The Portland Timbers beat Houston Dynamo 2-1 last night, but the coolest moment came before the match even started when giant banners in the stands were raised to reveal an unflinching Pride display with an unlikely messenger: Mae Borowski from Night in the Woods<\/em><\/span>. It was one of the best video game crossover reveals in recent memory, and it came amid daily reminders that one of the US’s two political parties wants to outlaw being queer.<\/p>\n

The display at Major League Soccer’s Providence Park included three parts. The first banner read, \u201cFrom Stonewall a brick from Portland an ax,\u201d referencing the 1969 riot and protest for gay rights. The second part read, \u201cRespect our pride or expect our wrath.\u201d Finally, Night in the Woods<\/em>‘<\/span> Mae rose from the crowd with her softball bat swapped out for the Timbers’ hand ax. \u201cPortland is Pride,\u201d the team tweeted<\/a><\/span> next to an image of the display just before kick-off.<\/p>\n
