Pony Sightings

[Denim&Venöm 19,094]

Ever seen someone with MLP merch outside of the toy isle or hot topic? Whether it's a fellow Brony you never expected or just a kid with the toys, post it here!

 

For example, a few days ago I was bagging groceries and see a dad/ grandad with his little girl in the cart seat, probably 2 or 3 years old, and she had the color-in Rainbow Dash and Princess Luna figurines, both covered in tons of little stickers. It was so cute.

 

How bout you?

Well, one time my parents went to the mall without me (I decided to stay home and sleep instead) and my mother mentioned that she saw a teenage girl wearing this shirt:

 

 

As you would assume...I regretted not going. The only other times I can remember is when I wore pony shirts and bronies would stop me to tell me that they like the show...that's about it. :/ 

[Fhaolan 4,484]

I was at a show rehearsal last Wednesday, and one of the girls had a 'My Little Shadowfax' shirt on. She, I, and another actress there talked about picking up a Doctor Whooves shirt, if we could decide on which one.

 

One of my former co-workers had a Gamer Luna hoodie she'd wear to work on occasion. She transferred to a different department about six months ago.

 

Just in case: all the female MLP-fans I know in RL call themselves Bronies, not Pegasisters. If you have an issue with it, take it up with them. As far as I'm concerned that's their choice.

Well, there was this one guy at my college who was wearing a Vinyl Scratch shirt and a button on his beanie. I didn't know the guy, but the pony merch was clear as day.

[Malinter 3,064]

A few shops in the City of Leeds here well MLP merch like Pony Bags (Derpy & Pinkie ones, £58 o_o) as well as shirts and the comics.

 

Actually saw someone in the shop wearing a rainbow-dash shirt with 20% Better Than The Rest. written on it. My friend bought a shirt with all the mane6 but to my knowledge he wasn't worn it in public yet.

@@Fhaolan, 

 

It's because 'Pegasisters' just sounds so.....cheesy!

 

I was eating lunch on one of my first days of college, I remember, and before I'm done with my sandwich I hear the people who happen to be sitting next to me making fun of one of their own for liking my little pony. So I make a face, lean over, and go "Is someone beatin' on my bronies here? 'Cause I might have to step in'. We end up having a great conversation about the show, me and this brony, and halfway through lunch we turn around and see someone on their laptop with a Ranibow Dash wallpaper, and wave!

 

I then realized that you couldn't swing a zapapple on a US college campus without hitting some bronies. One of the best parts of my introduction to the university, really.

I volunteer at zoo where I live, and I saw a guy with a Doctor Whooves shirt in the food court. I tried to bro hoof him, but I don't think that the gesture registered with him for a bit.

[DubWolf 17,264]

Every now and then I'll spot a brony (and walk away or am with friends :/) wearing some merch. I actually saw a girl in class the other day putting up her binder and noticed it had Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie on the cover (target spotted!). I haven't really talked to any bronies in real life, but there's always a first.

I was at the California State 4-H Leadership Conference and saw a girl wearing a "BRONY - And Dashing Proud" t-shirt. I think she was the only brony (pegasister?) there other than some of us on the tech team. Us techies gotta have our ponies!

[Scootaloo Is Best Filly 578]

There was one time that I actually talked to a Brony. While I was at my movie theater job I see this guy come in wearing a "mysterious mare do well" T-shirt. Didn't have a chance to give him a bro hoof but, we talked a little bit.

 

A few other times I saw people with a Derpy shirt, a pinkie pie shirt and one Dash cutie mark shirt (I think)

 

And while I was in Portland in August thought I saw another brony. He had a bookbag that I could swear had Dashies wings on it.

 

Looked something like this.

At work one time when a guy asked if I could quickly serve him, (he seemed to be in a hurry) when I gave him his change and he turned to leave I noticed he was wearing a DJ-Pon3 shirt with a big picture of Vinyl tearing up the decks on the front. I didn't want to stop him and say anything about it because he seemed pressed for time and I didn't even get to complement him which sucked.

[Antismurf9001 1,271]

Outside of conventions, I've seen two.  Once was last year around fall finals time, I think I saw a guy with a Derpy shirt on campus.  I only got a glancing look, so I'm not completely positive...  Then just a couple weeks ago, I saw someone in the dining hall with a 'My Little Shadowfax' shirt.  I should have at least attempted to strike up a conversation with him, but I didn't...  Oh well, perhaps next time.

[NoOneInParticular 49]

I saw someone with a Derpy messenger bag on my way to class at my university.

 

I also have a friend / coworker who wears a Rainbow Dash pin on his name badge.

[Winona the Dog 1,984]

I very rarely see people with MLP merchandise. Maybe if I'm lucky and go to the mall on a Saturday I happen to find one person walking by wearing a mlp shirt.

[Shanks 10,816]

I have see some every now and then, I have this classmate at school who sometimes wears this humanized Viny Scratch shirt also at school I saw this guy wearing a Dr Hooves shirt. I saw this little girl once when I was at work wearing a Rainbow Dash shirt and also at work I saw some MLP balloons with the mane 6 on them.

[LightsCameraAction 100]

About a week ago, I was sitting in my Spanish class. We have tables in that class, not desks. The table layout is really weird, I sit on the left side, but facing the right side of the room. Just across the aisle, facing the front of the room, is a girl that I have a HUGE crush on, needless to say, I have a great view. But that day, when I was checking her out, I saw something. She was wearing a Mane 6 belt. I didn't even know she was a brony, so I complimented her about it. It worked out well, we are dating now.

[Denim&Venöm 19,094]

Forgot I had posted this topic.

 

A few days ago I went to the theater to see the Doctor Who movie. I got my tickets but it was packed. So I'm walking out of the theater, looking for something to do until the next showing when I see I guy with a "Have you seen Trixie?" shirt. Gave him a bro-hoof on the way out.

 

I forgot to check and see if anypony was wearing a Doctor Whooves shirt that night. 

[Heatwave 177]

I have had 2 sightings on my university campus. My anti-socialness got in my way of talking to them though. One was a dude with a Fluttershy "Yay" shirt, the other (not technically merch, but still sighting) was a girl on her vinyl scratch ponyhoof.

I'm going to wear my AJ shirt and Brony wristband often, see if I get approached before the end of the semester.

Just last week in Art class when I was putting supplies away I saw someone had drawn Luna on a big piece of paper, most likely project paper. Luna was drawn in the bottom left corner and took up just under a 9th of the page. This was just lying where the projects usually go so I have no idea whose it is, but I'm pretty sure he/she isn't in my class. I probably won't pursue it, I just thought it was neat and it caught my eye.

[Auraception 4]

I have a friend who uses a derpy backpack for school.

I saw a friend of mine, wearing this at school it convinced me that I should get it.

I have actually ever noticed any bronies, or too many people with pony merchindise in real life actually, I am sure their are, just really haven't noticed them!

As far as seeing pony merchandise on sites and what not I tend to see some MLP realted stuff here and their! Btw, this would take BALLS and a hlaf, to put this on your welding helmet, especially if you actually work in a factory, or on a job site!!!

Not too often.  I saw a female college student on a SEPTA light rail train a few months ago with an MLP backpack.  It had Fluttershy and unicorn Twilight on it.

 

And just today I thought I saw someone with an Equestria Girls backpack.  But it was Monsters High.  This makes me laugh because one time my roommate pointed at a Monsters High kiosk in a store and said, "Look John, Equestria Girls!"  Why does that one chick have to look so much like Twilight?

Funny, my brother has an almost identical shirt with the ponies in a different order. Also, Applejack isn't in his. xP

OT: Someone serving me at Boost Juice had an Applejack sticker on her name tag. Other than that, not much else. d:

[~Silver Essence~ 2,625]

I rarely see something mlp related that others wear.

 

Even when they do, it's very hidden like a necklace, as I'm assuming they don't want others to know.

 

I'd wear whatever, what's the worse they can call me? Name callings? Those are meaningless.
