The Worst Phans in Baseball

That would be the assholes who follow the Philadelphia Phillies.  And you don't need to tell you that.  Google "Phillie Fans" and watch how many articles show up with tales of horrific behavior from this herd of neanderthals and miscreants.

I was reminded anew of this phenomenon this week when the team invaded Dodger Stadium.  Their supporters came out like cockroaches when you shine a flashlight on the baseboard of a South Bronx apartment.  One more obnoxious than the next.

Complicating the issue, of course, is the fact that their team is currently perhaps the best in baseball.   Postseason play will be wasted on these fans, who clearly don't deserve any good fortune. 

I've never had the misfortune of visiting Citizen Bank Asylum but friends who have tell me they were thoroughly insulted and appalled at the behavior of the shitheads who call that stadium a home.  For all the endless chatter about the guy who got beaten up in the Chavez Ravine on Opening Day, the atmosphere at Phillie home games remains the most insidious in all of Major League Baseball. 

These pictures don't lie.

As much as I don't like the Giants, I truly feel sorry for them in this photo from last year's playoffs.  The good news is that these creeps ultimately did not get the last laugh.  San Francisco shut them up for a while in 2010.

You'll notice that most of them are overweight, but what would you expect from a city that eats nothing but cheesesteak sandwiches for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

No discussion about Phillie fans is complete without this piece of shit.  He's a former winner of my "Moron of the Month" award.  Arrested for projectile vomiting onto a little girl.  At a Phillie game.  I love the fact that his mug shot shows him wearing a Phillie t-shirt.

Along with the terrible fan base, let's not forget their team mascot.  The Phillie Phanatic who is about as funny as having an enema with Liquid Plumber.

It's good to see that they're carding kids for alcohol purchase in Philadelphia.

Game disruptions are not only applauded, but encouraged by this den of thieves and thugs.

Charming...

So, for sheer culture, Philadelphia fans still have to revert back to a movie from 1976.  Featuring an actor who could barely grunt English.

I hope you weren't waiting for this cab.

When it comes to the Philadelphia Phillie phan base, I do have this phastasy. 

If this country has to endure another attack from terrorists, please make Citizen Bank Prison the prime target.  And please time it for the fifth inning of Fan Appreciation Day.

Dinner last night:  Barbecue spare ribs and broccoli slaw from Pavillions.
