Any resonable person whould know these thing happen everywhere in every stadium to one degree or another, are we somewhat over the top on game day? hell yeah!, and you would be hard pressed to find a single fan in Philly who isn't proud of that the fact that we are serious about it but enough with the Bullshit.   Well hey Landryhat, it’s guy’s like you who need to stay the

Okaaay. As for the batteries, I doublechecked and it was Phillies fans at the Vet who did this. So I guess technically it wasn't eagles fans.  The quote is: "Two years later, fans threw D-Cell batteries at <a href="http://insidetheiggles.com/wiki/St._Louis_Cardinals" title="St. Louis Cardinals" rel="nofollow">St. Louis Cardinals</a> outfielder <a href="http://insidetheiggles.com/wiki/J.D._Drew" title="J.D. Drew" rel="nofollow">J.D. Drew</a> after he spurned the Phillies' offer to play with them, and wound up going back into the draft and picked by the Redbirds." The source is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veterans_Stadium" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veterans_Stadium</a> Again, nobody is claiming that there aren't shitty, violent fans everywhere. The claim is that there are a higher percentage of them in Philly, and that the shitty fans who ARE there tend to be worse off.  The vast majority of eagles fans are fine.  But in my experience your bad apples are more common and tend to be worse than at other places. That Ian wants to see football players dead or paralized or crippled for life only reinforces this stereotype, which is why I say over and over again that he is doing a huge disservice to all of you eagles fans.

HBO's Inside the NFL featured a stadium this PAST SEASON for fan violence... wanna guess which one it was. It was the NJ Giants beloved Ghettolands.   Only stadium I personally have been afraid for my safety in. Fedex field when my GF and I got chased by 3 drunked A-holes threatening to kick our asses for having audacity to ask them for directions in their stadium. Do I blame ALL giants fans and ALL redskin's fans? NOPE. Do I realize that ALL teams and all stadiums can have A-hole's in them looking for trouble. You bet your ass I do.
