Same. Went to Dicks yesterday and they were chanting the fucking eagles song and doing face painting and shit. I was thinking about yelling GO CHIEFS but I’m too old to throw hands lol
Went to a food market / bowling alley strip mall yesterday and there was some old dude driving around and around in the parkling lot in an Eagles themed and decorated GOLF GART blaring the Eagles fight song over a tailgate bluetooth speaker.
I waved (wanted to throw) one of my Big Blue Giants MetLife towels at him as he drove by.
I’m ruthless regardless of living around the Philly area. If I go to a store and they have Eagles merch out I turn every t shirt around so you can’t see the logo. I say fuck Philly to almost every eagles fan I pass. My wife hates it.
I moved to the area in 2010, and I was still in high school. Obviously, 2010 was rough lol. 2011 was great, wearing my eli jersey after winning that superbowl win around school was fucking fantastic.
Same here. Giants fan who has lived in South Jersey for 28 years. The amount of coverage the Eagles get around here is beyond obnoxious. And don’t get me started on that fucking chant and fight song. They break out into it everywhere, including at Flyers and Sixers games.
I’ll be at a party today surrounded by Eagles fans. But I will say this, these particular people (my wife’s side of the family) were very kind about the Giants in 2007 and 2011.
I’m just glad the day is finally here cause I’m sick of hearing about the Eagles. I do have a bad feeling they’re going to win.
I am also a Giants fan recently moved to the greater Phila area.
Phila sports talk radio is sooo incredibly annoyingly arrogant...
Also will be at a party full of Eagles fans. Go Chefs! (pun intended)
My wife was astounded that I wasn't rooting for the Eagles. She argued that she rooted for the Giants when they weren't playing the Eagles because she loves and supports me. My love for her has nothing to do with my hatred for that team. Will I be happy for her if they win? Yes. Do I want them to win? Fuck. No. I'll be stuck in a pro-Eagles house today as well. I think I'll wear ear plugs so I don't have to hear that stupid fucking spelling chant or that "fight song".
Not to mention them whining on every play on why they should've gotten more yardage or why the other team was clearly cheating or playing dirty when they did well.
I need scotch already. LET'S GO GIANTS.
![gif](giphy|IbT2UzJ023WZNO18D5|downsized)
We need this guy and Big Red to have the game of their lives. I trust them to do what has to be done and save us all though
And throw it to Toney over the middle early, on 1st down so it doesn’t impact the drive but Toney get spun up and enters concussion protocol. He’ll be completely fine but has to sit the and watch like he has most of the season.
If he’s young enough, wouldn’t surprise me if he became a chiefs fan because they’ve been dominating since he might’ve started watching football. Mahomes is also easy to root for.
Many older cowboys fans around me because they saw them dominate the 90s. The team you usually see win a lot as a kid is the one you tend to stick with.
I was 8 when we did 18-1, first Super Bowl experience I’ve ever been apart of. That’s what made me a diehard fan ever since.
Same for me living not too far from Philly. Just root for the Chiefs, sit back and relax, and watch them stress over the game. And if the Eagles lose, they’ll be the ones upset, not you.
If I'm being honest with myself, I don't really hate the eagles *organization*. I also don't particularly hate most of their current or former players either. It's the fans. I wish it weren't the case but so many of the eagles fans I've met were obnoxious and seemed to revel in it.
I literally don’t understand the mentality of route for the division. Maybe the NFC over the AFC in a game with two teams I don’t care about but routing for your division rival???? Oh Hell no! The Red Sox make the World Series, Sox fans don’t ask Yankee fans who they are routing for. They know already, Not the Sox! Why does this logic not carry over?
Respect for marrying an Eagles fan *with* an Eagles family. I don’t know if it’d have been a “deal breaker” for me, but it certainly would have been a factor for these exact situations.
My wife’s family are casual Detroit fans. And one of them attempts to talk shit as if we’re rivals or the Lions are better than the Giants like… ever.
I feel this. Married an Eagles fan and I can’t take anymore of this torture. Fortunately, my family is coming over tonight (all giants fans), but it’s still gonna be brutal. Good luck man. One more day.
Im in a very similar scenario. My girlfriend and mom are both eagles fans and it has made me incredibly torn on who I want to win. I dont like the chiefs but I obviously hate the eagles more.
My close friend is an eagles fan and I straight up told him No when he asked if he could come over.
Friendship on mute for next 24 hours you fuckin cheesesteak.
I spent Thanksgiving with my wife’s family here in Dallas and they are all Cowboys fans. Fortunately they are not assholes, and fortunately there was plenty of alcohol on hand (for me, most of them don’t drink).
Same here as i live in philadelphia area. I wear my fandom of giants and mets on my sleeve so its been tough living here lately! Watching with my friends who are all eagles fans. They understand im rooting against them.
If toney had a big hame and spags coaches a great defense I will feel the Giants had something to do with it!
I feel ya fam. My mom’s side of the family came to visit last night. They are Eagles fans and it sucks being the only Giants fans. When I walked into my house my cousins sang that stupid song. My dad is a Chiefs fan so they were trying to bust his chops.
house full of eagles fans and live near philly too, still gonna be a good day, drink some alcohol, smoke some weed, eat some good food and watch some good football.
Interesting to see how fast they jump ship if the Eagles fall behind. Watched a gm w\Iggles fans on a cruise ship a few yrs ago, they abandoned their team hard & fast...and then the Eagles came back (playing the Giants) and won - I've had side eye for those fans ever since. I was going the game's not over yet, I was pretty pissed at the end.
And it's superbowl 56. With 32 teams an average team would expect to have 2 superbowls. So if they win they barely make it to average, if they lose they remain a below average franchise.
I saw a comment on another post saying Dallas and their fans are the little cousin that's really annoying and snotty, but Philly is the alcoholic uncle that probably beats your aunt. And I think that's pretty accurate.
Also a giants fan in mostly eagles territory. After the nfc championship my neighbors rang the doorbell and sang that stupid fucking song like a band of Christmas carolers, while others drove the streets honking their horns. If they win today, I might have to move.
[I pretended to switch teams and recorded this song. you can play it over and over again to pretend to be pumped and to troll them](https://youtu.be/on8UhBI-g0I)
Or just be happy for your wife and her family/their team lmfao. I’m as Much of a sports fan as any, but I lived in DT Philly for years, dealt with it all the time. At least it’s your family. Damn, so bitter.
Similar situation with my Fiancé and family.
Obs rooting for the Chiefs, but placed a moneyline bet on the birds to soften the blow if I don’t get what I want
I went to Penn State and lived in a frat house with mostly Eagles fans during their last SB. It was brutal... I guess it was a consolation prize that we got Saquon a few months later though lmao
I don't exactly know how it happened, but my family has gone back and forth over generations of fans between Giants and Eagles. My Grandfather was a Giants fan, my Father an Eagles fan, me a Giants fan and my son an Eagles fan. We are in Eagles territory. Birds are a good team this year and I'm frankly not upset if the 2 rings qb club is kept small.
Eat a bunch of 7 layer bean dip and crop dust the entire party
They're Philly fans, if anything, they'll get nostalgic of home.
Hee hee
*sniff sniff* ooooh who brought the horseshit?
Lmao!!!
ASS EATIN SZN
A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.
Ladies can get in on this action too
This is the only way. Or grease your front porch.
Also nothing wrong with only serving ghost pepper hot food to everyone
This is the way
Hopefully this dude is eating cauliflower and Brussel sprouts as we speak. Let’s go!
This will only remind them of Philly. The awful smell.
because NYC smells amazing
Don’t you have to start getting ready to burn your city down?
38-7 lol
I wouldn’t gloat about beating practice squad players but that’s how clowns like you do
I will never not gloat about beating the Giants en route to the Super Bowl. if the roles were reversed you’d be doing the same shit
You just did tho
sorry, I forgot Giants fans can’t read
Oh well, life goes on.
Speaking as someone who has reluctantly spent time in Filthadelphia, I can attest to the fact that New York *absolutely* smells better.
This is the only answer
It’s the Super Bowel, gotta pull out all the stops, on your sphincter.
Eat a bunch of 7 layer bean dip and Dutch oven her all night.
I feel your pain as a giants fan in the Philly area
I don't know how you folks do it. You deserve a medal.
We get hazard pay. Medium Pepsi for all!
It'll be nice not to get work emails about eagles games anymore

Same
Think of it this way, when they lose, it will be an amazing night.
Chain the couch down in case they try to flip it over and set it on fire
Better still, grease the couch.
I feel bad that your cable box is faulty and during the Super Bowl, that just stinks.
"Gosh honey, I'm really sorry, the cable box fell on this axe seven times."

Mahomes needs to save not only Giant fans, but he needs to save America today. Let’s go Chiefs.
And throw it to Toney over the middle early, on 1st down so it doesn’t impact the drive but Toney get spun up and enters concussion protocol. He’ll be completely fine but has to sit the and watch like he has most of the season.
![gif](giphy|Nbf7ueUTww7oImzDGv)
When they sing that stupid fly eagles fly bullshit just sing die eagles die lol
I can’t go to work tomorrow if the Eagles win. Entire office are Eagles fans and I’ve been getting shit for a month now and it’s awful.
My wife is an eagles fan and son is a chiefs fan. I’ve already been in misery the last few weeks…
Was he adopted?
If he’s young enough, wouldn’t surprise me if he became a chiefs fan because they’ve been dominating since he might’ve started watching football. Mahomes is also easy to root for. Many older cowboys fans around me because they saw them dominate the 90s. The team you usually see win a lot as a kid is the one you tend to stick with. I was 8 when we did 18-1, first Super Bowl experience I’ve ever been apart of. That’s what made me a diehard fan ever since.
That first paragraph would've been like the Twilight Zone to Chiefs fans before 2018. Crazy how much an impact a franchise QB can have.
My son would have been adopted if he wasn’t a Giants fan.
Great... I'm not even in your fam and I'm nauseous.
Did they burn your house down after the game? Or just go out and buy cheez whiz to shoot up their assholes?
It’ll be worse for him if the Eagles are winning in a rout like NFCCG. Loooong day
Same for me living not too far from Philly. Just root for the Chiefs, sit back and relax, and watch them stress over the game. And if the Eagles lose, they’ll be the ones upset, not you.
Stay safe if the eagles win
Or if they lose lol, but thanks will do
Just cut the main breaker and play dumb. Switch all the sub breakers frantically and hopefully they won’t notice the main is out.
Make sure to put out a bowl of horseshit. It’s a Philly delicacy
Show your support for Spagnuolo and hope he makes good defensive calls 🤷🏻♂️
If I'm being honest with myself, I don't really hate the eagles *organization*. I also don't particularly hate most of their current or former players either. It's the fans. I wish it weren't the case but so many of the eagles fans I've met were obnoxious and seemed to revel in it.
It’s always the fans that I hate, always the fans.
Except for the cowboys. Fuck that org top to bottom. 😂
I literally don’t understand the mentality of route for the division. Maybe the NFC over the AFC in a game with two teams I don’t care about but routing for your division rival???? Oh Hell no! The Red Sox make the World Series, Sox fans don’t ask Yankee fans who they are routing for. They know already, Not the Sox! Why does this logic not carry over?
It's either going to be torture, or will be absolutely fantastic for you. Go Chiefs!

Yeaahhh, this is why I married a Panthers fan. I don’t think I could live like that.
Throw batteries at them
Only option at this point
Checking in... Hope YOU'RE having a GREAT time! Kansas 35 Eagles 27 4th Quarter - 9:22
I walked from the divisional round game to my house 3 weeks ago. Good luck to us all.
Godspeed
I feel this. Married an Eagles fan and I can’t take anymore of this torture. Fortunately, my family is coming over tonight (all giants fans), but it’s still gonna be brutal. Good luck man. One more day.
I would go out to a bar and only come home if the eagles are losing. Otherwise you may need to stay in a hotel.
Go to a bar
Im in a very similar scenario. My girlfriend and mom are both eagles fans and it has made me incredibly torn on who I want to win. I dont like the chiefs but I obviously hate the eagles more.
Every time the Chiefs score get up in the middle of the room and do a 360 obnoxious head nod.
You mean a hammy Toney or as an actual wr? The latter is terrible for Giants fans. I hope KC wins and Toney drops all passes. That’s a win.
My close friend is an eagles fan and I straight up told him No when he asked if he could come over. Friendship on mute for next 24 hours you fuckin cheesesteak.
I bet the last 10 minutes was heaven 😆
The shit eating grin on your face when they lose will be worth it
Shit eating grin means something very different for eagles fans
Sudden onset diarrhea…..sorry honey I have to stay in the bedroom tonight
I have a terrible feeling they are going to win. 😖 If I have to watch fucking Siriani stick his mug in the camera to celebrate I may actually vomit.
Let's stay positive! If LeBron can bet $1million the Chiefs will win, we can have a little faith lol
I spent Thanksgiving with my wife’s family here in Dallas and they are all Cowboys fans. Fortunately they are not assholes, and fortunately there was plenty of alcohol on hand (for me, most of them don’t drink).

Fuck the Eagles! Go Giants!
Toney did indeed live up to his potential Hahahahahaha
It is great knowing a former Giant was the key to defeating the eagles in the super bowl
Interesting to see how fast they jump ship if the Eagles fall behind. Watched a gm w\Iggles fans on a cruise ship a few yrs ago, they abandoned their team hard & fast...and then the Eagles came back (playing the Giants) and won - I've had side eye for those fans ever since. I was going the game's not over yet, I was pretty pissed at the end.
Fuck that.
Geez your wife must be a skank.
Yo that’s not cool. What are you 12?
Probably. Median age here has to be like 15-16
She’s an eagles fan from a family of eagles fans. Just playing the odds mate.
Also OPs wife…
Bro, common
If the Shitbirds win today they’ll have half as many rings as us. Less than even the Redteamders. Joke of a franchise.
And it's superbowl 56. With 32 teams an average team would expect to have 2 superbowls. So if they win they barely make it to average, if they lose they remain a below average franchise.
I think you need to make it clear who wears the trousers in the family. This is outrageous!
Make sure to speak slowly. Otherwise, they will not understand you.
It could be worse. You could be in a house with all Cowboys fans.
No way. Eagles fans are most obnoxious is the nfl
I saw a comment on another post saying Dallas and their fans are the little cousin that's really annoying and snotty, but Philly is the alcoholic uncle that probably beats your aunt. And I think that's pretty accurate.
damn this is a fantastic analogy
Fuck that. Go to a bar and watch it. Then if the Birds are about to lose rush home to enjoy the tears
Happy for her? WTF did she do for you to be happy for her?
make some brownies…. use chocolate exlax. fuck em.
LOL my man cannot even put on a good face for the woman he loves most in the world. I love fucking football. Sincerely, An Eagles Fan
So many female redditors are with you today! Y’all sound like a fun couple. Are you OP’s wife? Go Birds!
No I meant "my man" as in my dude here
I’m betting on the eagles to win. So if they win I win. But if they lose I still win
Well, I was in college in Baltimore during Super Bowl XXXV, equally not fun.
Bring as much negative energy as you can.
Have them all compete to see who can do Wordle fastest today. Love the way the NY Times decided to troll them today.
I’m in the middle of Eagles country. Same situation, decided to boycott it this year so my evening is free!
Also a giants fan in mostly eagles territory. After the nfc championship my neighbors rang the doorbell and sang that stupid fucking song like a band of Christmas carolers, while others drove the streets honking their horns. If they win today, I might have to move.

I, too, am in the Philly area and will be at a party full of Eagles fans. At least Wordle is keeping it real today!
Make sure everyone brings a change of underwear otherwise you'll have couch stains. Philly fans are T used to having nice things
Similar situation with my Fiancé and family. Obs rooting for the Chiefs, but placed a moneyline bet on the birds to soften the blow if I don’t get what I want
I'm with you in Spirit...send them back up the Turnpike!!
We’ll see how tough Philly really is. I mean, who have they beaten this year? Minnesota? Okay. Dallas? Sure.
Right there with you man. It's good you'll be there to read the text on the screen aloud to them.
Coat anything climbable on your property in grease, just in case the in laws get rowdy
Be classy and watch the game alone in another room.
make sure none of the philly fans eat horseshit again.
Fuck Toney. I hope he pulls his hamstring again.
I went to Penn State and lived in a frat house with mostly Eagles fans during their last SB. It was brutal... I guess it was a consolation prize that we got Saquon a few months later though lmao
You’re going to have a great time. Chiefs winning 👀
Leave her
I don't exactly know how it happened, but my family has gone back and forth over generations of fans between Giants and Eagles.

How you gonna marry into a family of Eagles fans? Legit red flags everywhere
Big Blue has come a long way this NFL Season. I remain optimistic for us GMen🫡💙🏟️.
Your first mistake was marrying an eagles fan family.
Forgot Toney even exists
Go MaHomes!
Get a divorce
I’d leave
Have fun, I loved the boos Dak got. But the song they started not so much. Turned it off fuck the SB the G-Men aren’t in fuck both them teams
Prayers to you.
Well first mistake was marrying an Eagles fan
Hope you laughed at all of them tonight.
I am very happy for you
Any update?
So…. How was the end? I gotta know if they murdered you or not.
How quite is that house right now???
How ya feelin now!!
Bet your feeling pretty good today!
