That would be the only way a philly fan could get them since they can use a credit card with a PA address.

I can't get into the Nats. I grew up Mets fan and became a fan of the O's when I moved to MD.

So The Nationals can change leagues and go bankrupt or ban Phillies fans and go bankrupt.
A lot do travel down to see them in DC....its not all that far from Philly, and with tickets at CBP being hard to get, its the next closest place along with NY. And now that Mets fans are not showing up like they used to with the team being a mess, you'll probably see a lot more Phillies fans showing up at Citi Field.

If the Phillies play the Orioles in an interleague series in Baltimore, will Oriole fans get bent out of shape if a lot of Philadelphians are in the stadium, or is this just a Washington thing?

Obviously NOT if the Orioles are not in the Phillies division. The Nats have to deal with tons of Phillies fans in their stadium several time during the season since they are in the same division.
