Phillies and Eagle Fans crushed by news of list

Phillies fans getting the news

Eagles fan upon hearing of list

The news came from a million sources: the internet, the radio, television, and word-of-mouth. "It was one of the most painful days in sports", said Gus Van Delear, a long-time Philadelphia Eagles fan and season-ticket holder. The news that has taken the sports culture of Phildelphia by storm is, of course, being named the worst fans in America by GQ magazine. "It has virtually consumed the Philadelphia sports fan. I'm not sure how we will get past this, but tomorrow is a new day, a chance for a fresh start," said Doug Wildart, a Phillies fan since age nine. The mood of the fandom in the city was one of gloom, but sports fans throughout the "City of Brotherly Love" seemed committed to make changes. "We really will address the way we behave at games, really look into our attitude. The city and the fans have been shamed on a level never thought possible. We really want to show the world and GQ magazine in particular, what truly gracious fans we are," said Van Delear.
