Re: Safe to watch a game in Philly?
I was born and raised in philly. Went to many Eagle Redskin games at the vet in my skins gear. Eagle season ticket holders are the worst fans I have ever seen. Absolute animals, drunk, puking, pissing everywhere, fighting & cursing all over the place. I have never personally had a run in with any of them, but I have seen a lot of nasty behavior around me over the years, including the indian chief dude getting his ass kicked years ago in the parking lot.
I do have some friends who are eagles season ticket holders now and they tell me that the place has calmed down a lot since they moved into the new stadium...
One other thing...if you go don't engage them. Just watch your team and keep your mouth shut. If you respond to one guy who yells something to you then others will hear you and swarm. I have been to about 20 eagles skins games at the vet without incident, becasue I don't take the bait. They want someone who will say something back and escalate a situation. Many of them are drunk white trash just looking for trouble.
