Sarah Palin booed in Philadelphia before Flyers-Rangers game
 

As much as I disagree with her being McCain's VP pick, I wouldn't boo her at a sporting event!

I don't know what she or the flyer mgt were thinking. This is the same city that threw snow balls at Santa clause and were taunting Michael Irvin when he had a serious injury.

Funny. I have to say that she looked pretty good in that clip, though! She's finally getting rid of that stupid half-up do she usually sports. She actually looked like a woman from this century at the game!

She has pretty much helped to fuel all the "rage" behavior going on in the Rep's side at their rallies. Maybe this will serve as a wake-up call for her now that she's received a taste of her own medicine. :confused: (being boo'd and jeered at)

Lol. Really?!

Definitely, especially since Philly fans hardly, if ever, boo anyone.

Please tell me that you're being sarcastic. That, or you've never been to an event in Philadelphia.

Complete and utter sarcasm. I happen to be a bit of a sports fan (again, sarcasm), so I know the reputation of Philly fans. I don't think the reality is nearly as bad as the reputation, but yeah, they've booed a few people in their day.

Yup, it's a hostile crowd. Though they got nothing compare to soccer fans. Now those guys are hostile to the point that it's tribal warfare.

Back to Philly, we New Yorkers got nothing when it come to hostility toward anybody who isn't party of the Philly sport's world. It's probably being bitter.

video from the stands point of view.

I love this description, because now I can describe how I wear my hair to the gym. But, mine is done that way to get the hair off my neck and out of my way.

I love how the music is pumped super loud right as they announcing her name. I almost feel bad for the little kid. But then part of me really wonders if Palin honestly thought she was NOT going to get booed.

And for being a huge hockey mom/fan, she does not know how to do a puck drop. I don't care if its ceremonial, you still put in the effort.

Doesn't it seem odd that the 6-year old is NEVER in school. Is she home-schooled by the First Dude?

The 6 year old and the middle child is always campaigning with mom. I assume they are home schooled.

I live near Philly. The only reason that she was invited was that the chairman of Comcast Spectacor (the owner of the Flyers and several companies,) Ed Snider is a Republican and a die hard supporter of McCain.

Trust me, the team has been taking a lot of heat over their decision over the past week or so.
