ECS Tifo 2018

Clint's legacy with the Sounders will never be forgotten. From the days of Dempsey Watch to the amazing connection with Oba. Winning the double in 2014 with the US Open Cup and Supporters Shield, the goals, the assists, the amount of shit he tried. The heartbreak of his broken heart, the triumph of the MLS Cup Championship. His handshakes and coaching of the club's youth.

To honor his retirement our tifo features Clint's face on 75 foot diameter circle. He is surrounded by laurels, like the Texas state seal. The star at the bottom represents the 2016 MLS Cup that Clint won with the Sounders. And you counted the laurel leaves, right? Over 6000 cards filled the Brougham End to surround Clint in a field of blue and green.

We had just 76 hours from the time of the retirement announcement (Wednesday 9am) to kickoff (Saturday 1pm), and we were all out to get this project designed and produced. Production took about 8 hours, with over 50 volunteers coming out to participate.

As always, tifo projects like this aren’t possible without the help of our volunteers and we’d love you to get involved. For more information and email updates, check the tifo production box on our volunteer form and follow ECSTifo on twitter.
