Flares, No Problem?

[Dimi]

Turkish football fans have probably kept many flare companies in business over the years, but when the Turkish FA banned them from stadiums, their brand of pyromaniac fun seemed to be over.

The fans of Super Lig club Eskisehirspor had other ideas, though. In response to the decision, they unfurled a giant trollface banner equipped with holes just so they could light flares and hold them throughout the banner like flaming Swiss cheese. The one-word question on the banner: "Problem?"

The banner was then rolled back up, the flares were extinguished and everyone carried on singing and having fun. Brilliant.

How awesome is that?

Very very funny, and I'm not normally one to bring this up but.....

'elf and safety-wise this is a nightmare. If you look at the build process for the banner they don't even use fire-retardant material. It's a miracle (not the religious kind of course) that it didn't go up.

i was waiting for the banner to be set alight and then a new guinness world record to be set for the world's biggest turkish kebab.

Respect to the Eskisehirspor fans very funny.
