Would you urinate on your teams colours, for $1000
 

Whatever your main team is, whoever you identify yourself more than anything else, as a fan of - would you piss on a jersey of this team; if you were offered $1000 to do so (and your friends and family and work colleagues would find out about it)

For me, before anything else I suppose I am a fan of Norwich City Football Club - and as much as I could use the money, I'd have to say I wouldnt. I'd piss on a Union Jack or St George's cross for 1000, but not a City shirt.

Hell yeah I would. I don't even follow sports anyway, so I wouldn't think twice about it.

If I did, I wouldn't live to tell about it.

Yes, but as I am not an avid sports fan, it's not really a fair question.

To be honest, Im not really sure I'd piss on a St George's cross - because it represents the England Rugby colours, and also England cricket and football.

Im pretty certain the Union Jack means nothing to me though, Im English not British

Not a chance in hell.

Now hand me a yankees jersey and I'll do more than piss on it.

No fucking way.

I am Baltimore Ravens fan, and similar to guccilvr said, if you get me a Steeler's jersey, I will pay you $20 bucks to piss on it. When tailgating a couple years ago, somebody had a charred Ben Roethlisberger on the ground for everybody to step on/stomp as they passed by.

I would piss on anything within reason for $1000.

hell yeah.. as long as i can piss on it without being punched in the head in the process

Doesn't Norwich wear yellow Strange? You could whizz on it and no one would notice.

Its strange...

In America people refer to sports teams in that way:

Doesnt Norwich....

But I would say

Don't Norwich...

==

I dont know what the difference in grammer signifies, but I still wouldnt piss on a City shirt.

Uh...yeah. I don't care how significant the team is, it's a piece of cloth with some dye. I'll take the $1000.

Give me a $1,000 and I would piss on any piece of fabric you'd like.

I've got a nice Canadian flag you could try on for size

Absofuckinglutely. I am, once again, a poor college student for the third time in my life.
Like Charlatan, I'll happily pee on any piece of fabric for a grand.

Sorry...orange just means too much to me!

The Beavers are orange and black, and orange is the Dutch national color. It ain't gonna happen for just a thousand bucks.

Nope, not pissing on a Leafs jersey, now give me a Senators jersey and then you'll see some unspeakable acts performed and it wouldn't cost a penny.

Now if I were a Lions or a Chiefs fan, then I'd consider pissing on those jersey's, the way their seasons went, piss is the least of their worries on some uni's.

I ain't got no job, it's Friday and I ain't got shit to do.

I'll piss on ANYTHING for $1,000 only catch is you pay any and all legal expenses associated with my arrest and legal proceedings when I get caught.

me first! me first!

edit: ok so i got excited a little bit, then i had a good think about it... i dont care so much for pieces of dyed material. i do however think that a level of respect should be shown to flags as emblems of a nation or country... so i'll take that back. i wouldnt like it if someone pisse on an aussie one or a lebanese one for that matter..so i rescind my comment

Without thinking twice. On pretty much anything.

Bring it on. It's why I said any piece of fabric. Symbols are just an idea. Fabric is just fabric.

But a $1,000 bucks can buy a lot of bread.

Yeah! I love that about English English. It sounds so weird to American ears to hear "And the crowd are going wild!"

Piss on it, wipe my ass with it, it doesn't matter. And you can extend the question to nearly any other symbol people worship for little or no reason.

Include the Bible or Qur’an in that if it is simply a matter of would you do it for money. But were it for the purpose of offending or simply angering someone I'd obviously rethink it.

You're all a bunch of filthy urine mercenaries!

Why don't you start a company called Yellow Water?

the grammatical difference is kinda interesting---uk english stages a team as a collective (a team is the people who comprise it), so it's plural. american english refers to the singular (a team). same goes for the city: a singular referring to a singular referring to a plural. american english has this quirk of opting for singular over plural whenever the chance presents itself--it's a simplified version of uk english. if you want to mess about with american english, make it do things, it seems the best way to go about it is to use that simplifying tendency and feed it back onto itself. but i digress.

sports thread.

would i piss on a team uniform for a grand?
why not?
i'd probably have to wait a few minutes for the machinery to kick into gear with a celtics uniform.
i'd have to think about the money, or maybe pretend that it was a national flag.

It depends on the situation, like how much my teammates would know about it. Would they know I'm getting paid to do so? Then yes. Or could they see it as a drunken accident? If not, then I highly doubt I would. I'd get the crapped kicked out of me if I did and lose a lot of camaraderie. But do I personally care? Not really. I've never put my emotions into an object and I see it as nothing more than that. I do see the symbolism involved in flags and such, but it's not possible to pee on something intangible.

It's a good question. But you need a third option on the poll (I voted no though, since it was the closest).

I understand the whole "it's a piece of fabric" thing, but those colors just represent a piece of me and all the pain and joy I've been through that has come with those colors.

Hell, I'll piss on anyone here for 1000 dollars.

Here in Houston there were (maybe still are) people who pay $1,000.00 or more to piss on Bud Adams.

Over and over.

I'm with filtherton, how many times can I get paid for doing it?

As for any piece of fabric- I wouldn't do so on a flag, US or otherwise.

Sometimes, a team deserves to get pissed on. It's a lasting symbol of my dissatisfaction with their subpar performance.

See that's interesting - to some people, the country they live in/were born in/originate from means more to them. For others, they identify a lot more strongly with their sports team than with their nation.

It's often been said that supporters of big football (soccer) teams in England would rather see their club team win a major title than see England win the World Cup.

Sure. I love my teams, but, hey... poor college student and all that. I think we tend to put too much emphasis on sports teams, anyway.

I'll cheer my teams on to victory in any game they're playing, and I'll trash talk right along with anyone else, but that's about where it ends for me.

I also have to take into account that the pro team members are making waaaaay more than I ever will. Even the college players are getting all sorts of benefits that I don't. I'd like to think they wouldn't begrudge me $1000 for something that doesn't mean all that much in the grand scheme of things.

Me too. It's a jersey.

The pee would blend right in to the gold.

Well, given that the USD dollar is about 1.30 AUD, this is almost 1400 for me. Bring it on! I suspect my workmates would see it as funny, and my family would want to share the cash.

Oz Flag - I'd probably not want to do this, but the cash might tip the scale.

You lot are pretty cheap. My whore values tend to be much higher.

Unless you get me drunk first ;)

KellyC would go RKelly on that shit.

Considering I ve spent well over $1000 in my lifetime following my favorite soccer team, I wouldnt do that at all. One because, for whatever reason, I am devoted enough to that team. It is a significant part of my identity, as I was one of the things that really brought me and my father together. And two, I am from one of those countries where soccer rivalries really mean something. And although I dont live there anymore, I visit and go to soccer stadiums often enough that if word of this ever got out, I would have to either never show up at a stadium anymore, or spend significantly more than that in security.
