I really want to limit posts about Philly fans, but this happened to me today, and I have to post it. I was walking to class today, and I was in a rush, and I was also wearing a Mets shirt. A guy walking the opposite way on a side walk wearing and Eagles Jersey was on his cell phone, saw me and said basically this, “Wait hold on a second (now looking at me) HAHAHAHAHAHAHA you're a Mets' fan!”
If I wasn't in a rush, I probably would have said something that later on in the night I would have regretted. But honestly this supports the that aspect of Philly fans that they are obsessed with Mets fans. If we beat out the Phillies to make it in the playoffs, at least speaking for myself, if I passed a Philly fan, I would not say what he said to me.
I don't know if he is a recent Philly fan, who is now glad to flaunt it because of their recent status, because I do have a hard time believing that fans of a team that understand cycles in baseball would act that way.
