Eagles Fans Should Be Ashamed

billyharless · 11-12-2007, 01:36 PM

I was at the game yesterday in section 436. The Eagles fans have no class at all. The cops arrested one guy for throwing a beer bottle. There was one female eagles fans getting in the face of other fans and overall they just acted like morons.

dgack · 11-12-2007, 01:37 PM

Is there any doubt that they are the most classless fans in all of pro sports?

Philly football fans are the closest thing we have to soccer hooligans (with apologies to Raider Nation). It's almost like they take pride in their idiocy.

skinsfan_nn · 11-12-2007, 01:48 PM

Thats the usual! They don't know any better, the philly way........ ZERO CLASS!

We witnessed a few philly fans leave the game rather blooded up...........

I went last year to Phil at Wash

Same thing the Philly fans were crazy and annoying. One Philly's guy got kicked out. They are retared to say the least.

Try seeing a game in Philly - I've seen the Skins up there 8-10 times over the years. Those idiots are even worse when gathered in large numbers.

Yeah that sounds way to dangerous. At least yesterday there were lots of Skins fans around.

I sat directly in front of a group of Eagles fans yesterday and frankly, I was ashamed to be a Redskins fan. They were a quiet bunch and cheered for their team the way fans should. They didn't curse at anyone and tried to stay out of trouble. Despite their efforts, they were cursed at, had beer poured on them, and were harrassed the entire game. Of course that is natural when you come to enemy turf, but when the Skins' fans started leaving with 2 minutes left and within one score of tying the game, it proved that Skins' fans have no heart while Eagles' fans stuck it out the entire game. Why do Skins' fans leave early like that? Do we really care more about getting home than cheering our team on and possibly seeing overtime? I'm ashamed.

I stayed until the game was over.

The Eagles fans are still the most classless fans in the NFL.

Was there really the need for a new thread that already points out the obvious?

I went to a Skins - Eagles game a few years back in Washington. It was sad, at least 50% of the fans there were Eagles fans. It was the first or the 2nd out of the 3 years the Eagles had that streak of going to the Championship game and never following through. The Skins got killed 31 - 7 and the Eagles fans booed Bruce Smith at half-time when he was receiving an award. Most classless fans in professional sports.

Danny Boy has himself one of the least accessible stadiums in pro-sports. Way out in the sticks, no metro access, shitty parking, and MISERABLE pre and post game traffic. After yet another pathetic second half collapse, I don't know that I would have stayed unitl the clock hit 0:00 yesterday had I been there. And that's saying a lot b/c I'm not one to ever leave games early. That's the second time we've let a division rival embarass us like that in our house in the second half.

As far as the respectful Eagles fans in front of you, I'm glad to hear there are a few out there. Clearly an aberration though. The vast majority of their fans are championship-starved, mouthy, agressive a-holes.

Out in the sticks! Whats wrong with the parking? I get to the games around 10:30 and drive right in everytime without a wait so thats not an issue. Anytime you have 90,000 people leaving a venue all at once there are trafic issues. Land in that area is not that easy to find so I'm not sure how much of a choice they had in its location. So come early and tailgate after the game and trafic dies down pretty quick.

Every time I go to a Skins game I always tailgate afterwards to avoid traffic. But I've been to several different NFL stadiums, and FedEx is easily the worst as far as accessibilty and post game traffic. Also, if you're going to 1 o'clock games and arriving almost 3 hours early as you say, then of course you're going to drive right in. Maybe the parking isn't awful, but I've had a few bad experiences.

Remember, Danny Boy inherited the stadium and it was Jack Kent Cooke who moved the team's field to MD (had to do with some issue with DC Mayor Sharon Kelly). Still Danny Boy could make the parking/departing process a whole lot less painful.
