I saw this on Twitter. What is a FAU Hootigan?

I had the same question. Hopefully someone can clear it up.

Looks like an Owl Rangers-type of deal.

It's an official thing athletics started, they started a fb page, looks like they have out t shirts today

Just another genius thing to add to the list produced by our athletics department.

Every day I cringe when I see the schedule magnet on my fridge from two seasons ago with that embarrassing "Get ready, 'cause here we come!" motto. We, of course, had been around for 10 years at that point.

They sent out messages saying "come get your free Hootigan shirt" to students.

I get what they're trying to do. Trying to build a student section and this method helps.  I'm not a fan of the design but free shirts are free shirts.

I also don't know how the Owl Rangers guys feel about being represented as the face of the Hootigans on their Twitter page... but I'm sure they'll work it out.

I did notice an uptick in the number of people who are proud to rep FAU even in our losses.

If we're gonna be hootigans we need to start acting like it!

Create a full fledged firm that has a go with the other teams firms every weekend, I say we put OC40 in charge.

Ever seen Green Street Hooligans? I believe it's based on the West Ham vs Millwall rivalry.

Of course!    great flick, minus Elija Wood. Any self respecting Brit has o know that film. Luckily I support Southampton and no one is passionate enough to fight someone over that shite team!

I lived in London a few years back and the first brits I befriended were all Tottenham supporters. Spurs fans are passionate enough just not strong enough.

Ah that's great, Spurs have recently gained in popularity, loads of famous Americans are supporters of theirs, I guess like the LA Clippers in recent years. Aaand and we've officially hijacked a thread hope you guys learned something!
