first eagles game i ever went to.. i was 6, think it was 1989.

big snowstorm the day before. we were playing the Cowgirls (they sucked and were just about to get real good and get on their run)

People were pelting the Cowgirls sideline all day with snowballs. I remember seeing them hit players in the helmet.

I looked down at the level below and pointed out to my dad a 60 year old Eagles fan bashing a 20 year old Cowgirls fans' head into the pavement.

I wonder if growing up as a 700 level child contributed to my behavior as an adult.

How'd did that end up working out for you and them?

Did we make some sort of football bet in Tampa?

well in the 90's it worked out real well for the Cowgirls.

Since the 90's, Eagles have had a better run at it for sure.

Unfortunatly, the Eagles are allergic to trophy's so we just are not allowed to win superbowls.


did we make a bet? If we did, I'm sure I'm losing big time. please forgive my faulty memory.

Honestly Lori, I think there was a bet, but I don't remember what it was. Way to go out on that limb and assume that your're losing.

Ok this is just minor but said by I guess a 12 yr old at the Super Bowl in Indy this past year. "You suck Brady, I hope you die!"

that's great.

I cant tell you how many fights I've seen started when someone dares to wear another teams jersey to the game. And I do believe I learned all the curse words from Eagles games.

We are certainly a classless bunch in Philly... but I wouldnt trade my misery of loving Philly sports for anything.

Honestly, I've heard worse than that at Jets games when they were good. That was tame considering the way they played.

I'm a Redskins fan & was at the (in)famous "body bag" game in Philly...it was a bad night. Brian Mitchell ended up as QB. What a game.
