The Philadelphia Phillies decided to lose a few games in Washington over the weekend, and for some reason thousands of their fans decided to make the trip to see the beatdown in person.

This has become a trend whenever the Phillies are in town, with their fans occupying a huge portion of the stadium. As per the stereotypical reputation for Philly fans, they do a lot of booing, mainly of the Nationals, even during super classy times like when the team was being introduced during a pregame ceremony on Opening Day last year.

I went to the game on Saturday with my brother, Pat, and we were able to witness a rare moment in sports — both fan bases booing the same player. If you aren’t familiar with either team, Washington right field Jayson Werth used to play in Philly and this year has been terrible for the Nats:

The great thing about hearing the Philly fans boo is that Werth did nothing but a favor to them. He signed a big contract as a free agent, doing zero harm to the Phillies, and given his performance this year I’m not sure what exactly they are mad about.

There’s an old anecdote about Philly fans booing anyone, even Santa Claus. Well, after Saturday you can add George Washington to the list:

Sure, some of those boos were from Nats fans who wanted Teddy Roosevelt to get his first ever win, but given the number of Phillies fans in attendance it had to be mostly them.

Another thing I don’t understand about that fan base is their desire to grab the Nationals-related promotional items. Last year I saw thousands of Phillies fans pick up their free Nats hats on Opening Day. On Saturday, the first 15,000 fans got an Ian Desmond bobblehead. That’s Ian Desmond, shortstop for the Nats. I don’t think I saw a single Washington fan with a bobblehead — just those from Philly.

I know if I went up to see a game at Philadelphia’s Citizens Bank Park and it was Shane Victorino bobblehead day, I certainly wouldn’t take one. Why would I possibly want it?

Just more proof that Philadelphia, and its fans, are crazy.
