Bayern Munich has many rivals. The lesser known of which is the one with local club 1860 Munich (or as some Bayern fans affectionately call them, 1859+1 Munich). After 1860 ultras mobbed someone from Bayern’s offices, it seems they’re at it again when this seemingly harmless “Bayern” crest was floating about:
As it turns out, it’s a fake and what the crest reads is “FC Farmers sons of b*tches.”
It wouldn’t be the first time 1860 tried to cause mayhem. During Bayern’s 125th anniversary celebrations, they hung an insulting banner outside a building across the Marienplatz. Three years ago, ultras from both teams had a massive brawl in the city. Heck, even the club presidents aren’t on the same wavelength.
All things considered, hopefully 1859+1 enjoyed their 15 minutes of fame because once this settles down it’s back to being irrelevant until perhaps the next time they try to become “relevant again”.
