footy jumper from a year or so
 
A donkey Dumpling resaurant near a farming community in Shandong province, China. I was a pissing into a trough with pigs and dogs enjoying the slop, turned to an American bloke I was with and mentioned how surreal the place was and how lucky we were we hadn't chosen the pork when a local walked past in an Essendon jumper.

I gave the owner of the place my Demons scarf. Can't have the Bombers outnumbering the mighty Dees.

I've actually given out more than 20 Demons scarves and 10 jumpers in China in very out of the way places to the oddest of people.
 
torrevieja, spain, a bloke wearing a hawks jumper, tried to have a chat but my spanish is terrible, all i could understands was hawks.

and by the way, i don't think you can count london as the strangest place, so many aussies over here and the fact there is the BARFL (british austrailan rules football league) you frequently see footy jumpers floating around the tubes, on commons and especially at the slug and walkabouts.
 
come on, give me something off the beaten track of london, world cup soccer, any sporting event involving australia and expats/tourist wearing their own jumpers. you have to have seen it, not been it.
november 2006. driving to oaxaca from cancun mexico, hitchiker on side of road wearing carlton jumper with red mayne logo on it. needless to say we didn't stop.:cool:

I was teaching a class of Afgani & African refugees in London and one of them had a photo on the front of his book of an African singer/rapper in a swans jersey on stage. Damned if i know who he was cause the student was newly arrived and couln't speak English.

I also saw a guy in Genoa, Italy in a shop with a Hawks Jersey on. Tried to ask him about it but no one in Genoa speaks English and my Italian is rubbish!
 
The drummer in Paul Kelly's band used to religiously wear an Essendon jumper on stage in the 80's.

I'm sure there are plenty of other muso's who wear their footy gear on stage, I just can't remember atm.
 
Saw a man wearing a Carlton jumper at the MCG ANZAC DAY game 2007. I am not sure if he made it home alive but I give him 10/10 for balls!!!!:thumbsu:
 
about 6 years ago at Rod Laver Arena for the K1 Kick boxing ernesto van hoost from south africa came out wearing an essendon jumper.Suffice to say was going for the other guy after that
 
Wearing your footy guernsey to Wimbledon or even O/S Test matches is such a bogan ugly Aussie thing to do.

Give us a break, what the hell is wrong with that??? Whats wrong with a bit of national pride by wearing an AFL jumper? I see many British backpackers over here wearing Man Ure and Liverpool tops!

And a lot of them are bogan ugly poms. At least Soccer shirts and Rugby Tops have some semblance of fashion or style to them, Aussie Rules guernseys are designed for playing in and not much else. Do you wear your footy guernsey in everyday life? Doubtful. But it's okay to wear them to an unrelated sport just to say I'm a w***er from Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth or whatever and I barrack for a team that you've probably never heard of and the chances are pretty high that I'm gonna get loud, drunk and obnoxious. Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, Oi, Oi,Oi......
 
i was there, and there were. hawthorn and west coast jumpers in stuttgart

i used to see quite alot of AFL gear on the tube in london, too. there was a guy always wearing an crows jacket who used to take the northern line the same as me in the morning rush hour, he noticed me watching freo games on my ipod once and said hi.

was also there. to be honest I probably saw one or two. The sea of yellow kind of drowned the rest out. Plus I wasn't sober on any of the days I was there.

On the same overseas junket. Although not a footy jumper, I saw a guy with a footy hat with 'Sherrin' emblazed on it. Not only that, this guy was my Year 9 English teacher, and saw him outside Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. He also taught me at a school called Notre Dame. Off topic I know, but still freaky.

I'm far, far from a bogan. But I regularly wear my Collingwood jumpers around. If you're really that caught up in "fashion or style", maybe you need to rethink you priorities, there is more to life. :thumbsu:

And why would you assume that everyone who wears a footy jumper is a "w***er", who is "loud and obnoxious"? That is a very large generalisation, an inaccurate. It's called passion - whether it be for your club, or the sport, or for the country... it's merely displaying that passion. Loosen that tie a little chief.
