Just remembered when I was in Manchester Airport getting ready to fly to New York, I was wearing my shirt and I got booed as bunch of Widnes fans walked past me...

A good friend of mine met his future wife by them both wearing Wires tops whilst on holiday (Spain I think), it lead them to introduce themselves to one another, and it went on from there...

Not that far away but I try and wear mine around Middlesbrough and Stockton.

I play football on a lunch time with work and if people don't bring dark shirts I always try and get them to wear a spare Warrington shirt that i bring along.
