I don't know why we were even debating sports though. It isn't that close honestly. All I was getting at is that not all Eagles fan's are bullies beating people up. Any contest between NFC East teams is a highly emotional affair for each respected fan base. So.. to set this thread straight (and turn the page again) here is a video of Nirvana playing at JC Dobbs a couple weeks after their first CD came out and they weren't famous yet.
JC Dobbs is closed now, but in it's heyday in the 80s'/90s' it saw the likes of Nirvana, Rage against the Machine, Pearl Jam, Oasis, Green Day, and many others who were not famous yet.
90% of Cowboy's fans in the Philly area are straight up white trash. They go there looking for trouble. Not excusing the crap Eagles fans as their are definitely some morons. At the game you were at:
it is worth noting you can find plenty of videos of fans from most teams acting like the awful people they are.
The absolute worst fans imo, particularly the Eagle fans. Experienced them first hand. The most recent, the Cowboys - Eagles game in September 2015. Cursing, fighting, throwing things. Even throwing things at the players, coaches and refs as they went to the locker rooms at halftime. Many Cowboys fans were in attendance. Couldn't even concentrate on the game with Eagle fans harassing people. Near our group they weren't even paying attention to the game. Just busy being ugly and harrassig people. Even security had to intervene. This is not passion. And we know their reputation through the years.
Oh please... this is complete BS and you know it. I've been to well over 40 games at this point between the Phillies, Eagles, Sixers and Flyers and sure, I've seen fans giving people a hard time, but never to the extent you are describing.
Either way, Philly fans are really no worse than many other fans including Dallas, Pittsburgh, Oakland, San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, NYC, Baltimore, Seattle, etc. etc. Really are bad fans everywhere. And you can find examples everywhere through Google or YouTube. This is a stereotype that Philly fans are some weird, extra-bad fans... but they're really not. It's just a rumor that you, and others, continue to perpetuate.
Has anyone ever died or been permanently brain damaged after a fight with Philly fans? SF Giants fans killed a Dodgers fan and Dodgers fans put a Giants fan in a coma.

There was also a San Francisco 49s fan that killed an New Orleans Saints (?) fan a few years back... and a Lakers fan killed another fan in LA a few years back... and I believe a Miami Heat fan did as well. This **** happens all the time, it's not just Philadelphia fans. It's nothing but a perpetuated stereotype.
I don't know if anyone in Philly has died over fan nonsense honestly. Plenty of fist fights but no deaths that I can think of off of the top of my head.
