OMG! dude! Seriously, amazing *squee!* happened today! ahem! So I woke up and found out one of my best friends from another town was visiting my city. We met up and I admitted that yeah ponies have pretty much taken over all my hobbies, he hardly cared. So we went into the city together and I introduce him to one of my favourite gaming stores. I was wearing my Fluttershy shirt and a random dude said stuff that only a brony could say. I was so surprised and did not expect it. My IRL friend witnessing the whole thing. I was like dude you gotta give me your email and I'll join you to the brony facebook group. so he did. He then gave me my first real life brohoof! I then went into a random store that had soda and the girl behind the counter started going off about Rarity being best pony, I of course corrected her that best pony was Fluttershy, this whole exchange happening in front of my IRL friend. I invited her to the facebook group, but she told me she wasn't THAT big a fan of the show, I gave her sad face! Anyway When I got home with my friend he was so curious that he practically begged me to put a few MLP:FiM episodes on. I got him to watch the pilot and episode 4 AppleBuck season and he said it was okay, but not something he would be inclined to watch anymore of. This made me sad, but at least he kind of understands my obsession now. Anyway the 2 random IRL bronies I came across in the city have me absolutely beaming with joy. I am far from alone, I almost feel like a celebrity wearing my Fluttershy shirt, now and then people will brohoof me. I think this show a lot about just how big this fandom is, it's almost like 1% of the Earth's population are brony and that is a lot.
Awesome!!! i need a Pony shirt! i want to walk around wtih it on adn see what response i get... but my school is all about drugs and raping women...(no joke) so i dont think i'm gonna find alot of Bronies.
Wait some you get a facebook group of 102 people. Then you get 2 IRL bro-hoofs. Where are the bronies hiding in Maryland. I wear my shirts all the time and people don't even seem to register that I have a pony on the front. You have the best city.
I'm gonna need to get a pony shirt at some point. Of course, I'd have to actually go somewhere outside of this island for there to be any point, but whatever. That certainly must have been a lucky day. Either that, or you just got the majority of bronies right outside your house- which would explain why we can't find any. XD
Whoa, that's crazy! I mean, it's one thing to meet one brony IRL, but to two in one day?! That's just awesome!
Agreed. I'm thinking about getting a shirt but...I'm rural so I don't think anyone would notice, and if they did I'd prolly never hear the end of it.
Beats me...although I did go to a Brony Meetup. Woohoo! The only brohoof / other bronies that I have met were my closest IRL friend and my sister's friend who has a basic knowledge of MLP:FiM. Anyways, nice that you got a brohoof. I wish I could get some myself. Got to wait until next year for these con's I'm going to meet up with some of the Floridian bronies from EPForums.
That's awesome that you got two IRL brohoofs, Setzer! Talk about lucky! The only times I've ever got/given a brohoof were from my brother and a couple of his friends who like the show.
Heh, none of my friends are into the show that I know of. I want a pony shirt, just to wander around in and see what sort of reactions I'd get.
That's awesome I have one irl brony friend who got me into the show and I'm slowly getting all my other friends into the show. I'm going to new york comic con next week and hope my shirts are here by then so I can hopefully run into more bronies
