Not welcome in philadelphia

I was at the skins game last year. For the most part the guys around me were pretty nice. It did get tense though when i stood up and shouted on meachems touchdown and bushs punt return. I'm going again this year. Wish me(us) luck.

I lived up there for a time. For the "City of Brotherly Love" they seem to take hate to a level that all of us down here don't understand.

i really hate philly. their teams and their ppl are just crap...visited once, won't ever return.

I went to the Chicago game last year and the trash talking was on from the start when people saw my Colston jersey but I'd never back down so I cheered and hollared and showed it in their faces every time we scored.

But I agree you shouldn't have to defend yourself just because you like different teams. A little teasing and ribbing is fine by me. Still its not a problem at all in the NFL compared to the soccer over here. Those people are killing each other.

Maybe they need to bring the stadium jail back -- they could name it after Vick.

I live not far from Philly. The last time the Saints were in town I went to the game. I had my Jersey and hat on. I went with a bunch of Eagles fans. Walking through the parking lot I got threatned with I am gonna kick your a__ and I am gonna kill you if you walk by here again. By the time I left me jersey and hat were in my backpack. I would never take my kid there to see a game. They are horrible.

where at in sj spkb? (probably had this conversation before) I spent most of my life in south jersey, salem county. I'm a Philly fan for everything but football. Let's not generalize, yeah there are some real bastards out there, but we aren't all like that.

I am a fan of the flyers, and sixers myself. I grew up in Gloucester county. Yeah we talked about hanging at the Deptford mall, lolololol
