Get Ready for Philly Fans...

I found this little gem with submitted stories attesting to what may be regarded as the worst sports fans ever:

The writer is now asking for Tampa-related horror stories, so be prepared for Kansas idiots and UCiFers to slander us via E-Mail.

GO PHILLIES!!

Phillies fans are a lot more tame than Eagles and Flyers fans. I have never really figured out why that is, but it seems to be that way.

The Phillies also have been one of the worst franchises in the history of MLB over the past century. Not just the last decade like the Rays.  So there fan base is pretty weak.  They aren't going to travel like Red Sox and Yankee fans.  Red Sox fans are the biggest travelers in MLB and even they could only muster 5K or so fans in the Trop per game in the ALCS. 

Its a non issue this series.

you answered your own question in your next paragraph.  The phillies are the most losingest (is that a word?) franchise in any sport.  they been around for well over 100 years and won 1 world series I believe, in 1980.

Phillies fans are dirt bags.

I hung out with Pat Burrell and Chase Utley for like 3 hours at MacDintons on St. Pattys day when they were in spring training. 

I watched them take about 12 shots and smoke about a pack of butts each.  Hopefully they will frequent the tampa night life during the series. 

Pat Burrell was one of the funniest drunks i ever met.

Except that many of us are simultaneously Flyers, Eagles, and Phillies fans. 

BTW: The Phillies have a long tradition of losing, but we also hosted an average of 42,254 fans at Citizens' Bank Park, good for 5th in MLB.  The Rays? 22,259 a game / 26th best. 

Cheers.  :cheers GO PHILLIES!!!!!
