All we wanted was beer snake and we let them hear it all damn game. We made legit like 10-12 snakes. Lowkey i was the one organizing the beer snake starting in pre game. I was telling people arriving to contribute tocthe beer snake, i told the sections next to us to contribute. It was going great until stadium people just took it away from us. It was bullshit. On that last drive, we finally got one big enough they couldn't take away.

    Context I posted in another comment:
    The one DC United game I've been to was the last game of the season (last season), there was a Beer Snake that was probably half the height of the supporters section is tall. It sparked a fight in the stands between two rival supporters groups because the older group was pissed about the newer group doing it. It was doubly hilarious to me because DCU was dreadful and it was the last game of the season in which they were getting smacked around (Final score of 5-2). The older supporter group could not handle lighthearted fun and thought all the fans present should be commiserating with the team.
    They both play in Audi Field so that could have something to do with it.
