Yea man literally every city that has a NFL team is passionate about their team, that doesn’t make Philly unique.
Few of their fans look like college graduates. I would imagine the Eagles are to them what SEC schools are to people like me.

It’s funny because Eagle fan pick on fan bases that are not from the east coast or not as soft per se.


Their interactions with Giants, Redskins, Ravens, Raiders and Steelers fans are not the same with others.

Notice when Redskins fans rolled in deep for the NFC championship game the amount of behavior you see typical on display to other fans wasn’t there.

People from other east coast cities will fight back.

I have…it resembled Mogadishu


Acting like Philly is even remotely close to Mogadishu is simply a bad, naive and uninformed take.

Somalia is a completely different level of poverty that is 100x worse than states like West Virginia, Alabama, Mississippi

Being proud of being shite heads is nothing to be proud of. But I wouldn’t expect an eagles fan to have that kind of introspection

Look, I’m not saying that Philly is a perfect city by any means.
When do y’all start razing your city to celebrate?

Philadelphia has a GDP that’s higher than Sudan, Zimbabwe, and Somalia combined

Any city with an area nicknamed Zombieland has nothing to brag about.

I get why people hate Philly. But if you lived here for a while, you’d find out that there are some really down-to-earth, good people. Not everyone is bad.

How big is the HS stadium in the 215? I bet the one in Katy, TX is bigger. Jus' sayin.

You sure about that? I know those Texas country boys go crazy for football, but I don’t know if they’re as crazy as the Yankee boys!

If you honestly think that we’re nothing but a bunch of thugs, come visit Philly and hang out in the parade.


i've been and chosen not to go back on purpose.

honestly, aside from the fan behavior on TV, i have numerous friends that are fans in the middle of central Texas, all of them from church, and they do nothing but reinforce preconceived biases (minus the drunkenness and profanity.)
