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.

The knuckle dragging neanderthalls always make good news fodder.

I caught the parade start right at the southwest corner of 20th and Market. I really don't have words to describe the feeling.

That must have been awesome, your lucky you got to witness one. I tried to make it to the Red Sox rally in 07 but I had a test the next day and wouldnt make it back to NY in time.
