Raging Bull Nation

RagingBullNation, formerly known as MetroNation, is a supporters group for the New York Red Bulls of Major League Soccer. It is a New Jersey non-profit corporation (Corp. ID #0400085504.) MetroNation was founded on February 21, 2005 in Wayne, New Jersey by Marc "Chief Metro" Bernarducci as a way of fostering increased support for the predecessor to the Red Bulls, the MetroStars.

The MetroStars were purchased by the Austrian beverage company Red Bull on March 9, 2006 and were rebranded as the New York Red Bulls. The club continues to exist and function under its new RagingBullNation name.

RagingBullNation encourages its members to become the “12th man” for the Red Bulls by leading creative chants and encouraging players on the field. RagingBullNation's section at Giants Stadium on gameday was 115 in the lower bowl. This section is referred to as “Citizens Corner” or "The Corral" as it is positioned in the corner by one goal.

Charitable activities

RagingBullNation is well-known for its charitable endeavors. In its first year of existence, MetroNation raised $1015.20 in donations for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. MetroNation also raised funds for victims of Hurricane Katrina. When evacuees from New Orleans resettled temporarily in the New York City area, MetroNation hosted them at a MetroStars match on September 17, 2005 -- a wild 5-4 MetroStars victory over New England Revolution.
