A Question From An Italian Fan


OmerBG

Recommended Posts

The Philadelphia fans are known for being extremely rude and violent. There are no "neutral/away" sections in the NFL so you will be around them. It may be best to dress impartially to avoid fights or having beer spilled on you. Just be aware of your surroundings and avoid large groups of unsupervised Eagle fans in the Parking areas.

This is one of the more entertaining things I have read on here in awhile....extremely violent? be aware of your surroundings? avoid large groups of unsupervised Eagle fans? hahahhahahahahahahahhahahahaha Good stuff.

Much of the rude treatment people get in opposing stadiums is brought on by themselves. Sure you can come up against a drunk or rowdy fan or a group of folks looking to stir things up but my experience in most stadiums is if you are respectful to them most of them will be respectful to you. Philly is a blue collar town where the fans take their football seriously and they are die hard fans. They love their Eagles and will talk junk. If you are alone and talk a bunch of smack back, the situation will escalate. But if you are with some Eagle fans and don't act like a jerk, most folks will treat you okay. If the Panthers win you shouldn't gloat because honestly that makes any home fan mad. If the Eagles win expect some ribbing and comments. After all you are in their stadium and need to act accordingly. But as Johnny Rockets said, it isn't the Vet and there are much better security measures in and around the stadium.

Fortunately i'm not from North Carolina and would never go to a shithole like Philadelphia. Hopefully for the good man from Italy he will catch the game and the 1st flight out of town.

Fortunately???Ha

yeah okay? Where are you from?

I've been to 47 states, NC is Top 5 hands down....sorry your state sucks....

Fortunately for us you're a Redskins fan....Why are you here again?

Philadelphia may not be the prettiest city, but it's sure as hell a better city than Baltimore and DC...

HOLY SH*T. The Huddle, supposed to be full of the best Panther fans around, is encouraging NOT wearing Panthers' gear to an away game? F*K the A HOLES in Philly, represent your team. This is why we get punked when teams like the Eagles and the Steelers come to Carolina. You act like a bunch of GOD DAMN 9 YEAR OLD GIRLS SOMETIMES. Fine, why don't one of you guys send him a warm sweater and I nice Chianti he can tailgate with.

What your saying is you would renounce the Panthers under threat of a beer (which the stupid philly fan probably paid 8 bucks for) being poured on your head? How many times do I have to call you fatty before I get your lunch money?

Hey guys, i was come back yesterday from my USA trip, finally this time was a NFL oriented trip! it was Amazing, i've seen 3 NFL Games, ( Colts@NE, Panthers@Phila and Pittsburgh@Baltimore)

cause of what i read here, i didnt know if wear or not my Carolina Jersey, but at the end i decided to wear it, and there were no problems at all... when i arrived to the stadium in my mind was thinking " im the only Panthers fan tonight!" but once i was inside i've seen a pair of people with Smith Jersey, so i make a pic with one of them... while we were doing it, 2 other guys came to us and said " here we go, here we go, we come out with a W tonight!" they were right!!!!

once i arrived to my seat near me were 2 guys that look me in a strange way, but after the first touchdown they give me 5, and in front of me there were 2 other people with Newton's Jersey... so i was in a sort of little group of Panthers Fan!

i was in row 16 on the 40, and was behind the Panthers Sideline, so once the game was nearly finish, Smith start talking to some people near me with Carolina Jersey, and he saw me lift my arm and respond me! it was a really good emoction for me! he is my idol since i start watching Football!

at the end i was so happy about all, right when i bought tickets i hoped for a game between 2 teams fighting for a PO spot, and watching Cam vs Vick, but what really matter was the W, and we got it!

it was so strange how u live ur stadium, i mean in Italy its completely different, u cant put home fans n away fans in same place or u get a Fight every game! i really like this experience, like the Trash Talk during the game too with other fans it was cool!

hope next time i can come to Bank of America Stadium, maybe for a PO game!

ps: sorry for the english, porbably i made some mistake

That is awesome! Great to hear some positive experiences from an international Panther fan, not too many good stories these days on the Huddle. Glad you enjoyed and I hope you get to make it to Bank of America Stadium in the future.

ok guys, thanks for advices... in italy usually during the games, you cannot wear away's jersey if you stay with home fans... here the risk to have fight is high...

i've been in NY, for Nets @ Knicks and in Miami for Thunder @ Heat (with Westbrook jeresey) without problem... but i will follow your advices! i will be there without any jersey!

Lol

    • It's also worth noting that Cam himself said that he felt safer when running vs. sitting in the pocket because he could see the contact coming and could better prepare for it. A QB running the ball doesn't have to be a sledgehammer. He just has to be effective.
    • That Falcons game is about as good as it gets. Especially on the road. I know the Falcons defense was bad but he was cooking with Coker, an undrafted rookie get the bulk of the receptions. If your QB has 5 TDs and 0 turnovers he is playing like a top QB, yardage be damned. The big question for me is how consistently can be play the whole season?  I don’t expect a game like that every week, but I also don’t want to see any performances like the pre benching or that Cowboys game (which was bad post benching). Bryce’s best shot at being the guy is becoming a mini-Burrow who is about as consistent as you can get at the QB position.  The good news is this QB class should be a fun one. So hopefully Bryce becomes the guy, if not it’s a nice class to let DC pick his QB and they should come into a great situation with a good OL, RB, young talented WRs etc…
    • Bryce Young is far less risky with his body when he runs than Richardson and doesn’t take many unnecessary big hits. Was much more worried about injury when he had that abysmal OL his rookie season than I ever would be when he runs/scrambles. 500/10 seems like a fairly reasonable prediction considering he had 250/6 in 12 starts last season. Of course literally anybody CAN get hurt, it’s just that we were assured by many huddlers that it was a sure thing with Bryce Young that he wouldn’t make it to this point in his career without significant injuries.
