Back Passes: THE HISTORY & LORE OF: FURT

FURT: The Most Unhinged Marketing Campaign in Women's Soccer History | Back Passes

We're diving deep into one of the most legendary memes in women's soccer history: FURT. Eva took over with a full PowerPoint presentation — yes, with Comic Sans and pink soccer ball animations — and we broke down the NWSL's infamous 2016 marketing campaign that gave us "FURT" We laughed, we cringed, and we're officially campaigning to bring FURT back for its 10-year anniversary.
