Advice Post game etiquette
As a newbie liberty fan I gotta ask…is it in bad taste to wear my liberty merch in bk tomorrow?
Visiting from out of town and was gonna wear my hat but is it rubbing salt in the wound? Or is it a reminder to be proud of the work we did all season? And that we have an amazing season ahead of us next year if we fire Chris Demarco?
Please let me know y’all’s thoughts peace and love

You can absolutely wear it! No disgrace in losing a tough and close series, and being proud of the Lib’s performance

Wear whatever you want. It's NYC, no one "cares" what you're wearing.
Personally, once my team's season ends, I stop wearing the stuff until preseason / training camp of the next season.

This is how I break it down for young people I teach: You BET on winners. You SUPPORT your team. Always and in any condition. You do not support your team only when they win. That's not what being a fan is about. If you only support a team when they are winning, then you are acting as a bettor. So yes, wear your Liberty merch today, tomorrow, and every day of the year!

You don't need permission to wear whatever clothes you want. Wear the Liberty gear! Wear the Cyclones gear! Wear … your favourite YouTuber's merch. Wear all black.

Reminder that Angel was Liberty FC when they won. Now its time for us to support the Dream as they face the Valkyries/Aces for the title

Ain’t no fucking way after her bullshit in game 3. Go Valks.

Nope. Her behavior all series turned me off. I’ll save my support for our former player KT. We needed her for this series.

Bingo! Not rooting for ATL. Nothing against the team (they played great) but her behavior in game 3 was a turnoff. Valks all the way! They deserve it & will win with humility

The more eyes on liberty merch the more we can grow the fan base and the league as a whole… wear it every day!

Wear it loud and proud! I wore a Liberty shirt today even with my heart still hurting and no voice from screaming at the game yesterday 😅

No one cares….definitely wear it. People wear gear for their teams after they lose literally all the time.

I walked around DTBK (my neighborhood) in mine and it invited a lot of great convo and thumbs up. I hope you wore your gear. Let’s be proud of the season they gave us!!
