The Sons of Ben are no joke live. I went to my first Union game on saturday and those guys chanted the entire game. And I don't mean like little chants. I mean the entire section of the SOB's were on their feet the entire game chanting in unison the ENTIRE GAME. I especially liked the opposing goal kick's chant which is: ooooooOOOOOOHHH!!!! YOU SUCK ASSHOLE!

These group of fans were supporting a team that wasn't even in existence yet and i dont know about you but thats true support. and this is a league thats less than 20 years old not teams with a 100 years of history. This is america not europe

It's not an original song. Woody Guthrie wrote it, its called "Union Maid" and it is about trade unions and the crap they have to put up with. From the looks of these guys, they probably hate union workers and would happily break them, and they certainly have no clue what these words mean.

I've been to 3 home games so far and while I do appreciate the SOBs presence, I have never heard this chant. They should do it more. Team unique chants are hands down the best.
