Jill Biden Joins Sarah Palin, Ben Simmons, and Legions of Others as Philadelphia Booing Recipients
We touched on this very briefly after the game, but Jill Biden was at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday night and got booed pretty badly by the Philly crowd. Now she and Sarah Palin have something in common.
This took place before the game, so there’s nothing to pull from the television broadcast, but this is the clip we got from the NFL with the fight song going over the PA system:

There’s a doctored version making the rounds on Twitter, which basically lifts this video and replaces the audio.
Talking to some people who were at the game, however, like actual real human beings, they said the boos were pretty loud before the song started. “Jill Biden is getting destroyed pregame,” said one of the EYEWITNESSES.
Here’s a clip confirming that:

lol at the lady screeching “Let’s go Brandon” at the end of the clip.
Crossing Broad does not have a political stance, even though 50% of people think we’re MAGA and the other 50% seem to think we’re soy boy libs. Regardless, it is objectively fascinating for a Democrat Eagles fan to go to a game in the bluest part of a blue state, in her home territory, and get booed. The optics are incredible, if you think about it. This would be like Ron DeSantis going to a Florida Gators game and the crowd absolutely letting him have it.
