Philly Fans Boo Every NHL Team and Commissioner During 2014 NHL Draft

Philadelphia Flyers fans are very loyal, and they made sure to give the rest of the NHL teams and the commissioner a hard time during the 2014 NHL draft.

With the event taking place in Philadelphia, the Flyers fans were rowdy often. While teams were being announced at the beginning, the fans replied with "sucks!" after each team was called.

It didn't stop there.

When the Pittsburgh Penguins were announced, the Flyers fans booed especially loud.

Stay classy Philly

The Eagles didn’t have any problem scoring points last night, but one of their fans wanted to make sure they stayed a leg up.

According to NBC Philadelphia, a woman wearing Eagles gear stole a prosthetic leg from a local street musician before last night’s game.

It was found around 1 a.m. when a subway driver found it at the end of the Broad Street Line.

Vietnam veteran Sonny Forriest Jr., was performing outside Lincoln Financial Field when he said a woman in her 20s took his leg.

“She jumped in my lap,” Forriest Jr. said. “She gripped my leg and I didn’t even know it. I looked down and she took my leg! Then she disappeared! A young lady came up, snatched my leg off my chair and took off!”

Investigators said at least three women might have been involved in the theft.

There’s no word as to whether they planned to trade it to Detroit to take over kicking duties for the Lions.

So that is why Philly smell like that. 

A Pennsylvania girl’s Sweet 16 party was ruined Sunday when a torrent of human feces, dumped from a passing airplane, splattered all over the tables, chairs and decorations, got into the pool where people were swimming, and sent family members running for cover.


The only thing that didn’t end up with poop on it was the cake, which had fortunately been taken inside before the incident.

“We just got done with cake thank God, we took the cake back in, because within two minutes, something fell from the sky, it was brown, it was everywhere, it got on everything,” a guest at the Levittown, Pa., party told MyFoxPhilly.
About 40 people were affected by the literal shitstorm, but no one has determined exactly where it came from.

According to a family member who looked up flights on a smartphone app, there were 5 planes in the area at the time, any one of which could have bespoiled that sweetest of birthdays, the sixteenth, with its foul cargo.
The FAA is investigating.

I'm guessing he wandered into North Philly and saw his untimely demise... just like everything else does there.

Someone took "San Francisco or bust" a little too literally.
