Be watching here for more details in the coming weeks as www.GOALSeattle.com announces a Sounders flag-making contest in which the winner will be awarded...

A 2009 season ticket in the GA Supporters section! ($288 value)

Don't start your flag yet...we've got some rules for along the way. However, getting your fabric lined up sounds like a good plan!

Need some ideas? The flags below are NOT eligible for this contest because they were previously made, but they are pretty cool...

The thread on the ECS Forum was moved to a more fitting forum on the message board ;D

To give you a few more examples...

The first one gets 'street cred' for the spray paint look, but might not score well with judges because it took only a few minutes to make (I should know ;) ). The second one is really cool, but the club colors aren't 'bold' enough. The third photo has two flags that have (former) club colors and took time to make with cut-outs, applications, etc.

So, these don't have to be a traditional flag on a pole?
They can be flags, banners, overheads, 2poles, ect...?

I would say limit it to traditional flags on poles.

Rules on the way...

(but I'd say yes, actual pole flags you can wave are what we are looking for. The above pics are design ideas only. 'Banners' would not be flags.)

Got mine started; airborne. It's a little dim. Gotta love the after work, "oh-shit-it's-getting-dark" effort though.

*1/19 revision. Still damn dark. Can I get some sunshine!?! Little better. Will post a pic that looks better.

Cool! Take another one when it's lighter out. Is the flag black?

BTW, that think looks HUGE. You are really going to block some views with that one. ;D
