The American Outlaws

The American Outlaws (abbreviation: AO) are an unofficial supporters' group for the United States men's national soccer team and United States women's national soccer team and have been described as "a raucous group of U.S. supporters" by ESPN. Founded in 2007 by a group of fans from Lincoln, Nebraska, the group set out to "unite and strengthen" supporters at United States national soccer team games.

Their first appearance was at an international friendly between Brazil and the United States at Soldier Field in Chicago on September 9, 2007, and they are now found at every men's and women's national team games. The group can be readily identified by their red membership shirts and American flag bandanas. At games, they are most often located as a group in the seats behind one of the goals. They usually bring banners and other TIFO. They are frequently accompanied by a drum corp made up of members dressed like popular American icons such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Captain America, Rocky Balboa, and the Pilgrims.
