Exactly 20 years ago today, the now classic saying “Fuck You Gazza, will ya?” was created by Jair!

Don’t miss this, probably you were there replying haha: https://www.rocksoff.org/Archives/11-29-2004/205115-1.html

Three pages of the original thread with the hilarious story of the now famous saying.

Image is Jair and Gazza, on vacation, on a hot summer day, Brazilian Jungle
In loving memory of both Jair “Coca Buena” Motta (Brazil, 1961-2021) and Gazza (Northern Ireland, 1963-2024)

Because of the extensive use, especially during the ABB tour, our regular UrbanExile posts the Urban Dictionary entry about it

I dont know if SweetV still has the infamous video of all of us on the bus heading to BUFFALO 2015,
yelling FUCK YOU GAZZA for 7 miles as we proceeded to pre-party the afternoon away.
The band was on FIRE that nite too!!

I really want that video!!! My last FYG, WY? was with Stonesdoug in Houston in April, and we did it in Spanish and English! Gazza didn't watch it but I told him about it!! Check your WhatsApp, I sent it some minutes ago

I have also those we took in 2016 during the first preparty here and many more. It will be great to make a compilation in his honor.

I remember that vividly. What a crazy super fun weekend that was. It’s hard to believe that’s over 9 years ago. Time just seems to move exponentially faster in the aging process.🙃

For the first question select the correct answer:

For your second question I had no answer, life is short so live it now

I'm loving the memories this thread brings. Life has been getting more difficult, I don't know if the god damn CERN threw us into an alternate, shitty timeline or it's just the cherry on top for getting old, but either way it's so sweet to remember that a message board has brought so much laughter and friendships and good times and great people. And 100% comedy gold moments like this one.

I miss Gazza and I miss Jair.

Even though I don't post here as often, it still feels like my online home. Thanks for reminding us of this, Gerardo!

Another funny "FYG" moment!

Gazza attended the show at the Slane Castle in Ireland, on August 18, 2007, Albert, from the Netherlands, suprised him with this one! Gazza was proud to wear it during the show, he didn't know about it

When I first saw that thread, I took it literally and told Gazza I would fvck him any day, he was flattered and we flirted and joked about it but it never happened, yet I loved him from a distance.
