A long time ago some Seattle supporters made a legendary mistake on their tifo, accidentally spelling out “Bule and Green” instead of “Blue and Green.” Somewhere along the line, Seattle Coach Sigi Schmid’s ample girth became the subject of banter between informal supporters groups, and somehow Sigi became associated with a hunger for pies. In perfect storm, someone created a 2-stick with a caricature of Sigi’s face and the words “I’m Bule. I’m in Need of a Pie.” This 2-stick was a comforting sight at every derby match, one that surely had a lot of people scratching their heads. The two stick could have gone on forever, except Sigi got fired in the middle of the 2016 season. This patch was created to preserve the legacy of that beautiful meme.
