==Official League Records==
 +
At the end of [[Season 4]], Briggs was affected by the [[Season 4#Decrees|Alternate Reality]] Decree.
  
== Nickname==
+
At the end of [[Season 5]], the [[Season 5#Blessings_2|Soul Swap]] blessing randomized Briggs' pitching stats from {{Star Rating|1}} to {{Star Rating|0.5}}.
Charleston Shoe Thieves fans are also known as "Accomplices", which reflects how the fanbase is an extension of the Shoe Thieves themselves. They also seem to respond to any mention of shoes.
 
  
==Honor Among Thieves==
+
{{Community Lore}}
The fans, much like their beloved team, are in it for the love of the game. Shoes can be stolen from both winners and losers, after all.
+
==Blaseball Career==
 
+
During a notorious interview in XX23, Briggs revealed they did not know what a blaseball was, stating that they just "throw whatever I find in my hand," and appearing visibly perturbed and afraid when shown a picture of a ball.
Bigotry of any kind is against the Thieves' code.
 
 
 
Though Shoe Thieves fans are largely unorganized, they relay their most important communications through [https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/ letters]. Match MVP is kept track of throughout the season, and at the end of the season fans will vote for and deliver awards to their favorite players.
 
 
 
== Chants==
 
===Team-Wide Chants===
 
The most popular chant is a call and response, often after a victory:
 
 
 
*"Whose Kicks? / Our Kicks!"
 
 
 
After a particularly tense or dramatic victory, some fans will taunt the opposition by chanting "Our shoes now!" or "Give me your shoes!"
 
 
 
The Shoe Thieves are no stranger to disappointing games, but determine to stay a stranger to disappointment. During games and plays that can be considered disappointing, fans will chant "it's😔okay". No one knows how they say "😔" with their mouths.
 
 
 
Fans have observed that a majority of the Shoe Thieves' runs occur after two batters are out, and have dubbed this the "Two Out Rally". As such, whenever two Shoe Thieves are out, fans will chant "Two Out Rally!" in hopes of encouraging their team to score.

==Superstitions==
 
Due to the mystery of what causes a Rogue Ump to commit such an act, much superstition has grown around [[incineration]]. When talking about it, many accomplices use the euphemism "delacing". This is in part to avoid jinxing the team, either through simply invoking the word or by drawing unwanted attention from the Umps.
 
  
This seemed to work until partway through [[Season 3]], when [[Sebastian Townsend]] and replacement [[Atlas Jonbois]] were incinerated within days of each other, followed by the tragic losses of [[Matteo Prestige]] and [[Blankenship Fischer]]. The superstition has stuck, and fans hope that those four incinerations were bad luck.
+
During a game in the XX32 season, Briggs was ejected from the game and suspended for two games after it was discovered they had soaked their uniform in kerosene and were attempting to light a match before their start pitching against the [[Yellowstone Magic]]. This was deemed an attempt to gain an unfair advantage, and ruled as unsplortsmanlike behavior.
  
== Friendships and Rivalries ==
+
Following the Incinerations of both [[Sebastian Townsend]] and [[Atlas Jonbois]] within a five game span in [[Season 3]], Briggs entered into a verbal altercation with an Umpire, reportedly saying "Why them and not me? How much more do I need to do?"
There are rarely dull moments with these fans, either due to the drama of Shoe Thieves games (see:the Grand Unslam), shoe-related antics, or the ever-shifting rivalries. Anyone with shoes is a target, yet some teams have earned particular recognition by the Accomplices.
 
  
===[[Boston Flowers]]===
+
Briggs is currently described as having a "borderline obsession" with veteran player Jonbois, who was Incinerated after only two games. They keep a small shrine in their locker, which they have been spotted tearfully whispering to as part of their pregame ritual.  
In [[Season 2]], a rivalry with the Boston Flowers was mutually agreed, only for the teams to not play a single game together in [[Season 3]]. This was rectified in [[Season 4]], including several back to back series and a [[Feedback]] event.
 
  
After [[Morrow Doyle]] was swapped to the Boston Flowers amid a string of weather events for the Flowers, fans realized they had a lot more in common with their rivals than previously thought. The accomplices could empathize with the pain of losing so many beloved players in quick succession, and have bonded more with Flowers fans. The rivalry still remains - only the Shoe Thieves are allowed to beat the Flowers.
+
Despite this occasionally downbeat attitude, Briggs still frequently spends time watching sitcoms, such as [[Quilting Addict]], [[Tunnel of Hands]], and [[Cowardly, Slimy, Company]], with new teammate [[Hotbox Sato]]. They are reportedly quite fond of one another, and Sato can even be found drifting in and out of Briggs's upper torso when particularly excited.  
  
===[[Dallas Steaks]]===
+
===After Alternate Reality===
After a narrow victory against the Dallas Steaks during the [[Season 2#Postseason|Season 2 playoffs]], followed by both teams making playoffs again in Season 3, the accomplices declared the Steaks their rivals, much to the apparent bemusement of the Grillers.
+
After the ''Alternate Reality'' [[decree]] passed at the [[Season 4#Election Results|end of Season 4]], Briggs was swapped with a Snyder Briggs from an Alternate Reality.
  
===[[Kansas City Breath Mints]]===
+
The most noticeable difference between the two Briggs is that the alternate reality's Briggs' boiling blood, a condition that leaves them with body temperatures varying from 100°C up to 380°C. This makes the air around them ripple as it would around a cookout, and makes it appear as though their skin is steaming. This version of Briggs also wears a mullet.
The Kansas City Breath Mints have a one-sided rivalry with the Shoe Thieves, which many Shoe Thieves fans remain completely unaware of. Prior to their incineration, [[Boyfriend Monreal]]'s relationship with [[Ren Hunter]] proved challenging for Breath Mints fans, who eventually settled on being happy for Monreal.
 
  
===[[Houston Spies]]===
+
Another stark difference would be Briggs' career with the [[Charleston Glove Bandits]], an alternate-universe [[Sloccer]] team (whose lineup is otherwise identical to the [[Charleston Shoe Thieves/Season 1|Season 1 Shoe Thieves]]). Sloccer is a sport renowned for the lack of mortal danger it puts its players through; with no umpires, there are no umpires to go rogue. This has been something Briggs has had difficulty adjusting from after coming to the Shoe Thieves: "It would be different if it was just a mechanics issue. I can deal with mechanics. I can learn how to throw a sloccerball. But I don’t even know where to start with this. I thought that [[Matteo Prestige|Matteo]] was traded out or something, man. Or that [[Morrow Doyle|Doc]] had just...quit, y’know? I’m surprised this place hasn’t been sued into the ground by now."
The Shoe Thieves' █████████ with the Houston Spies is ████████. Any ██████████████████████ blaseball ████████████████████████ is purely coincidental.
 
  
===[[Canada Moist Talkers]]===
+
The alternate Snyder Briggs continued to struggle with the realities of life as a Blaseball player, suffering from poor motivation and decreased performance on the mound beginning in [[Season 6]].
Because so much of their roster has been traded between the Thieves and the Canada Moist Talkers, fans of both teams are very invested in the others success and the safety of their players. After the incineration of [[Workman Gloom]] in Season 7, fans of both teams came together to mourn them.
 
  
===[[Hawaii Fridays]]===
+
To help Briggs adjust and grow more accustomed to the team, [[Stu Trololol]] and [[Esme Ramsey]] worked together to assemble a makeshift sloccerfield in the yard behind the clubhouse. Briggs often uses this field to cool down (quite literally) after particularly poor performances, and to figure out how to incorporate his signature soccer moves into his pitching. One of these moves, "The 360°C Kick," they've had considerable trouble integrating, as it requires them to utilize the heat boiling in their blood to ignite the sloccerball. When asked about this, they've stated, “Despite every other ''smoking hot'' part of me, I’ve always had cold hands. About as frigid as the inside of a sauna. It’s just the way I am.” 
The Hawaii Fridays have remained in the same division as the Shoe Thieves since Season 1. Because of this, the teams face off often, even playing against each other 30 times in [[Season 5|a single season]]. In spite of this, fans tend to be close, due in no small part to Fridays fans' immaculate vibes.

Personal Life

Before Alternate Reality

Briggs has frequently expressed a desire to experience incineration. "It gets pretty chilly out there on the mound some days," they were recorded saying to an Umpire in XX57. "I think it would do a body good to get some fire in my bones, ya know?"

During a game in the XX32 season, Briggs was ejected from the game and suspended for two games after it was discovered they had soaked their uniform in kerosene and were attempting to light a match before their start pitching against the Yellowstone Magic. This was deemed an attempt to gain an unfair advantage, and ruled as unsplortsmanlike behavior.

Following the Incinerations of both Sebastian Townsend and Atlas Jonbois within a five game span in Season 3, Briggs entered into a verbal altercation with an Umpire, reportedly saying "Why them and not me? How much more do I need to do?"

Briggs is currently described as having a "borderline obsession" with veteran player Jonbois, who was Incinerated after only two games. They keep a small shrine in their locker, which they have been spotted tearfully whispering to as part of their pregame ritual.

Despite this occasionally downbeat attitude, Briggs still frequently spends time watching sitcoms, such as Quilting Addict, Tunnel of Hands, and Cowardly, Slimy, Company, with new teammate Hotbox Sato. They are reportedly quite fond of one another, and Sato can even be found drifting in and out of Briggs's upper torso when particularly excited.

After Alternate Reality

After the Alternate Reality decree passed at the end of Season 4, Briggs was swapped with a Snyder Briggs from an Alternate Reality.

The most noticeable difference between the two Briggs is that the alternate reality's Briggs' boiling blood, a condition that leaves them with body temperatures varying from 100°C up to 380°C. This makes the air around them ripple as it would around a cookout, and makes it appear as though their skin is steaming. This version of Briggs also wears a mullet.

Another stark difference would be Briggs' career with the Charleston Glove Bandits, an alternate-universe Sloccer team (whose lineup is otherwise identical to the Season 1 Shoe Thieves). Sloccer is a sport renowned for the lack of mortal danger it puts its players through; with no umpires, there are no umpires to go rogue. This has been something Briggs has had difficulty adjusting from after coming to the Shoe Thieves: "It would be different if it was just a mechanics issue. I can deal with mechanics. I can learn how to throw a sloccerball. But I don’t even know where to start with this. I thought that Matteo was traded out or something, man. Or that Doc had just...quit, y’know? I’m surprised this place hasn’t been sued into the ground by now."

The alternate Snyder Briggs continued to struggle with the realities of life as a Blaseball player, suffering from poor motivation and decreased performance on the mound beginning in Season 6.

To help Briggs adjust and grow more accustomed to the team, Stu Trololol and Esme Ramsey worked together to assemble a makeshift sloccerfield in the yard behind the clubhouse. Briggs often uses this field to cool down (quite literally) after particularly poor performances, and to figure out how to incorporate his signature soccer moves into his pitching.
