Why I LOVE Being a Philly Phan:o)

So many of u want to know what happened Thursday night that makes me never want to go back to the Bronx again, ever. Well here u go...

1) despite the history of the old "house that babe built" I never really had a desire to go to Yankee stadium, but since they re-built a new stadium for the Yankees I wanted to see what all the hype was about. I was sooooo disappointed! They have sections of bleachers instead of actual seats, the speed trap reading is on the jumbotron SO small u have to squint to read it, and worst of all, unless ur sitting behind home plate...ur view of the field most likely sucks.

2) To buy a tshirt or a hat you must walk up to the counter of geriatrics that have no idea what sizes r left. There are boxes everywhere in a complete disarray and after spending hundreds of dollars on apparel, they run out of bags. Excellent.

3) They serve nathans hot dogs in boxes which not only is a waste but pointless because after returning to your seat ur hot dog will inevitably be...cold. **only in New York would they put the number of calories on the menu next to each item!! Hilarious!** New Yorkers feast on things such as garlic fries, pizza and matza balls so not only do they have lack of better judgement in food, they have really bad breath.

3) Drunk girls in New York=sloppy. I had a girl behind me spill her beer all over the place and proceed to slur her words for most of the game until she got thrown out. Come on down to Philly, not only can a Philly girl handle her liquor but she is much more beautiful than any New Yorker:o)

4) Citizens Bank Park is a beautiful ballpark, it really is. WELL worth the money we spent on it. Not to mention it doesn't smell like a toilet like Yankee Stadium does. We take pride in the fact that our stadium was built for our fans, giving them a wide open view from any seat in the house.

5) In Philadelphia we take our sports a little bit more serious than these Yankee amateurs. We tailgate at least 3-4 hours before gametime, we DONT come to the games dressed in suits, peacoats and ties.
We also don't run out of beer a half hour after we get to the parking lot that charges $30 for parking.

6) Do your research. We know our competition. Don't yell out "Jayson Werthless" when u know he has had a great postseason and has become one of the most improved players. Don't yell out "Whose your daddy" to Pedro when you know damn right well you weren't yelling that out when your beloved CC shit the bed and Cliff Lee took over your precious stadium. And u know what, u might as well make some more signs for Jeter because aside from Teixeria and Matsui I didn't see A-Roid doing anything that was worth screaming about.

7) Lastly, have a little self respect as a city. What I saw Thursday night was classless and down right ignorant. I saw brass knuckles bashing into peoples heads, girls getting black eyes and others with blood all over their faces. Is that what you think baseball is about? Then again I'd be miserable too if I lived in a city of 30 million who hate each other. We drove away last night I looked down and saw the only thing left on the ground was a dirty Yankees hat with tire marks down the middle.

We're in that ILL state of mind and your empire isn't looking so strong these days. We are PROUD of our city<3
