Think the Section O heads should go on a fact finding mission and bring them Lightning Girl ladies over for the 2nd leg! purely for educational purposes! :cool:

also from that site.... think there are one or similarities going on here...

Around 7:00pm CST time there is a buzz in the air. And that "buzz" is the Section O crew walking into the Arena ready to rock and roll and cheer on the Storm! You can spot us right away- going straight to the wristband counter, preparing to purchase the oh so cheap beers at the beloved Arena. : After the Section O crew gets our bands, we make our way over to the beer stand, and start stocking up on the ice cold glasses of beer. We normally like to make our entrance before the National Anthem, but it depends on how long it takes in the beer line!

Once we get settled in, we grab the rosters and scout out whom on the opposing team has the funniest name so we can make fun of him. We always find the kickers name too, so we can heckle him on every kick. Occasionally a few of the Storm players will look up to Section O and make the big O symbol with their arms above there heads. That gets us even more pumped, and we get louder! We try to get the rest of the crowd into the game even more with our chants and cheering. Throughout the game we continue to harass opposing players waiting for one to give us some signs we are getting under their skin. From that point on, he will be hearing it from us the rest of the game. We feed off making the opposing players angry and forgetting about the game at hand. We consider ourselves the 9th man. By the end of the game, most of us have lost our voices. We use what we have left to let their coach know he needs to "Start the bus" or its time to "nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah, hey hey hey GOODBYE". If they are higher in the standings, then we let them know they are "OVERRATED"!

and the best bit coming up. This is spooky.

Section O, it seems, is a place either people hate or love. We apologize up front if we might be too rowdy but we are just trying to help the team!! Remember, REAL FANS STAND!

these guys probably know nothing about 'soccerball' but cant fault the support! weird or what...
