Fans react to the announcement that Osama was killed even though it was the bottom of the ninth in a tie game. Interesting. I was unaware that Philly fans were able to do anything but boo..

Of course they can do more than just booing, they can riot, throw snow balls at santa and swear a blue streak like it's their job.

That was cool, you have to feel for the players though. They were one of the last to find out the news, I am sure when this was going on they were wondering what in the world was happening.

I didn't know until I got to work Monday morning. People at work were talking about it and I was like ?? .. ?? .. !! ..

A very small minority of fans in Philly are truly as bad as the media and others make them sound. I am an avid Flyers Fan and Phillies who lives near Philly, I am also a (I hate to admit this of late) a huge Redskins Fan. I go to Philly to watch the Skins and have never had an issue. There are a few who really behave like that in fact the "Great Snowball" incident was only a few fans it wasn't like it was everyone or even half of the stadium. And by the way the team was 2-11 at that point and there were over 54,000 (in a stadium that held about 60,000) in attendance that day watching the game. I enjoy picking on Eagles Fans as much as the next guy, maybe even more since I deal with them everyday. But one thing I will never say is the fan base is all bad and that there fans aren't passionate.

Wheres the booing or bad stuff.

I'm going to point out that I'm a Cleveland fan, so picking on the Philly fans is really more like light ribbing due to this city being the reason for booze laws in two sports.
