Love it or hate it, #SexySzn is the product of an engaged and charged up Philadelphia Union fanbase

Matej Oravec was officially announced as the Philadelphia Union’s latest signing on Monday morning and by afternoon had already inspired a hashtag and a couple t-shirt designs when he accidentally uttered the phrase “sexy season.”

The 21-year-old Slovakian midfielder was trying to say “successful season” in a short video posted to social media, but once the video was out there it quickly became a rallying cry for an engaged fanbase.

The #SexySzn hashtag was born within minutes of the video going up and several shirt designs followed. Doopy Brothers co-host and Brotherly Game contributor Luke McClung, who works as a graphic designer by day, designed one and SOB Tifo Director Ryan Bross had a design done and shirt made in time to wear one to the team’s open training on Wednesday morning.
