Flames red towels in the crowd?

I know some people might think we are copying other arenas, but how amazing would the C of red look with fire red towels instead of the flimsy thundersticks that some people bang around? Thoughts?

Ugh no.

The whiteout looks cheesy. (White looks like a bunch of under-shirts). The towels make it worse.

No towels.

No accessories.

Use voice.

Wear red!

Who remembers our 2004 towel attempt with the orange home depot towels?

It was awful!

This sums it up, in my mind. I would also like to add no Heritage Classic jerseys. It's the C of Red, Not the C of Harry Potter look alikes!

After creating the C of Red and Red Mile there is no need to adopt some lame ass quitter ritual.

Sounds about right. People had so many toys in their hands to deal with that it ended up being the quietest game of the playoffs I recall.

We were given red towels in the stands in the early 90s that year we lost to San Jose in 7, I still have it somewhere. It looked pretty cool at the time I thought.

Red towels have been done before, I still have mine in a box somewhere from either 1995 or 1996 playoffs, the slogan was STOMP! if anyone remembers what season that was.
