The ISA will be hosting a tifo-making session next Tuesday evening at Toyota Park from 6pm to 9pm (inside the stadium). Here's what we're offering to do and what we need you there for:

1) Got a great idea for a banner but don't have the time, money or manpower to get it made? We will pay for the materials and get made one lucky banner design posted here or emailed to communications@section8chicago.com.The plan is to hang it from the terrace, so dimensions of something like up to 5x20ft will work, but we will consider alternative ideas (though nothing too big). We'll purchase all materials and get it made at the tifo session....hopefully with help from some of you. Submit your design by Monday at 6pm.

2) The ISA is paying for a large four-section tifo that will be displayed at the Harlem End next game. We need your help putting it together. It's VERY simple, no skills or equipment needed from you.

3) Tifo-workshop. Experienced folks will be on hand to help guide you or answer any questions about how to make a 2-pole or other banner.

4) Flag-making: we'll provide poles and tools if you have a flag you want to attach (most of you must have a flag by now).

Where: Toyota Park
When: Tuesday, November 3rd, 6-9pm
Who: Everybody

Again - come up with any banner design and post it here or email it to us. We'll pick one lucky winner on Monday night. Please participate -- let's fill the section with banners and flags for the playoffs.

My idea that I think would be awesome (though might be a bit niche) would be a portrait of McBride, half of his face torn off and have Iron Maiden's Eddie (in cyborg form like below) underneath (ofcourse there could be a bit of creativity to make it more unique, but still keep it recognizable as Eddie). With "Brian McBride" written in Iron Maiden font.

Designs aside, we also need a few bodies to get this done. Who can come and help out? Who can offer a ride from the city?

update - park by the main arch and head for the gate D lobby. We'll be there from 6pm to 9pm.

5pm's fine.

Hope a few more can make it too.

Any last minute banner submissions, ideas? Just text is fine too. We'll give it an extra hour or two in case someone is inspired.

THE Mike banner.

This one is incredibly overdue.

May I also suggest a remake of the long-faded and retired "LA MAQUINA ROJA" banner? And perhaps a "STRAZACY" one too?

Well yeah. The Full Power one needs to be remade, desperately.

The crest needs an update, but it's otherwise ready-to-go.
