So having gone to my first game in a long time this past Sunday, I noticed how different things had different color schemes around the stadium. Dorinstance the walls where blue with the logo, the program was blue, but their home jerseys are red/white, no blue to be found. Also any Fan banners where usually Red/white with the exception of the Metro ones.

So my question is what the hell is out main colors? I know blue is used as a secondary color when we play away, But then again thats not usually the main team's color and its nowhere to be found on our home kits.

I think you just answered your own question.

How? I mean if red/white is our main color, shouldnt the walls be red and white? Instead of blue?

It seems Philly fans have signed up on metrofanatic to vote for themselves (in 'What team do you hate more?') . No real fan of this team would vote anything other than DC.

I believe our main colors are blue and white. Red was only used last year to make the transition from Metro to Red Bull a little easier. I think red is the alternate color right now.

Red Bull's main colors are blue and silver. The logo, of course, has red, white and yellow in it, but it's meant to be on a blue or blue and silver field. Take a look at their F1 cars. This is, of course, where they spend the vast majority of their sports-related moneys:

Well, that's last year's car, but you get the idea.

Personally, I like what they do with their Toro Rosso team, which has a deeper red, and a darker gold, not as much of a yellow as the standard:

That's also last year's car. I can't seem to find any good images of the new ones.

Well I think Salzburg used to have Blue home unis and maybe the NY outfit was gonn change to that style next year but from what I've seen the Austrian side are useing home whites as well.


I guess all the Blue around the stadium is because the parent companies main color is blueand silver and the white and red on the pitch could be due to the teams official name the Red Bulls, I like that their is stll some red in the home uni.thats somewhat a connection to the clubs history. ;)
I just want Metro to win a title sometime in my lifetime.

i realy dont care if the main color is blue, my brother and i have spent to much on red and white material for the banners and flags so im stickin with these colors. Unless red bull is willing to give up some cash for new flags and banners or donate some, were stuck with the ones we got.

You're doing fine. Stick to the colors on the flags you made. Effort was made to make 'em, you've earned the right to show out with 'em, no?
