TaylorBanksCarsonVanPelt Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I am looking for people to hang out with before the game you know tailgate and stuff is anyone else going??? I remember back in 93' I was boarding an AMTRAK train in Philadelphia and the conductor makes it his business to tell me that I would not be wearing my Giants jacket if they were losing. I looked him in the face and said "well there is the difference between Eagles and Giants fans right there....we support our guys even when they are losing....and we are not Cowboys or 49'er homer fans"; then I asked "Do you cheer for the Eagles when they are losing?". He walked off without an answer. Philadelphia is one of those places with a NY inferiority complex the size of a mountain. Fuck em. I think you could actually enjoy the game watching it anywhere but there....but you would be better off watching it on TV IMO...good luck...and yes take all of the Giants stuff off of your car. You paid for it and you do not need some Philly asswipe fucking up your ride for bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to plenty of Giants games in Philly, and I'll be there this weekend - it's really not that bad. As long as you don't make a scene, I doubt you'll have any problems. I've seen a few people get their asses kicked at games, but they all did something to provoke it. Then again, it's a 4:30 start and that allows a lot of time for people to get shitfaced drunk. This greatly increases the chance that something could happen. If you're really worried about it, just don't wear any Giants gear. You're gonna get mocked, you're gonna get insulted, you're gonna get taunted...you might even get a thing or two thrown at you. There's tons of parking down at the Sports Complex...some lots are closer than others, but none are more than a 5-10 minute walk from the stadium.

Lubeck Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Philadelphia is one of those places with a NY inferiority complex the size of a mountain. Philly was this countries biggest city at first, the cultural center, and even the capital. Then NY, those uppity little bastards across the nations landfill had to go and become the capital, and then the commercial hub, and eventually the cultural center. Somehow the retards down in Philly still hold a grudge about that, even though they are totally ignorant to WHY they hold that grudge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow the retards up in NY obsess over Philly and Philadelphians, while Philadelphians for the most part could really care less about NY or New Yorkers. Strange that these all knowing New Yorkers could be so completely ignorant about that, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I think it is a mutual hatred between the two cities. It even spreads to North and South jersey, each taking allegience to their respective metro area.

It was sarcasm...I figured New Yorkers, being omniscient and all, would easily pick up on that. <--- That was more sarcasm, get it? And no, I don't think there's a mutual hatred at all. New Yorkers seem to hate Philadelphians, but I can't say it goes both ways. Like I said, for the most part, Philadelphians just don't give a shit.

That has more to do with alcohol than anything. And you're kidding yourself if you think fans of every team don't knock around opposing fans at games. I've seen it happen myself at Giants Stadium. But that's beside the point, I'm not even talking about football. NYers seem to have this obsession with people from Philly. You mention Philadelphia (not even sports) and they'll go on a rant and throw a shitfit. The reverse isn't true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
