NFL - Random Opinions

it's throwing snowball at Santa and that was 45 years ago.

 

The event was 45 years ago... but the stain lives on.

 

no it doesn't. fans don't know the real story behind it. they just say they threw snowballs at Santa Claus. they have no idea why they did it or that a skinny drunk Santa was taunting them and brought it on himself.

 

It does live on... we're still talking about it 45 years later.

 

It lives in Eagles lore. Throwing snowballs at Santa, a fan shooting a flare gun, a jail cell in the stadium...

 

a flare gun ? never heard of it.

oak-la-sf fans - killing someone in the parking lot, putting a fan into a coma and now he's handicapped, brawl in upper level leads to stream of blood going down staircase to lower level.

chicago-fan dumps beer on shane victorio while he's catching a fall ball. a drunk father and son rush the field and attack a first base coach or umpire. bad move as both teams came out to kick their asses.

philly gets the bad rap when many sports fans are just as bad.

 

Dave Parker said Phillies fans would throw batteries at him when he was fielding fly balls in RF.

 

Monday night game against the 49ers - fan in the stands fired a flare gun.

I know...but we're talking about the Eagles here.

 

...And let's not ignore the current Mike Scott saga.

 

Yeah but Philly fans tend to be proud of their general douchebaggery.

 

and like the Cubs fans aren't?

 

yeah between the lines of coke he was doing in the dugout.

 

no one outside of the philly area even know what that is.

 

You say that like it's a bad thing.

 

They generally refer to it as being "passionate."

 

We are much better at it.

 

So...that makes it okay? Or it somehow doesn't count...?

 

Anyway, Cat - it was just a funny line by Lyman.

 

Some of us just drink a Red Bull but who am I to judge.

 

Red Bull tastes like liquified Pez
