    We threw snowballs at Santa and we can't spell typing on phones! And those Miami fans are so amazing. Walking out of the NBA Finals before the game is over, booing the best player in hockey after they won a championship, always bringing those oh so original john 3-16 signs, never even coming close to halfway filling their dumb indoor baseball stadium. Man I wish we were more like them.
    Nothing is more douchy than a bunch of fans complaining about other fans. But sure, you guys are the best fans ever and no one has more of a right to criticize other cities than Philly.  The irony is thick.  
    Which is literally what you and your generic uninformed cohort of people constantly do to Philly.
    Let's rewind... the only reason I ever said a word about Philly fans is because of the comments made against the Panthers fans by the Philly person(s) here.   To reiterate, I hate the Panthers.  I am a Lightning fan and they are our rivals.  But the pretentious comments of Philly fans (ANY FANS) insulting another group of fans of not being legit, real, whatever, chaps my ass.  So if you guys would stfu about the digs at Panther fans, I would do the same.  
    But my two examples were a good reason why they are a shitty fan base. And those two reasons came from an event two weeks ago, not 60 years ago.   They let up to 20% or more of their seats be sold to an opposing teams fans in game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals. is there another fan base in the NHL that would happen? I can't think of one.   And I didn't like the booing of the Conn Smythe award.  And if that happened in Philly i'd call it out as well.
    it's ICE hockey. in FLORIDA. a co worker of mine used to go down to florida every winter, would get rink side seats, a hot dog, and a beer all for $25. and the place was still nearly empty. You don't change that shit overnight. I'd say their fanbase is doing pretty well all things considered. 

    I agree with mrussel1. shitting on an entire fanbase is pretty stupid. 
    You just brought back a memory.  In the early 90s, the Lightning played in what can be described as a barn.  It was at the old Expo Center on I-4 next to the jail, on the fairgrounds.  We would literally be on the glass for $20.  It was great, really.  I mean the team sucked, but you could see Dino Ciccarelli get into a fight for no apparent reason every night.

    here’s my thoughts on philly fans…they are very passionate and, for the most part, knowledgeable. maybe a little delusional, too. they MAY have a few more knuckleheads in the bunch than average but I chalk that up to philly + passion + alcohol.

    I hate the fan bases that only turn up when their teams are any good.

    I am so tempted to start a “shitty fan bases” thread. I can think of a few…

    No that's good thinking.  I am a firm believer in stereotypes, whether it's where you live, who you root for, your color, your religion; trying to make broad generalizations about millions of people you don't know, have never met, is always the way to go.  Good luck with that.

    Holy shit. I follow CBJ a bit because I grew up in Columbus and was excited when they took out Tampa some years ago. I didn’t know a lot about Johnny except that he was a good player on a pretty bad team. Horrible news.

    Man so horrible. Another fitness person (2) taken down by an idiot driver. It’s never worth the risk, putting a bicycle on a road used by autos. All it takes is one idiot driving in low light, drinking, sneezing or a medical event. Gone in one second. We ride bikes to improve our health, yet when taken on the roads, it’s one of the riskiest moves we could take in everyday life.

    Probably gonna win the cup too
    Anyway 1st Canes game tonight
    Love the start of the season, hate the cold weather that comes with it.
