Unfortunately, this type of behavior is not limited to just Philadelphia Eagles fans. I have been to both a Phillies and a Sixers game where the same pattern of of verbal and physical abuse also occurs. It is not just limited to the football team.

All Eagles fans are pathetic losers.....those who can't realize that football is only a game to be enjoyed and resort to inappropriate behavior and those who stand by and do nothing about it.

>>>"While sometimes Philly's bad reputation is unwarranted"

I think this very article and incident proves decisively that the reputation IS warrented.

>>>"I think Philadelphia often gets a bad reputation and other cities continually point towards the Santa garbage"

I wonder why that is? The Santa "garbage." So the Santa incident wasn't much of anything was it? You (the author) are as distasteful as the rest of Philly fans.

I was at an Eagles game last year vs. the Packers. My husband & I are Packer fans and it's hard to get to Green Bay to see a game, where as Philly is a mere hour away. Needless to say, these people were ruthless. I got pushed around and had many things said to me hich caused my husband to almost get into many fights that day. To top it off, I was pregnant at the time and it didn't even matter. We will go again this year, but I am not pregnant and able to defend myself so I'm ready for those a$$holes this time. Real tough guys, pushing around a pregnant woman because she has a Packers jersey on. Gimme a break... LOSERS!!

Removed from the area and now living in Seminole FL, I was proud to read "Use guys" are continuing the tradition of letting the opposing fans know what is considered suitable attire while attending an "IGGLES" Game.

Considering the Media always makes mention of our PASSION, those stinking New Yorkers should know better!

HA! My cousin is a Giants fan living in Philly...He tells me Philly fans are all Bark and no Bite...Of course my cousin is 6'4'' 230 lbs. Try and push him around next Giants/Eagles game you losers.

I guess they (people who are complaining about Eagles Fans) can't handle tough guys. HAHAHA. I never had this problem at either Eagles or Giants games. I guess I'm sitting in good spot among with good people.

I have lived in many cities all over the country and nowhere else have I witnessed the kind of city pride as the people of philadelphia. Athough I do not agree with resorting to violence over a football game, I have been to a number of eagles games in south philly throughout my lifetime and never have seen an eagles fan instigating a fight. If you walk up to a drunk eagles fan with a cowboys jersey on and say something like "our team going to kick your ass" you're just asking to get your own ass kicked. that's just the way philly is, if you don't like it...don't go to our stadium.

I couldn't agree more with the article. The fans ARE crazy. Sad thing is you don't even need to wear an opposing team's jersey to have similar incidents happen to you. I'm from South Jersey, USED to be an Eagles fan and cancelled my 100 level season tickets after a ridiculous situation last year. My fiance was being harassed WHILE WEARING HER JEVON KEARSE jersey by a couple of guys behind us. Me, 6'4" 240, decided to be a gentleman about it and asked security to address the situation... which they DIDN'T. At halftime, the 3 "gentlemen" (BLITZED out of their minds, by the way) decided it would be fun to wait for my fiance at the exit of the ladies room and harass her up close and personal (touching and grabbing her). Thank God I was waiting for her close by and was able to intervene before she was assaulted. That's when one of the "gentlemen" decided to take a swing at me. Luckily drunk people tend to have agility problems. Long story short, an altercation ensued, two of the "gentlemen" ran away before security showed up and security wanted NOOOO PART in doing ANYTHING about prosecuting the remaining "gentleman". I was actually told I was lucky I wasn't being arrested basically because I was capable of defending myself. End result. The Eagles organization did NOTHING to ensure an incident like this wouldn't happen again. Saddest thing is that I've heard too many stories concerning "fans" harassing and assaulting others and every story ends just like mine. Lincoln Financial Field and The Eagles organization does everything it can to wash its hands of these situations and make it as difficult as possible for the victims to seek justice.

Ah, the Eagles fans. 46 years and they have never had a celebration because they've won NOTHING and never will. Meanwhile every other team in the NFC East has won AT LEAST two superbowls each. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of morons, the single digit IQ Iggles fans!

Philadelphia fans are in general, a bunch losers like their sports teams. They give new dimensions to the term SORE LOSERS. They reflect the culture and tastes of Philadelphia admorably. Every year, their subpar teams feel the sting of defeat. And how do they respond? By physically assaulting the fans of the victorious team in a drunken mob. Brilliant! Personally, I'd love to see another city, (Dallas comes to mind), bring a group of Scottish Soccer Hooligans in for protection, and to give those lousy Philly (perpetual losers)Fans a beat down they will never forget. They have it coming, beleive me! 23 years without a championship in any sport! You think they would get use to it. LOSERS!!!! Hahahaha

You know it's sad when you can't go to the opposing teams stadium to watch a simple football game! Banning alcohol would at least minimize the problem. But,as long as they have a**holes in this world,it will never end.

YOU GO TO A FOOTBALL GAME WITH THE OPPOSING TEAMS WEAR AND YOU MOUTH OFF, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT. TRY THAT IN ANY OTHER CITY AND SEE WHAT YOU GET. MOST OF THE PROBLEM IS THE ONES COMPLAINING ARE FROM "NEW YORK" COME TOO GAMES LOOKING FOR TROUBLE. YES THERE ARE A FEW CASES OF THE GREATEST "FANS" "EAGLE FANS" GETTING OUT OF HAND BUT GIVE ME A BREAK. THE MORON'S ON TV WHO STARTED THIS "SANTA" THING SHOULD APPOLIGIZE TO US EAGLE FANS FOR ALL THAT GARBAGE. BY THE WAY GO TO "GIANTS GAMES" IN NEW YORK AND SEE IF YOU DON'T GET MOBED. "EAGLE FANS" BACK THERE TEAM, WIN OR LOOSE NOT MOB PREGNANT WOMAN.GET USE TO IT PHILLY IS OUR TOWN. "GO EAGLES GO"

Oh I do have to comment on the one guy that said bring in the Soccer Hooligans to Phila to clean house. It's CLEAR to me...you've never been here they wouldn't last till half time. Lets make one thing clear here.... the people here are NUTS! Soccer Hooligans would have NO SHOT here at all....NONE!

You have to remember there's nothing here in Phila. AS IN NOTHING! It's an a$$ backward city and some people just need to hang their hats on to SOMETHING.... so they use this"WE'REa tough city" crap to make themselves feel better for being stuck in a DUMP like this. I live here (sad very sad) and I
'm an Eagles fan but I've been able to go to see games in other cities and it's a pretty normal way to see a game. This place however is what it is. But think about it for a second. The Eagles have never really done much of anything so why even if you did have this on "passion" for yourteam what is it REALLY based on? No the reason it's the way it is here is because this is a crappy place to live full of losers who have no pride in living here because there isn't anything to be proud off so that act like morons any chance they get.... GO EAGLES!

Eagles fans always have been, and probably always will be, flat out scumbags. They actually take pride in the ignorant violence.
