Philly is pretty much the definition of a gritty, hard nosed, tough love, blue collared city.
You can let the national media portray whatever you want about how "mean" people can be, or how it's full of ruthless savages with no regard for human life, but anyone that has been here or lives here knows the passion and love for the sports teams is second to none.
I mean yes, much like NY the fans in Philly can be a little rough around the edges. You gotta have thick skin and a tough mentality to survive as an athlete in this city, there's no doubt about that. Otherwise you'll be eaten alive by the fans and especially the media lol.
i just feel like alot of sports towns define themselves the same way, similar to st louis
