The Death of my PRIDE hoodie

[SNIDELY WHIPLASH]

Over the years I've bought mucho MMA gear, most of which I've either outgrown or it somehow got ripped or torn. Sometimes I've repurchased things I've lost along the way, like this.....

I never considered any alternative meaning back in the day, I was just an MMA fan first.....but while wearing this recently I had an eerie thought....

I live in NYC so people don't know the damn difference between the above and the below. This is a gay-friendly town so you'll likely see stuff like this.

....BUT I don't think I'll be wearing it on the street anymore.

*sigh*

Come out of the closet and wear it with PRIDE, Abe.

Apparently I've been gay since October 11, 1997.

 

[Greek777]

Lol, I have a shirt with the exact same design that I have worn out a few times in regular, non MMA oriented environments. If other people think that's what it means, I just hand them yellow cards and suck their dick

You're always the selfless giver. I admire your heart bro!

Gaybe Froman?

How Ironic

One doesn't have enough Pride to wear a Pride shirt.

I love my PRIDE T, wear it often. I fully know OPs situation but less fucks are given it seems and BC has a big geh community. If I get any strange looks I instantly work for back position while whispering "time to dominate".

I'll go with that.

I love how the tone in this post drastically changed during that last sentence LOL

 

[Anno Domini]

This forum is great haha! I never even once thought about a Pride shirt be interrupted as gay pride. Well if i seen the rainbow it would be obvious though. Think it would have made difference if it had said Pride FC?

 

[SNIDELY WHIPLASH]

Yea, PRIDEFC is a different thing altogether. I would've gotten that one if I thought about it LOL

 

[D241]

Almost Abe, almost.
