The GCGBAGs
The Greater Columbus Golden Boys and Girls supporter group/lifestyle brand was officially formed in 2016.
Like many supporter groups, GCGBAG (pronounced ghee see ghee bag) prides ourselves on being inclusive and welcoming to all Crew fans. If you like tailgating, singing “Africa” by Toto at the top of your lungs and Upping the Lads on match day, you have found your new family. We’re also official members of the Independent Supporters Council, which advocates for fair treatment of supporters across North America and promotes supporter culture..
But GCGBAG is more than a supporter group; we’re a lifestyle brand. From custom 2-sticks with obscure references to exclusive swag and cult-like reverence to Josh Williams, we do it all! We’ve produced loads of exclusive content on GCGBAG TV, including fan favorites like the Drunken Crewzer Postgame Show, FIFA Scouting Report and the limited Web series The Search For The Golden Crewzer. We’ve even got a song on Spotify! And did we mention Gumbinho!?!
Our involvement extends well beyond just supporting the Crew . We are proud supporters of Columbus Eagles FC, our local women’s soccer club, and we’ve been their Official Broadcast Partners since 2021. Our commitment to the community goes even further back, from establishing relationships with local nonprofits like CRIS (Community Refugee and Immigration Services) and Final Third Foundation, to helping found the Nation’s Cup.
We are always open to suggestions from members and non-members alike. We like to empower our members to take the lead on their own ideas for supporter projects and methods of support. Let us know if you have any ideas for chants, tifos, or other projects!
Make sure to follow us on BlueSky, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, or our LinkTree so you can keep up with all GCGBAG announcements.
