NorthAmericanOwl Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Basically from the title have you ever been in a part of the world and randomly met a Wednesday fan? For me 6 years ago at welding company in Barrie,Ontario. Got the job and was introduced to a bloke called Dave who was my mentor at the time from Bradfield who loved Wednesday as much as me. Was a great relief to have a colleague with something to talk about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrightyowl Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Got chatting to a lad in a hotel bar in Mumbai as I noticed his Sheffield accent. Dead nice kid he was over doing a night at a comedy club & he sorted us tickets. Tom Wrigglesworth he was called, funny as fuçk. Slipped a WAWAW into his act. It was the day Man City pipped Man Utd to the prem as I remeber getting texts from a few Manc pals, so a few years back. pretty boring story that, soz! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had Tom at the comedy club I was running last year. Fantastic comic, didn’t realise he was a wednesdayite. I bumped into “ carrots” who many will remember from the 70/80s in Barbados a good few years back. Had a good old reminisce about the old days.

Dizzys Dad Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 June 1979, I was with 3 mates , in the middle of nowhere, looking over a barrier into the Grand Canyon. I had a Wednesday patch on the back of my shorts. We noticed a group of about 12 approaching us all wearing Stetsons. As they got nearer, one of them shouted “nar den, are you Wednesdayites?” The whole group were on a holiday organised by the “ Sheffield Star. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted May 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2020 A few years ago, we were hiking in the Rockies when I saw a bloke wearing a Wednesday t-shirt coming the other way. With a big daft grin on my face, I bellowed the customary 'We're all Wednesday, aren't we?' and looked forward to a few minutes of shared bonhomie and incredulity at the chances of bumping into a fellow Owl in the forests of Canada...but that's not what happened. Instead, he and his group just stopped, stared and looked utterly bemused. 'We're all Wednesday, aren't we?' I repeated, at a much lower volume this time. Cue more puzzled glances. 'Er...your Sheffield Wednesday t-shirt', I offered, with a gesture towards his torso. 'Oh, this?', he replied in a thick Australian accent. 'Yeah, I don't really follow soccer.' I hope he got eaten by a bear. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
