1,000 Strong. Grazie

In November of 2012, two brothers from New Jersey decided to create a Twitter account dedicated to their love and passion for Milan. This page was started so that we would have a place to discuss the red and black with other fellow Milanisti and provide some of those around the world with news and information on Milan, news that perhaps was unavailable to them. We wanted to bring our love for Milan to social networks and make some friends along the way.

Once we started this page, we made it our goal to reach at least 1000 followers from all over the world and share some great times with them along the way. We understood that it would take time to reach this goal and we really needed to be on top of this account when major news broke about Milan. We have live tweeted during matches and have really enjoyed sharing the excitement with the other Milan fans, whether it was a win, loss or draw. We first met a large group of our followers this past summer at Metlife Stadium for the ICC Cup featuring Milan. They welcomed us with open arms to the Milan family and we couldn't have been more appreciative. This is what the page was all about. A family of loyal, diverse Milan fans from all ethnicity, races and ages united on one network.

On December 10th 2013, we finally accomplished our goal. 1000 followers strong. We set a goal, at times, questioned if it was attainable but with help of everyone on Twitter supporting us and spreading the word about our page, we were successful. On behalf of the AC Milan Bros, we thank each and every one of you who have made this possible. From some of our very first followers (you know who you are) to those who joined the party late, we appreciate your continuous support for what we do. A special shoutout to our Northeast friends, AC Milan Club NY/NJ and Milan Club Philly for really helping us get our foot in the door and gain some recognition. Not only are they great  Milan fans but also great people. Grazie to everyone and here is to more good times in the future! FORZA MILAN!!!!!-MS
