The SO's best friend is a Niner's fan. DIE hard. He's always teasing the SO that Uncle Scott is going to turn our son into a Niner's fan.

He's sort of slacking in that department though, since my son learned "E-A-G-L-E-S, EAGLES!" almost two years ago.

Nope, they do that quite a bit in Philly, too.

Plus, we have a JAIL in our stadium. I mean, c'mon... how can you top that? Unless someone installs an electric chair in theirs, we win!

But the atmosphere is intense. I've been to other stadiums, not many, but some, and everyone is on their cell phone, or sampling every frickin' food item, or picking their nose....

Good or bad, Philly fans care. some would say too much.... but we care.

You know.. It goes on everywhere..
A group of us went to see the Flyers and Caps play in DC and we were being booed, had food thrown at us and people were flat out asssssholes.

It's funny, because even when we're losing...if it's the 9th inning, 2 outs and a full count on the batter...we're still on our feet screaming at the top of our lungs. Got to love it.

We never give up.

We have "battered fan syndrome".

Doc has me on beer and valium for it... so far so good.
