News emerged on Twitter today that Monterrey fans are preparing a massive procession to Tigres’ stadium.

The fans have agreed to meet in the city centre at 4:30pm and walk from there to the ground. Upon arrival it is reported that they will release thousands of helium balloons.

Monterrey have pulled similar stunts in the past. In the 99th Clasico they did this:
