* One for the brony fanbase as a whole, if only for the sheer troll potential. Seth uncovered a poll on the Hub's website asking what the station's fan's favorite show was. Cue bronies flooding the poll with MLP votes, and then, when they moved it to another website, ''they did it again''.
** This tends to happen every time a poll is put on [[Equestria Daily]]. A particularly amazing moment was a poll in Facebook where they asked who had the best fanbase, and [[The Hunger Games]] had a 1k lead on Fim. And then it got linked to Equestria Daily. Cue [[Curb Stomp Battle|4k votes for ponies in about two hours]].
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7URogxWx_aE This] commercial aired on Pinkie Pie's birthday (75 days after the airing of [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S2 E18 A Friend in Deed|A Friend In Deed]]), and was, according to [[The Hub]]'s [[Facebook]] page, made to celebrate that day, which is something only the true fans would recognize.

* John de Lancie [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVK3jgOhFwY announced] that he is helping to create a documentary about the Brony phenomenon to counteract the [[Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch|media's]] [[Did Not Do the Research|general]] [[Hate Dumb|reaction]] [[Fan Hater|to it]]. Its [http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/257527888/bronycon-the-documentary Kickstarter page] goal is a whopping $60,000... which received over $30,000 in pledges on its ''first day alone'', and reached its goal by the end of the Third.
** And it's only gotten better. Lauren Faust and Tara Strong are now on board as producers, the total pledges are close to $150,000 (not counting any money in through [[Pay Pal]]), and the target was increased to $200,000 by June 10. Various incentives are also being offered for different pledge levels, running from a thank-you in the documentary credits all the way up to a dinner with John, Lauren, and Tara.
