MKN asked:
I have been to many NFL games in many different stadiums, and I have watched thousands of games on TV. It’s my opinion that the Philadelphia Eagles have the highest fan base “jerk ratio” in the NFL. I’m basing this on such factors as shouting obscenities, throwing objects, drunkenness, physical fighting, and just general unruly behavior. They even used to have a courtroom and jail inside their stadium!

Obviously, I’m NOT saying most Eagles fans are jerks–that would be ridiculous. I’m sure most Eagles fans are perfectly nice. I’m just saying that a relatively high proportion of them are jerks compared to most other teams.
So, is the same thing true of the Philadelphia Phillies? Does their fan base have a high jerk ratio? Or are fans of the Phillies and Eagles two distinct groups that greatly differ from each other?

no philly fan is a jerk. were just more passionate then everyone else. people know the rules about going to a philly sports game. dont show up in other teams stuff unless you are ready to defend your love of that team. unlike places like florida where major sports don’t matter, there followed like a religion in philly. as my philly saying goes, love it or leave it.

The obnoxious Phillie fans are ex Red Sox bandwagoneers.
They found a new band wagon.
No true Phillie fan could ever be that obnoxious.

No. And I was about to give a fairly rude answer, but I read the whole thing, and idk. I mean, I’ve always been a huge Phillies and Eagles fan, and there are certainly SOME fans like that, but I don’t understand why we get stereotyped so much because in my opinion, we don’t have any more fans like that than anyone else.
