    Have Philly Fans Lost Their Reputation?

    DateWednesday, November 19, 2008 at 07:16AM

    Are you looking to entertain a fan base that just won a World Series Championship?

    Luckily for the Philadelphia Phillies marketing staff, it won't take much effort anymore (or at least until the team loses a few games)...

    The fans of Philadelphia, once known for being the roughest, toughest, most vocal crowd in all of sports (a fan base who cheered when Michael Irvin was carted off the field, threw batteries at JD Drew, and booed VP candidate Sarah Palin) have suddenly turned into a jubilant group ever since the Phillies beat the Tampa Bay Rays in the World Series, ending 25 years of frustration.

    Case in Point? A baby (not named Obama) led cheers at the team's postseason party...

    Ask a Philly fan about the Eagles. They won't be so jubilant.
