Sport/Culture: Question from the USA - is a Collingwood Magpies shirt appropriate?
Me: USA resident. I know very little about Australian Rules Football - I've seen a few matches, a few hours total. I'm also somewhat of a geek, nerd (maybe a boffin?) so I like crows, ravens, and magpies as they are some of the most intelligent birds around. Thus, I have a Collingwood Magpies t-shirt, might be getting a hat in the future. The magpie logo is great - I've used it for online profiles for games. Reading up on the team, I see they had a past reputation of racism, so would I be sending an inappropriate message by displaying the Pies' logo? I am pretty far from that political persuasion in the USA. EDIT: Thanks for your replies! It sounds like the 'Pies have an, ahem, somewhat distinctive and contrarian fan base. The USA has the "Raiders", recently moved to Las Vegas. Their fans show up to game in costume as if they are preparing for a post-nuclear holocaust themed riot. So that's where I am at the moment. Next round is on me, folks! ​
