E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!! Birds - Packers Playoff game thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
I've always disliked the Packers, but now I loathe them....trying to hurt Saquon when they knew they had lost. That's a scum franchise of Meat Packers.
They’d get the higher seeded Vikes. Detroit get lowest remaining seed.

That’s a tough loss. I hope his recovery prognosis is good.
Thoughts on this???
On one hand, one clown giving the rest of the fans a bad name is not cool and I wish people could just be civil.
on the other hand, this is an every Sunday occurrence in the 200 level. Standard. What can you expect when you come into a playoff game with the opposing teams gear on?? And we have no clue what precluded this interaction. Was she being rude all game?? All I’m saying is 2 sides to the story. And to put this on social media in hopes to find this dude and get him banned from the stadium?? FOR SAYING MEAN THINGS!?!?!? Freaking weak…..

My only thought on this is I can't ever, ever imagine myself or anyone I know acting like this anywhere at anytime.
If you are going to act like a jackass under the premise that it's ok because it's an NFL game, I have no problem if you get outed on social media.
Dude is likely gonna get fired from his job, not just lose his tickets...and he deserves every bit of what's coming to him.
And the fact that everyone around him just rolls with it is completely pathetic.
So let me first say that I don’t condone this at all. That dude was being a dyck pure and simple. But to lose one’s job because they said something mean? I don’t see how that’s anywhere close to proportional
Maybe you don't...but I'm guessing that BCT Partners will (assuming that he's been accurately identified).
Last time I was there (20+ years ago?), they had one tv and it was probably 24" from 1979. Hopefully they upgraded by super bowl. I'm sure that was a great place to watch.
The dude that was verbally abusing the female Packer's fan was an a-hole.
As you noted, this kind of stuff does happen every Sunday, in every stadium (not just the Linc), when you wear a uniform of the opposing team to the game.
From my experience at Birds' games, surrounding fans don't get too involved in these situations. An exception is if a person is cursing a lot, and there are kids nearby, folks usually tell the idiot to stop with the language.
The other thing to keep in mind is that throughout the game, there are announcements about a number to text or call if somebody in your section is acting inappropriately. I've seen people make those texts/calls, and security comes in fast and heavy to address the situation. It's possible that visiting fans weren't paying attention to those announcements (both on the loudspeaker and on the scoreboards), or didn't want to make a scene.
Also, 4:30 games, or evening games, especially when the weather is good (it was chilly, but a beautiful sunny day in Philadelphia on Sunday), do lead to a lot of folks that have drunk too much being in the stands. That doesn't excuse the behavior -- just explaining what I've observed many times.
