But congrats on the win, it's nice to be champion of your country

ROFL!!! I agree...

BigAsh · 10-30-2008, 12:23 PM

Hahaha....I would tend to agree, except the shirt and hat I just bought clearly state "WORLD CHAMPIONS"....and I saw it on the internet, so it must be true....

!!! Though I'm pretty sure if we took the Phillies on a World tour they'd be kicking butt..Just as long as some of their players don't go back to their original countries.

they would probably do, but as long as the competition isn't open to non US teams, it's not a world league but just a national championship.

I was wondering about the game. Did you have tickets to the original game? Did you have to buy a ticket to watch the last 3 innings? I was wondering how that was handled.

All the tickets and official parking stubs from Monday were honored.

Wow, someone who's literally 15 minutes from me.

I'm glad the city didn't implode, aren't you?

Yea. It wasn't too bad around my neighborhood. I think overall everything was pretty good considering the amount of people. There were certainly a handful of assholes out there causing trouble but the media blows the things that do happen out of proportion and makes it seem like more bad things happened.

Throwing in my

as a fellow Philly BOTL. My neighborhood went freaken nuts right after the final pitch. People were running in the streets, banging pots and pans, lighting off fireworks. It’s a good feeling. Enjoy yourself tomorrow.
