Blue and White Army Posted June 28, 2008 Author Share Posted June 28, 2008 quote:Originally posted by Trident I dont get it. There was no TV coverage of the St. Vincent vs. Canada match, only audio commentary from the St. Vincent radio stations. STAR FM had some (unintentionally) rather humorous adverts that they kept playing (even occasionally during the match), one of which was the Phillip's Bakery advert. During the match, there were several dozen Vees in an online chat, and many of us were "taking the piss" out of the ads, particularly the Phillip's Bakery ad. One of those cult Voyageurs jokes - much like the cucumbers, I suppose. quote:Originally posted by Grizzly Awesome. We need to write a chant about Phillip's Bakery!

Blue and White Army Posted June 29, 2008 Author Share Posted June 29, 2008 Apparently there's a Philip's Bakery in Quincy, MA: http://cohasset.massachusetts-services.com/food-dining/restaurants/ It's on the way back to Boston (from Foxborough), for all those TFC supporters who made the trip down for tonight's MLS match. I reckon a pilgrimage is in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboAl Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 I love it with the echo and everything. I kept on thinking when I heard it for the St.V match...hey isn't that a Bobby Brown song (can't remember the name of it) in the background? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the Belize game some Vs bought cucumbers that they then took with them into the stadium. They have no meaning. They make no sense. That's the joke.

Stement of the obvious is very necessary for some of the people who inhabit this forum, subtlety and implication goes right over their heads. And how do you know I don't write comedy?

Richard Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Statement of the obvious is very necessary for some of the people who inhabit this forum, as they have amply illustrated already with their posts. And as for schoolyards, this place bears an uncanny resemblance to a middleschool schoolyard at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
