Minnesota travel, ticket agencies: 'Be warned' of Eagles fans, who are like 'gangs'

First comes the narration from reporter Rob Olson, who says Sunday "could be a fun day but also comes with a warning" and then doubles down on his weary approach from the get-go: "If you're planning to go to the game in Philly or even thinking about it, you should be warned."

If Vikings fans aren't scared from his introduction alone, they will be by the time Steve Erban, co-owner of Minnesota's Creative Charters travel agency, makes his appearance. Standing directly next to a Vikings flag while decked out in Vikings colors and a Vikings hat, Mr. Erban wastes no time casting an assumption over the entire Linc crowd with this gem: "So I would advise you not to be over-inebriated, because they will be."

Erban and his wife, Dorothy, who also has no qualms wearing a Vikings jacket on the segment, are apparently offering one-day flights to and from Philly for Sunday's conference title game, and that trip includes "guidance from them going into Lincoln Financial Field, which can be rough."

(Friendly reminder that, at this point in the program, there have yet to be any discussions of Vikings fans simply staying home to avoid such horrors.)

But if the Erbans don't leave you shaking in your shorts as a Minnesota fan eyeing a visit to Philadelphia, the Minneapolis-based Ticket King resale agency might. Up next in FOX 9's warm endorsement of Eagles faithful is Drew Baydala, who works for the ticket broker and has the most painful description of Birds fans yet: "If the Vikings win, yes, I would take off any sort of, like, colors. I know it sounds ridiculous like we're almost talking about gangs here, but it's no joke down in Philly. It really isn't."

As the segment returns to our "Twilight Zone" host, Rob Olson, we get one final reminder of Philly's daunting atmosphere: "Yeah, it gets pretty notorious out there."

 

 

 

Stay classy Philly fans.

And yet Philly "fans" can go to Dallas without worrying. Even if they make it up, in their story nothing happens to them.

Awesome I LOVE that other fans are scared of Philly. I went to the game in Dallas with my BDawk jersey and hat and got ripped no problems at all.

I love that the Philly cops are also scared of Philly and they are warning business to lock up their stores because of the riots.

Granted its a small sample size, but if you use this board as a microcosm of society, this all makes sense...some of the most antagonistic dbag geek trolls (newbie, phillybear, et al) are philly folks. And the special dbags like Newbie, revel in this status.

Pretty sure they all have a "jail". It's probably just a locked room though.
