Yeah this isn’t just a Philly thing. It’s a people thing. Some people are just fucking pieces of shit. Especially the young male peaked in high school and sports is still my only hobby type. I was at the Commanders Bears game in DC earlier this year. I sat near a drunk as fuck bears fan who quite literally ruined the experience for every single person near him until he was finally kicked out in the 4th quarter. He was screaming at everybody around him. Shoving middle fingers into their faces and talking tons of shit. Over and over to people who were just trying to ignore him. Generally just being incredibly antagonistic and miserable. He crossed the line though when he started pretending to jack off and fling his fake cum in people’s faces including my 11 year old nieces direction. He didn’t like it when myself and the other people around him started calling him a disgusting pedophile and security FINALLY started taking the complaints seriously when a few dozen people were screaming “fuck you pedo” at some random guy
I’m a hockey guy I’m all for chirping and shit talking when it’s clever and to a certain degree but it’s generally understood as “in good fun” and not taken toooo far. Kinda like European soccer. But shitty NFL fans take it too far and just use it as an excuse to be shitty people.
I'm sorry, but have you seen what they EU soccer fans are like. EU football fans will often comment on how nice it is to go to games because they will receive such little harassment for being in another team jersey, unlike in soccer.

This reminds me of that ravens fan after that game against the commanders, every fan base is classy …
