Wrestlemania (yes, wrestling) in Atalanta, Georgia, USA.

Nice big red and white Wigan flag shown right at the beginning of the show in the crowd.

If i was smart enough, i'd upload the picture onto here from my phone, but i'm clueless!

Still great to see!

We're taking over the world. In a similar scenario, I work on the biggest cruise ship in the world; Royal Caribbeans 'Oasis of the Seas' and we get ESPN Caribbean.. Well, one of the football commentators for a spanish league soccer game remarked;

"they should play the game rugby league style, treat him when the game is still continuing.."

That was pretty pleasant to hear!

I remember being in Florida in 2001, and getting into the lift at a Sea World attraction, only to turn round and see an ENTIRE family kitted out in Saints tops and baseball caps.

You go all that way, and you're STILL surrounded by Sintelliners! ;-)

I was in Uganda 2 years ago and came across a little kid wearing an old Wigan top. And I donated another one to another kid there. So 2 little wiganers in Uganda!

There was also a 'Purple Aki' sign there as well, which I popped for.

Been watching it this morning and saw that. Re-wound it and paused it on the sign to make sure I'd read it correctly.

There was a Purple Aki flag at Glastonbury a couple of years back and Liverpool fans have one which says 'Purple Aki, do you want to feel my muzzy?

I think the South Stand gantry lacks a Purple Aki inspired banner to be honest. If George Formby can have one I can't see why not?
