I was once on a airplane from Hong Kong to Perth in Austrailia and the woman next to me, who I had never seen in my life, lived in the next street.
I was wearing my city shirt in the parks in Florida too but it was the year before i think. I was defiantly there when we lost to man u 3-4 I went with two man u fans and they were 4-1 up when we left and ****ting themselves as we were queuing for non other than the Tower of Terror
Although it's not exactly what the original poster asked, but I'm lucky enough to work with a lot of Japanese guys (absolutely great people). A number of them support a baseball team in Takasago called the 'Takasago Tigers' we've swapped shirts and I've sent them shirts and jackets over. They are very interested in soccer and watch the J league, so a number of them are now members of the Tiger Nation. So don't be surprised if you bump into a Japanese guy anywhere in the world with a Tigers shirt on. I've been drinking with them in Japan and they've worn the shirt! After that I've bumped into fellow supporters in Disney world, Portugal and Australia, if you've got a 10 year old son who lives in tigers shirts it always seems to find other Tigers fans and there are plenty spread far and wide.
I once bumped into a guy wearing a city shirt in the middle of no where, i think the town was called hornsea?? small world
LOL, I know mine sounds proper 'up myself' but hey it's true. I'll post a picture next time I'm over there. Fu'k knows when that'll be though given the state of the place, poor buggers
I met a large group of Hull fans when on a lads holiday in Ibiza, we were all staying at the same hotel and this was just after we had been promoted to the Premiership, so we had a lot to talk about!
i have seen tigers fans all over florida spain etc but the strangest place was in 2002 when going into the british embassy in tokyo someone shouted up the tigers after spotting my shirt and took off his cycling top with a city shirt underneath!!!
I was on my Honeymoon on a tiny island in the Maldives 2008. I was sat in the main bar with my city shirt on when in walks a bloke. Turns out is a city fan from Dunswell. Very small world
when? I have been there but not for a few year? strangest location for me was on the slopes at Whistler a few years ago.
On my way home from Brazil I had a long stopover in Santiago Airport in Chile and was surprised to find a group of English waiting to go to Peru .Amongst them were a young couple from Yorkshire who supported the Tigers. When I got home I bumped into an older couple in a beachside Cafe in Albany Western Australia who had only left Hull about 6 months before and they were both avid Tigers fans.
That wasnt a reply to your post, i thought id just put that in the mix lol I bumped in to a afghany wearing a tigers shirt whilst serving in afghan and i asked him if he was from hull or supported hull city and his reply was ".................."! I managed to get hold of someone who could speak pashtu and he said he found it in the middle of nowhere haha. Who has been dumping tigers shirts in the desert????
Well, the question was the strangest place! And in answer to when - it was November 2009, walking near the Long Bar
I know the strangest places I've seen people wearing Man United, Newcastle, Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool and Chelsea gear is - the KC. In the home stands. When we're not even playing those teams. I even saw a fan with a Plymouth hat on at one Premiership game FFS.
Well, here's a place for you to look up on Google Maps.I came to Canada in 1975 (a great place, by the way) and I live on the prairies in Regina (as Mick Jagger said when he was here performing his concert, "the place that rhymes with fun"), Saskatchewan. I was born in Hull and I AM A Tigers Supporter. Go Tigers Go!!!
