What is the daftest thing you've seen at a City match?

The 2-2 with QPR in 98.

It was notable for the Pollock OG and Kinky telling Royle to get fucked.

But what made it for me was is in the kippax with my old man and the bloke sitting next us was singing about City playing like Brazil and gave every city player a Brazilian nickname. He was proper taking the piss. Despite the dire straits of the match I spent 90 mins pissing myself listening to him and we hugged when Bradburyinho scored the equaliser.

I always loved Kippax humour. I remember back in the late 80's, not sure who against, its not the point, but a man stands next to me, just turned up, proper dry manc accent "right are we 5-up yet?" And in those days we din't score 5 in as many games!
 
I also remember the 3-3 against Bournemouth, 89, we're 3-up at half time and off to the 1st Division, as was, till the Cherries ripped up the script, drew 3-3, so not going up, crown livid as they leave the stadium, the man, who was there every match for decades with his 'repent the end of the world is nigh' sandwich board, and i see this angry fan turns to him and shouts "you'd better f*ck of in there and tell that shower of sh*te!!"
 
away at chesterfield league cup 2006, late in second half 2-1 down, small group chanted 'we want dickov, we want dickov' (unused sub) typical city humour, some one shouted back to them 'we want all the dicks off'.
 
My mate's Dad, Ken, had progressive dementia but still came to the match with us for a couple of seasons. We always had/have a pint in the ground. As Ken's dementia was getting worse he didn't bother with a beer so he'd make his way to his seat next to me and a couple of mates.

One of the last games at Maine Road, Ken says "I'll see you in a bit". So we had our pint made our way to the seats for KO and no Ken, his son was worried until we saw him stood up at his "seat" arguing with another supporter, it's a bit Eric and Ernie but he was in the right seat in the wrong block, we couldn't help but laugh and my mate went to get his Dad and explained what had happened, the guy who's seat it was completely understood and actually apologised for the argument.

Sadly that was one of Ken's last games, he went to the new stadium just once, it was too much for him, he passed away in the mid noughties but we still talk about that incident and other stories Ken had.
 
KDB miscued a shot then started jumping up and down like a 6 year old kid having a temper tantrum. I pissed my self laughing it was so funny to watch.
