This happened at CBP at some point over the weekend:

“You’re a pussy! Get that motherfucker out of here!”

I spot three Ls right off the bat.

1) Braves fan is wearing a bucket hat. 2) He has pillow hands. He throws a right cross at a Phillies fan who is not defending himself, but doesn’t knock him down or do any real damage at all. 3) The cops are waiting for him at the top of the stairs. That’s gotta be embarrassing. You punch a guy, he takes it with no problem, then he gets the ‘ole police escort out of there.

Notice, as well, that the Phillies fan does not throw a punch back at him, nor does this guy get mobbed by a group of fans and beaten up 2v1, 3v1, or in some other lopsided fashion. That’s because Philadelphia sports fans are better behaved and than the scumbags you see elsewhere. Phillies fans took the high road here. If this was San Francisco or Dallas, someone would have been knocked out with a sucker punch or stabbed at a fast food joint. They would have picked up a folding chair and bashed someone over the head. I’d say good job by Phillies fans keeping their composure here. If this was Veterans Stadium 30 years ago, Braves fan would have barely made it out of there. But we’ve grown and evolved and we exhibit emotional intelligence as a fan base. Will the fake news national media report on that?
