The Tifos of Louisville City

Updated: Oct 18, 2022

Several months back, I wrote a piece on the tifo creation process after I had an opportunity to participate in the making of one. Now, having had that firsthand experience, I've developed a much greater appreciation for tifos. They are projects that take time and man hours and we, the Louisville City fan base, are extremely fortunate to have dedicated individuals such as the Harpers who help bring these to life. It is a unique part of soccer culture and something that both the casual and hardcore fans enjoy.

In an effort to preserve this element of the club's history, I set out to collect images and catalog all the tifos that have been created for Louisville City. Below is the result of that work. I've tried to make the listing as complete as possible, but it's possible that information missing. Should you have any info or tifos that are not included below, please reach out to me and let me know!

Thank you to everyone who has taken part in making these tifos a reality over the year!
