One thing is for sure, Columbus Crew SC fans are passionate.
When fans learned of a possible relocation of the Black & Gold, many saw this as a call to action. Fans rallied to social media where they started a campaign using #SaveTheCrew.
Since the creation of the hashtag, many rival supporters groups have changed their logos to reflect support for Major League Soccer’s original club.

Crew SC supporters groups acted swiftly and organized a rally on Sunday Oct. 22 at the Columbus Commons in downtown Columbus. However, due to overwhelming support, the supporters groups announced a change in venue for the Sunday rally as they would relocate to Columbus City Hall.

Due to the insane number of people attending the #SaveTheCrew rally on Sunday, we've moved locations to City Hall at 1pm. Spread the word.
