1. Carlton
2. Anyone who barracks for Carlton
3. Books about Carlton
4. DVDs about Carlton
5. Websites dedicated to Carlton
6. Carlton Merchandise
7. The Age when Carlton wins

That'd be about it.

The ice-breaker you have when you meet someone "So who do you barrack for mate?"

Spoiler
The characters in the crowd.
Like the two old blokes sitting behind me at the gabba last night
who i overheard saying the following:

" mate you'll never guess who and what I just saw while I was in the beer queue..
i just saw macca (not real name) and his sister standing against the wall having a good old fashioned tongue wrestle!"

in case you're on TC blokes, I'm the bloke with spiky black hair in front of u on ground level in the fwd pocket (carlton section)
that we were commending T-Bird's forward success with just a touch of irony,
and the 'enigmatic Charlie Dixon'........

love the banter blokes u make the footy even better

:clap: :lol:

Was at a wedding on Saturday Night, had the phone out getting scores, looking around the room was 3 or 4 other blokes doing likewise. 2 of 'em were Blue Boys from Mildura, and the other 2 were from Melbourne & Cat fans....

Needless to say a lot of high five-ing as the goals were kicked :lol:

The fellow supporters i've become friends with in person.
Thats been invaluable to me going up in a non footy area.

Clint, Danielle, Shane, Paulie, Luke, Scotty, Liam, Charles, Andrew, Beck, Ness, Rich, Justin, PJ, Shaun etc etc - Mostly due to TC and TBV (RIP) - but ultimately because of our common intrest in the mighty football club.

Feeling apart of something truly special and important to so many others.

A sense of worth of being a 'blue'.

As hard as the past 7-8 years have been, sharing the joy in an against the odds victory is such a special feeling.

In a way that sense of joy has lessened somewhat until we start playing in and Grand Finals again.

BRING IT ON!

Was at a wedding reception Saturday night, and had the phone out for score updates, and the odd visit onto here, sort of hiding it under the napkin whilst I drank copious amounts of alcohol.

Went to the bar and saw a bloke at his table doing the same thing. Had a big smile on his face too.

Caught up with him later in the night and started talking footy, and he was a Bluebagger from Midura !

Had a good chat all things Carlton. I love that stuff !

when i meet someone at work who is from interstate or overseas and they dont follow footy, I tell them that as a Manager I have the right to dismiss people - therefore if you barrack for Carlton your job is safe.

At last count I have seven new Carlton supporters :lol:
